WARNING : "The Legacy of Tears" is gloomy, depressing, and I'm giving it a PG-13 rating for language and adult situations.

For those of you looking for the story, you can skip this part.  It contains only my rambling.  Why?  Because I'm the author, that's why!  *g*
 
 

Parts I-III can be found at Andy's fanfic archive, and also on my new web page :

A number of people have asked me questions/made comments about this saga.  And since I have nothing better to do (well, I do, but that's another story) I decided to answer them here.

1)  Why am I writing "Devon, Alone"?  Because I wanted to thrust some of the characters into a completely different scenario and see how they react.  Besides this, I write for personal enjoyment.  Sometimes it doesn't seem that way when I just *can't* get a scene done, but there's a real feeling of personal satisfaction when a piece is finished and I'm happy with it!

2)  The ratings on "Devon, Alone".  I tend to overrate my work rather than underrate it, just to make sure that anyone who may be offended by such things isn't caught out.

3)  Why did this part take so long to get written?  Well, it's twice the length of a 'regular' part of the series, so consider it two at once!  And then there was the D&D webpage to contend with, and discovering A.j.'s brilliant fanfic...it's no wonder I was distracted!
 

Firstly, as always, to Sue Sadler for her endless reading of scenes and racking her brains when I have writer's block.  Her suggestions are a wonderful part of this saga, and it wouldn't be  nearly as interesting without her.  She has an incredible flair for wording difficult situations and always gives me great feedback!

Thanks to Robin, Sue, Janice and Becky for their wonderful encouragement.  Without that, I don't think this would be finished yet!

And...to everyone on the Earth 2 mailing list that I drove crazy with my "Throwing people out of airlocks" questions, THANK YOU!  I learnt a lot, and even though I ended up avoiding a lot of this topic in the actual story, the information was great! Thanks especially to Cheryl and Bettina, and also to Simon, Cutter, Erik (and we all know where *his* comments led!) Doug, Cocoa, Michael, Aladdin, Mai, Sue, Paul, Brian, and if I've forgotten anyone please accept my humblest apologies. :) Mary opened my eyes to some thoughts on the Council that I had overlooked - thanks.
 
Junis...your comments as you read the half-written scenes are always great.

The idea behind the saga, however, is mine!  :)  Now on to the story... The Legacy of Tears.
