I'm Gem, and I love "Firefly" and I love to write and those two things sort of came together here. The River/Jayne pairing is, to me, the most interesting and addictive pairing of any fandom I've encountered. (Draco/Ginny would have to come in second.) They really do seem inevitable to me. Not that Joss would necessarily have gone there, but he didn't shy away from the odd pairing (Spuffy).
Someone asked me once what I would do if I won one of those gigantic lotteries, and my immediate response was that I would bribe (and finance) Joss Whedon to continue "Firefly" in some respect: TV show, more movies, OVA, graphic novel, I don't care. Helping the poor, curing cancer, sending my children to college...nah. More "Firefly."

"I aten't dead" as Granny Weatherwax would say. Just resting my eyes a bit, lol. A writer's block large enough to wink out the sun and real life issues have put PBP on a back burner, but it's not abandoned by any means. Trying to meld together disparate sections of necessary stuff into something fun and interesting to read is harder than I thought...
Thanks for your patience - Gem
You can check out the completed "Stand or Fall" on the Forecast: Rayne site - I think you do have to register to read M rated fics, though.
