new fic for dS snippets

Title : What's in a Name? What's in this Rose?
Fandom : due South
Pairing : Benton Fraser / Ray Kowalski
Characters : Benton Fraser, Ray Kowalski, mention of Ray Vecchio
Rating : Teen and Up
Length : 255 words

Prompts : The challenge prompts are "wicked," "glamor," "charisma," "astray," and "I am a poison and I am fun"...and I applied my own usual personal dS_snippets challenge by which I further challenge myself : to use all the prompts in the one snippet. (In this case I did not exactly quote the phrase-prompt, but used the words "poison" and "fun" in close proximity to each other.)

Summary : There's fun and there's passion and there's WTF and IDEK about the names by which the Rays call Fraser.

my due South fanfic to be presented at profic literary festival

It's the 10th Annual Saints & Sinners GLBTQ Literary Festival in New Orleans, and I've been chosen to be one of the featured writers at the Festival...the first time in the Festival's 10-year history that a fanfic writer has been chosen to do a reading of their work at the Festival. The fic I'll be presenting is my F/K apocalypse! fic Getting Buried in Buffalo Jump.

TYK to butterflyghost for writing as-yet-unpublished "inspired by" snippets and to spuffyduds for causing me to commit apocalypse!fic (under the influence of spuffy's heartbreaking and yet beautiful The Last Step is to the Side).
