HOLY, MOLY GUACOMOLE.

HOLY CRAP!

That first one about Peggy is amazing, lady! The shame! And the use of 'Judgement Day' as indicating the character you are talking of - without naming him - FABULOUS.

AND THEN THE PERFECT CHARACTERIZATION OF DON!?

Sarah! These are fantastic! I haven't read any Mad Men fic yet, but these are so in character and fabbo, you need to let other fans read them. I know I'm gushing, but it's my birthday and I'm allowed to. i also think it's got to do with being In HUGE BIG love with this show.

Thanks so much for writing these, hon. I know you struggle to find time. The fact you have here makes it so much more special.

*hugs and thanks for everything you are*

*grins maniacally*

I am so very happy that you liked these, hon! To be quite honest, I was actually relieved that my fic writing muse had awoken from the dead and begged me to write something... it's been ages since I've been so taken with a show that I needed to write fic; I was a bit worried it might never happen again!

I have posted these at madmen_tv (the only place I know of to post MM fic?) as per your lovely comments -- so thanks for the encouragement, yet again!

Have an absolutely FAB birthday, darling -- you most certainly deserve it. *hugs*

Glad you posted it, lady. Did you have many other muses of the MM fanfic? It's one of those shows you could write about forever and a day, I reckon. I feel very special to be the recipient of your first outing. xx

I have had a few little inklings for more MM writings... so will keep playing around with them and see how we go. I agree, there are so many rich layers in this show, it is literally BURSTING with food for thought. :)

What about YOU, missy... any thoughts about writing some MM fic yourself? Hmmm?

Oh, hooray for Mad Men drabbles! I love that you chose Peggy and Don as your first subjects--they are so darn inscrutable that they are almost demanding fic that delves underneath the surface.

Don's section; the waitress is "ripe" but he's lost his "appetite", was harsh, but oh so accurate. You found Don's voice and articulated it, in all it's sexy/repellent glory.

But it was Peggy's story that really floored me. I loved the whole Fr Gill storyline. I keep hoping they'll bring him back!

Great job, Sarah!

First of all, Viva, I've gotta tell you how much I LOVE your icon there!!

A thousand thank you's for the lovely feedback, hon - I was saying to Rosie that it has been such a long time since my muse has poked me hard enough to force me to write something, I was a little worried it might never happen again!

Don is such an interesting character; sometimes I really dislike him but other times I find myself almost falling under his 'spell', so to speak! And Peggy is awesome -- I'm enjoying finding out more of her story (I'm still only up to 2.05 so there's lots to go!) and like you, I really enjoyed all the Fr Gill interaction -- so much subtext!

I hope my muse will come up with more... I haven't found much MM fanfic around so far, so I may need to rectify the situation a little myself! *hugs*
