Reactions and Reviews
1993
There's an M. Fae story in PAEAN TO PRIAPUS IV where Doyle expresses his unrequited love to Bodie. Actually, Bodie perhaps feels the same sort of love Doyle does, but is unable to acknowledge it. One of the most intriguing and unusual slash stories, in my opinion. I wouldn't mind seeing more stories with this theme, though it isn't the "traditional" happy ending. [1]
2003
M. Fae is another name that raises a great deal of disagreement within Pros fandom. Many like her tendency toward darkness, her bittersweet (or just plain unhappy) endings and her sometime tendency toward kink, but others find her too bleak, harsh, or depressing. Personally, I adore M. Fae.
That said, A Call of Nature is one of her bleaker stories, and one that I love beyond words. Ray Doyle makes a small error in judgment, but the repercussions are far beyond what he expects.
M. Fae has an unflinching honesty, a particular kind of integrity with regard to the "truth" of her narrative; it's an uncommon willingness to the see a story through to the (possibly bitter) end. Her emotional investment resonates and draws a reciprocal response from me.[2]
