Just because we're at the right point in We're Off to See the Wizard, I thought that I'd mention an older story of mine. It deals with the little side comments Amanda and Lee made about the flasher on the Senate Park bike path. I wrote it when I was on a long trip to a family reunion last summer. It was a lot of fun to write and kept me entertained on the plane and in the car. If you haven't seen it yet, check it out here: www.fanfiction.net/s/9448768/1/Gone-in-a-Flash

I always enjoy reading stories by Jestress. I also love Scotch Thoughts and Window Reflections. I have read everything on fanfiction.net. Most of the stories I have liked. Some I thought were well written; however, I didn't care for the story. Personal taste. What can I say. There were only two stories that I found so distasteful that couldn't finish them. There is one story that I read when I first started reading fan fic that I found very endearing and I re-read it periodically. Blind Through a Blizzard? by Anonymous 7. It is on www.fanfiction.net. It was published on 3/31/02. id 672080.

OK--Kiwismh, on JWWM, requested a fanfic about the blue shirt Amanda wears in WOTSTW, though I think she had in mind something gutter-worthy. I’ve been thinking, since kiwismh suggested it, that I might have a whirl at this. The idea has been brewing in the back of my scary mind since then, and bubbled over today (good or bad)… I’ve written something, but despite my willingness to fall into the gutter time and again on JWWM and Ned’s (!!!), I tried to keep it more true to where I thought the characters were at the point of WOTSTW. I love the way SMK unfolded and hoped to not do any injustice by it, if that makes any sense… Anyway, if anyone would care to beta it for me—before I loose it on any other unsuspecting souls here on Ned's—I would greatly appreciate it. Feel free to PM me here, or email me if you’ve already been in contact. (Kiwismh, since you were the inspiration, it would be great if you were able... hint, hint. Of course, I'd understand if a PG fic wouldn't motivate you. ) Oh, and thank you to everyone here and at JWWM for loving SMK so much and for bouncing around so many ideas and points of view. I consider this a collaboration. I haven't written any fanfiction before--memes have been my outlet... BTW kiwi--here's the shirt... flipped, just for you:

Hey KC, would love to beta this for you. Iwsod has my email address if you need to contact me direct. PG is fine by me. I prefer things to stay reasonably true to the characters and the events (until about mid S4 of course when the show itself went kind've AU).

Hi there, can anybody help me. I am looking for a fanfic story which I read recently, maybe about 2 month ago on fanftiction.net and now I cannot find it anymore. It seems it is gone. Unfortunately I do not remember the author or the title.
The story was about Amanda and Lee going to one of those parties together, I think the party had something to the with the fire department and Amanda was wearing a fabulous red dress. Lee was really distracted by that dress and was behaving kind of clumsy and finally spilling Champagne all over the dress. With that they had to leave early and Amanda was changing the gown for jeans in his apartment and Lee was so surprised that she was still looking so stunning, even in jeans…
Does anybody know where to find this story?
Thank you!

I remember that story, Mara, but don't remember the name, either. I'll see if I can help search it out for you.

Thank you! Was it The Distraction by CGBear? www.fanfiction.net/s/7895240/1/The-Distraction

Mara -- I remember that fic, and from Googling, I think it might be "Simply Irresistible" by SpyGirl1969. Unfortunately -- yes -- her page on fanfiction.net appears to be gone --> her stories with it. Someone might've saved that one, though, since there's been sites disappearing recently... people have recommended, e.g., on yuku, saving any fics you really like.

I tried cheating and using the Wayback Machine to locate SpyGirl1969's old fanfiction.net profile, but it didn't work. It was never archived. If that story was ever published on another website, though, you could try to locate that one. archive.org/web/

Hi debylin, KC and jestress – thanks so much for your help. Jestress, it was not the story from CGBear, but partly very similar, just read that one, did not know it before and liked that one also very much. KC, yeeees it was "Simply Irresistible" by SpyGirl1969. Now that I read the name, I also remember that there were more stories from SypGirl1969 which I really liked. Too sad, that the profile and all stories are gone. I was also searching as jestress suggested but did not find anything. KC you said, that people have recommended to save any fics you really like on , e.g., on yuku. But I assume you have to ask the Author first before saving any story anywhere else, right? And I love so many of these stories, might take me forever getting permission and saving all these somewhere else It is really too sad, that these sites are disappearing recently. Why is this? Do the fanfic authors decided to delete their profiles or is it a technical issue? Hey SpyGirl1969 if you come across this thread, I want to tell I really liked your fanfic stories very much, so if you want to reconsider and post them again, you would definitely make one dedicated smk fan very happy !
