I was planning on writing some reflections, but am now much too tired. Will have to wait until tomorrow. And the icon has nothing to do with the fic, I just happened to find it a very short while ago and fell in love.
In one of the books the key to everything is a French letter, and she was forced by the publishers to include a translation. *g* *shakes head* Philistines.
You might enjoy 'Five Red Herrings' then, since Peter works out a clue at the very beginning that 'the intelligent reader' is asked to work out for him/herself. (It's revealed at the end of course. But it's a neat trick!) Hmmmm. I shall take it under advisement. All the details of clues and times and such are still tedious to keep track of, but that might provide some incentive.
Although I expect showrunners to be evil (anything else would be a disappointment) Lol. I don't even know what to say to that.
I'll probably stay away from most discussions for fear of being spoiled... Ah, I suppose that would be a problem what with filming spoilers. That's too bad. I'm usually always thoroughly spoiled, but then, I'm never much bothered by knowing where a story is going and I enjoy the bizarre guessing game that is trying to sort out what all the drabs of information that leak out mean. And watching everybody loose their heads over little things blown out of proportion. That's always fun.
*shakes head* Philistines. Indeed. If people don't speak French, then that's their problem!
Hmmmm. I shall take it under advisement. All the details of clues and times and such are still tedious to keep track of, but that might provide some incentive. Well you don't HAVE to read them all in one go. That one is a pre-Harriet one in any case, so won't impact anything. (The thing that endears it to me now, is that it's set in Scotland, close to where my sister-in-law lives so I know all the places, more or less.)
Lol. I don't even know what to say to that. I come from the School of Joss, and know that all writers are out to get you!
And watching everybody loose their heads over little things blown out of proportion. That's always fun. Oh yes. But I am by nature a spoiler-phobe, although being *in* fandom is making it rather difficult. Still, people are very good about cutting, I have to say. My thing is for the story to surprise me, so the more surprised I am, the better. *g*
