Follow-up on previous fic-related stuff
Though I didn’t comment on it at the time, batzulger’s semi-sequel to “ Tea and Oranges” recently concluded. Originally titled “Another Number Heard From”, the story was then renamed “Ghosts in the Machine”, which I found 1) slightly less original, 2) considerably more euphonious, and 3) substantially more representative of what the story turned out ( Read more... ) -
