Reactions and Reviews
[The Lost Innocence Affair]: This is a priceless little story, which despite being nearly a parody, has on-target characterization and a plot that could almost have been an episode. I could hear the dialogue in my head as I read, always the mark of an author with a real love for the characters. It also happens to be funny as hell. It's published as part of an online zine called "Taken to the Cleaners".[1]
[The Sunny Day Affair]: If, like me, you never grew up, you will instantly warm to this delightful, evocative piece which takes our two heroes on a magical and playful journey.You can almost smell the heat of a perfect summer's day, as the friends are roped into a highly unusual excursion. You will enjoy confusion and character quirks aplenty but there's something here, for me anyway, that whispers perfectly of the spirit of childhood, and the paradoxical innocence of this fandom's universe.
So take a nostalgic trip to a enviable world where it's always sunny in New York, friendship lasts forever and we will all grow up to be heroes.[2]
