1998

For the NC-17 fans out there (children avert your eyes), a first person Mulder look at the "Metamorphosis" of Dana Scully through the years, and then what happens to them on one evening. This one is not only going to steam up your monitor, but it contains an honesty too often lacking in the NC-17 genre. Really a beautiful piece. [1]

2000

I've been reading Annie's work since she first started posting to the X-Files archives. Her writing is simply gorgeous, with great attention to characterization and detail. She is one of the few Mulder/Scully 'shipper writers that I enjoy, and that's saying a lot, since I'm an avid noromo. (For those of you who don't follow XFness, a noromo is someone who adamantly does NOT want the two lead characters together in a romantic sense.) I was surprised to find that she wrote Buffyfic as well, and jumped right in to read. Frankly, however, I was expecting Buffy/Angel lovey-dovey mush. Boy was I surprised.

"Stealing all the Stars" is a shocking, glorious "what if" story. Buffy is a souless vampire, a riveting combination of sex, cruelty, and a passionate relationship with her consort. Annie takes everything that defines Buffy as a Slayer and twists it, turning her into a monster who is perhaps more terrifying than Angelus at his worst. She draws you in from the very first sentence, showing a nightmarish version of what could be.

Her greatest skill is atmosphere. She has the ability to describe the physical scene without losing the mood of the piece. I cannot recommend her enough.

Annie now has a website for her Buffyfic - The Buffy Fanfiction of Annie Sewell-Jennings. If you'd like to check out her other work, go to Broken Barriers. I highly recommend "Skin" - an alternate universe XF story set in Charleston, SC. Which just happens to be my hometown, and let me tell you, she describes it perfectly. [2]
