Story 230: "Diamonds and Rust" by Mustang Sally
I admit it. I have been resisting reading this fic solely because of the title. I'm an old hippie. The song, written and performed by Joan Baez, starts playing in my head the second I see it and I can't get it out again. But I've received several requests for this story over the years from a dear friend and loyal member of this community, so here it is at last.
TITLE: Diamonds and Rust (Not part of the Syntax Universe) [meaning her fic "Syntax and Measure"]
AUTHOR: MustangSally
DISTRIBUTION STATEMENT: ATX. Whatever
SPOILER WARNING: None [It was posted sometime in Fall, 1997]
CONTENT WARNING: NC-17 (Adult situations and language)
CLASSIFICATION: MSR
The Disclaimer: As Oscar Wilde said while going through customs "I have
nothing to declare except my genius."
The writer is top notch. I have it on excellent authority that the sex is hot.
And yeah, okay, the song is pretty good, too.
For feedback to the author, I don't think any of the old email addresses will work. But, you could PM her at mustangsally78. Getting feedback on old fic that you think no one new has heard of, let alone read in the past 10 years, is a Good Thing (I hope). Besides, you never know. She might write us something new.
Read Diamonds and Rust. (Also at Gossamer.)
