I am hooked. This last part was amazing but it was also a tease. I vote for an nfic part! Anyone with me!

When I beta'd the part, I put in a strong request to Corrina for an nfic part. The fic just calls out for one. And she's such a poetic and wonderful writer, I know that the nfic part would be great.
Heck, the gfic seduction scene was hot hot hot! Somehow she managed to keep it PG-13. I've read more boring X-rated scenes in romance novels. Corrina got me all hot and bothered while still keeping strictly within the bounds of the boards.

I agree Corrina has a gift with writing nfic. She is gifted all around with her words but there are writers who write great fiction but don't do nfic well. Corrina does both with skill and class. She knows how to do romantic and sexy without going over the top into graphic and raunchy. I am glad you pleaded with her. Maybe if enough of us do that she will cave in to the request.  Not that this fiction could not survive without it. It is wonderful the way it is. I think nfic would only add to it, the icing on the cake, so to speak. I am looking forward to another fix on Monday, Tuesday in Australia!

I just realized, It's still a good 24 hours, at least, until the next part shows up   Michael

Goo has a very bad habit. Whenever we turn the final bend and the finishing line is directly ahead - but still a few thousand words away - he gets terribly distracted. He wants to re-visit fics that have sat dormant on my hard drive for months. He wants to re-read FDK. He wants to beta. He wants to do *anything* other than actually finish the darn story  We are right there now. I can see the end - actually the final scene is written, I just have to get to it. But Goo's not interested in the TMTY finish line. He's much more interested in writing a scene for another fic where Superman dances with Lois. So what does that have to do with your chances of getting another part tonight? Here's the plan. After I've fed my family, I'll go back to Part 12 and see if I'm happy with it. If I am, I'll post it. If I'm not, I'll go back to the final chapters and try to drive Goo to that finish line. Once it's written, the editing is easy - even with a distracted muse! Thanks for your interest! Corrina.

Looking forward to whatever goo spits out! Dancing with Superman huh? Sounds like a nice idea. Also looking forward to the rest of this story. G'night Goo, pleasant dreams. I hope you are bright and bushy tailed in the morning. Kiss your muse for me.

Thanks, Elizabeth. Michael - Goo and I have agreed there will be no more loooooooong stories for at least a few weeks. I *think* I know what will be the next 25+ part story. I have 5 parts already written. However, before I even open up that file, I want to work on a 2-parter called 'Asking Lois Out' and an 8-10 parter called 'Two Days Together'. (Note the title - two days - two! That means it can't grow and grow and grow.) Thanks, DW - I just posted the next part. Phew. It's written. Still needs to be edited and the final couple of parts betaed, but it's written.  Corrina.

First off: I noticed the teeny tiny 24 hour lapse between #15 and #16 so: And I take it as a projected posting schedule  Originally posted by Female Hawk:
However, before I even open up that file, I want to work on a 2-parter called 'Asking Lois Out' and an 8-10 parter called 'Two Days Together'.
(Note the title - [b]two days - two! That means it can't grow and grow and grow.)[/b] Well... not to scare Goo, but is he aware that while it took Clark only 2-3 Episodes from getting to know Lois to asking her out, it took them more than a year before she actually agreed? But then, you did only say *asking* her out, not her *agreeing*.  As for the two days. One can easily cram 20-40 parts into a two day story if one is motivated enough  Michael
