I have no contact info for Dollylux so I'm bearing my soul [part II] and publically posting the letter I wanted to write to her.
--------------
Hello,
Unsure how to start this, as it's a bit out of left field, so I'm going to just start;
I started a Wincest J2 bookclub over on Pillowfort and your Ballard of the Invisible Boy was the first fic I posed for discussion.
It's a fic that is revered by all my friends and I'd read it once before.
I wouldn't take up your time by going into it here, but I picked your story first for the group to review and share their feelings because I feel I wasn't the right audience for it and I want to understand what I'm missing.
I'm anticipating people to rake me over the coals for my opinion, friends have already expressed their displeasure at what my biggest take away was.
And because of that, I wanted to let you know a discussion was happening [Here:
Wincest_J2_Booclub ] so you are aware and don't think this is going on behind your back, or a means to single you out, or anything antagonistic like that.
Your story was chosen first because I want to foster discussion and enlightenment because not one person has all the answers (very obviously not me) and because things affect everyone differently and I wanted to see that.
I'm going to do a bit more 'marketing' and see if I can't get more people to post their own Replies so the community can begin to hive around this and generate discussion.
Best,

PS. If you can't get into Pillowfort I have an extra user on hand I'm willing to give you.
