Kellie's 'Due South' Fanfiction

* * *

An Open Letter to Due South Slashfen about some fandom unpleasantness.
(12/21/00)

* * *

NOTE: Most of my older BF/RK stories which I have archived here on mrks.org have been slightly revised, due to the fact that since I originally wrote them I have developed a severe allergic reaction to the use of dialect. The old, original versions are still available on Hexwood, and links to both are available below.

Stories are generally catalogued by posting date, although in the case of a series, they are in 'series order'. Thus in most cases the newest works will be at the bottom of the page, but look for 'new' notifications if you're looking for stories within a series because those will be catalogued by where the story falls within the series rather than by posting date. Confusing enough for ya?

Also note, all but the first story on this page is Benton Fraser/Ray Kowalski slash. (For the newbie, "slash" generally includes graphic boy-on-boy sex, among other things. The term 'slash' comes from the / used to denote the pairing... it has nothing to do with violence) The first story is a Vecchio one, so if you're a BF/RK fan you might want to avoid that one, and if you're a BF/RV fan you can skip the rest. Although, frankly it's hard to read "The Catch" and have it make a much sense if you haven't read "The One That Got Away" first. :-)

And because I didn't know where else to put it, here is a link to the astrological analysis by myself and AuKestrel offering an alternate to the 'official' birthdays selected by members of Serge.
