Quote: Such lovely, personal work... in tone, in mood, and laying out exactly why Dancer and Sarah are so very special. The melancholy reflections on returning to a place later in life hit pretty close to home for the board these days too...
As I recall that one appeared around Christmas one year. Quite often Sarah sent me her stories to proofread or edit (or finish!) but that one turned up fully formed and hightly literate.
As far as I know, most of the Dancer backstory was pretty much Shep backstory too. If her accounts of her European travels and Parisienne days were anything like true then she managed to tick off basically the whole checklist of Things A Girl Does In Paris, even down to the arrested for protesting and artist's modelling.
