As per Tank's request in the fanfic related forum, I'm posting this to let you know that I have a new story out on the archives this week that hasn't been posted on these boards. (Hope I'm posting this message in the right place ) Hope you enjoy it. Feedback more than welcome. ML [Just adding in to the post header that it's a feedback folder]

ML- This was wonderful . Thank you for posting here. I'm going to put some spoiler space since your post is so short and if someone opens this, I don't want to ruin it for them. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * I did figure out the Patrick thing FAIRLY early on - though I don't remember exactly when. I love that their love was enough to pull them out of it and that Patrick finally conceded that. Not sure I'm happy he mist-ified to get out of there *g*. I can also see why he didn't really believe it based on their meeting in WIEAK, but if he'd really been watching them at home etc. like he said, he should have realized it sooner. Must have had a green mist clouding his judgment! Thanks for posting that this was up! Carol

If she had to move heaven and Earth, perhaps come back to haunt Perry and explain the story after they'd killed her, she would do it.

Lovely, ML. And you are right - surely Lois and Clark's love is stronger than any other magic.

Not sure I'm happy he mist-ified to get out of there *g*. Yeah, I agree. On the other hand, it did allow me to invent a new word I can also see why he didn't really believe it based on their meeting in WIEAK, but if he'd really been watching them at home etc. like he said, he should have realized it sooner. Must have had a green mist clouding his judgment! Good point. I guess he didn't want to see the connection - until Lois forced him to do so. especially loved the LnC dialog Thanks. That was one of my favorite parts of this story, too. For some reason, the banter between them just seemed to flow in this story. Often, I find it a lot harder to do. So I'm glad you enjoyed it. As for Jennifer and... Well, that was an idea Carol gave me and I have to admit, I just love it. And for those of you who said you couldn't put it down... What a nice compliment. Thanks. Anyway, glad you enjoyed it. ML

Hi ML, I loved this story. It was just right for Samain. Oh, sorry, Halloween. The Druid 'magic' was inspired. Thanks for a great read. Yours Jenni

This was great! Thank you so much for sharing.
I enjoyed your version of what really happened to Patrick after his episode. Will there be more?

I've been trying to read this for the last three days, and was finally able to do so last night. This story kept me on the edge of my seat, chewing my nails waiting to find out who the shadow killer was, or who was going to die next. And the pure imagery of what happened when the killer showed his face... wow ... just wow. It's stories like this that make me wonder why I even *try* to compete. Oh, and I saw this ad on LJ today that just screamed Strongest Magic.

I know I'm late in posting feedback, but I really enjoyed this story. Perfect for the season: you took several mysterious deaths, added some great costumes, poured in a creepy deranged villian, simmered under a fantastic a-plot and sprinkled it with lots of good Lois & Clark lovin'. Delicious! Thanks for sharing your talent with us. BJ

I'm glad that you guys enjoyed the druid stuff and my use of Patrick as the bad guy. I know that a lot of people didn't like particularly like When Irish Eyes Are Killing so I was a little nervous about using him. I was also nervous about using druids - after all, I really didn't know much about druids. But it is amazing the amount of stuff you can find these days on the internet. And for the purposes of this story, I didn't even have to worry about whether or not the information was true Aromassa, I like that picture. I bet that is where Patrick got the idea of sending Lois a black rose you took several mysterious deaths, added some great costumes, poured in a creepy deranged villian, simmered under a fantastic a-plot and sprinkled it with lots of good Lois & Clark lovin'. DJ, you sound like someone who's cast one or two spells in your time ML

MLT, I just finished this one last night and enjoyed it! It was a great Halloween fic with a nice bit of skin-crawling creepiness but nothing too scary. Thank you for sharing it with us.

This was a really great fic and better than the WIEAK episode. I liked Collen & Erin coming back! This had a special ring for me since we just came back from Ireland. And yes, they talk a lot about Druids and stone circles there! A great choice for a Halloween story! Artemis

I just wanted to say again what I said in the comments on Vindication: Thanks so much everyone for your comments. Just because I haven't responded, please don't think I don't appreciate it. I had surgery near the beginning of November and am only now able to sit at the computer for any length of time. But I did want to let you know that I really do appreciate the comments. They've done a lot to boost my spirits. So thanks everyone. ML

I haven't had the chance to read, yet, but since many on these boards don't know your last name it might help if I post a link to your story. The Strongest Magic I'll be back with feedback. Elisabeth, the busybody
