Hello and happy Spring!

This month we're featuring Mersey who has all but disappeared from fanfic which makes me and lots of other people sad. When trying to pick a story to feature, she went back and forth between this one and her short stories. I think she's the queen of short stories. But in the end, she decided she would like to talk about this one.

I highly recommend you check out her page and read some of her short ones. One of my all time favorite shorts by her is The One With Nick.

Here is the link to 5 BSB's: http://absolutechaos.net/viewstory.php?sid=4359

If you have any comments or questions feel free to come in and ask and maybe...just maybe I can get her in here to answer them!

Happy Reading!

This story was so funny and clever!  I haven't read it in a long time; this would be a good month to reread it.  I hope Mersey will pop in!

I loved this story, when I saw Stranger Than Fiction I immediately thought someone stole y'alls idea LOL.

I was hoping Mersey would have popped in but knowing her, she probably doesn't remember her PW lol

And I thought the same thing, Rose!

This story is better than Stranger Than Fiction.  Cute premise, but from what I remember of that movie, it was kind of lame.

Thanks! From what I remember, I wasn't much impressed by the movie either which is weird because it was a Will Farrell movie and I usually love all of his stuff.

I don't remember much about it, which kinda says it all.  It wasn't horrible, but it wasn't good enough to be memorable.
