| DNPLC |
Author has written 9 stories for Perry Mason. DNPLC stands for Della and ('n) Perry's Love Child!--I was obviously a "change of life" baby for them, LOL! Re-runs of the show saved me from my family's "House of Horrors" when I was a wittle kid. I'm a former network news (associate) producer and currently make my living (that's a loose term, mind you!) as a well-published freelance writer in Manhattan. I adore Perry and Della almost as much as I adore Barbie and adored Ray. My main goal is to try and exploit what the writers in the series and movies have given us and, more than anything else, try and write to the character. Each time I have to write a line for one of them, I sit and visualize it coming out of their mouth, age-appropriate for the time. If I can't see it, I won't write it. A little of the real life Barbie and Ray may slip in every now and then, both verbally and their characteristics. That will bother some readers and comfort others; me, it comforts and I guess the writer has to be happy first. Yes? I will be cataloging the stories in the next couple of days as either those that are supposed to work in a unified narrative or those that are stand alone. Anyway, am enjoying the amazing people of the Fanfic community--they are the best! | |||||||
1. The Woman Behind the Man: Della Street » reviewsRevised Chapt 4, 5 coming...Happy Birthday Barbie Hale and Della Street! Happy Secretaries Week (last.) This Lauren Jeffries' "Woman Behind the Man" profile from Metropolitan Magazine, February, 1991 . It's coming in several parts as a week-long celebration!Perry Mason - Rated: K+ - English - Mystery/Drama - Chapters: 5 - Words: 18,589 - Reviews: 27 - Updated: 5-4-13 - Published: 4-18-13 - Della S. & Perry M.2. TCOT Lost Love Redux reviewsI started this in "Sorrowful Secretary" and finish the idea here but what happened between the Perry-Della-Laura#1 triangle in 1987? A tiny bit spicy. This is complete; no more chapters forthcoming. As I went to post this I see other friends have written about LL, too, hope not too much overlap-can't wait to read all I've missed last 2 days!Perry Mason - Rated: T - English - Chapters: 1 - Words: 7,831 - Reviews: 6 - Published: 3-20-13 - Della S. & Perry M. - Complete3. TCOT Sorrowful Secretary » reviewsALL CHAPTERS ARE IN...there may be an epilogue. This is an addendum to TCOT Heartbroken Bride. Perry, Perry, Perry...how could you? Is she or isn't Kaitlynn Parrish his daughter. The consensus seems to be that she is. Is there anything that can make such a travesty right? As usual, only the utterly perfect Della Street knows for sure. There is Spice.Perry Mason - Rated: T - English - Romance/Mystery - Chapters: 9 - Words: 27,359 - Reviews: 33 - Updated: 3-17-13 - Published: 3-15-13 - Della S. & Perry M.4. TCOT Defiant Della reviewsWhat did Della mean when she said she hadn't been very truthful with interview subject, Sarah Andrews, Richard Stewart's secretary in TCOT Defiant Daughter? This was written upon request from a FF reader and since I had been ruminating on it for a while already I was happy to take on the assignment. There's a bit of spice but it is a short one chapter affair!Perry Mason - Rated: T - English - Romance/Drama - Chapters: 1 - Words: 7,634 - Reviews: 8 - Published: 3-3-13 - Della S. & Perry M. - Complete5. TCOT Jilted Junior » reviewsCHAPTER 2 NOW UP-SPICE ALERT How exactly did Paul Drake, Jr. get in the picture? I have been working on this for months, as it is an all-out mystery and after the first initial set up chapters, more chapters will be added slowly so it can evolve.Perry Mason - Rated: T - English - Mystery/Drama - Chapters: 2 - Words: 7,492 - Reviews: 16 - Updated: 3-1-13 - Published: 2-28-13 - Della S. & Perry M.6. TCOT Tell Tale Kiss » reviewsFinal Chapter! TCOT Tell Tale Talk Show Host why does Perry say he's been waiting so long? For that one little kiss? When Heaven knows there have been so many? Why is that one so special?Perry Mason - Rated: T - English - Drama/Romance - Chapters: 12 - Words: 33,013 - Reviews: 52 - Updated: 2-20-13 - Published: 2-8-13 - Della S. & Perry M. - Complete7. TCOT Missed Chance » reviewsWhat if D&P were only friends until she was arrested for murder? I don't believe it, btw-it's pretty clear they had a decades-long relationship, which is why I didn't post this when I wrote it. But there are those who believe. So here's another take on that 8 yr separation we all seem to hate. SPICE ALERT. You might want to skip the last 2 chapters. :)Perry Mason - Rated: T - English - Romance/Drama - Chapters: 6 - Words: 19,415 - Reviews: 29 - Updated: 1-30-13 - Published: 1-28-13 - Della S. & Perry M. - Complete8. The Case of the Evil Eight » reviewsWhat kind of tragedy would have torn Perry from Della for almost 8 years? I've always hated that separation because it is inconsistent with the characters and story. I wrote this to make myself feel better. All critiques welcome!Perry Mason - Rated: T - English - Suspense/Romance - Chapters: 9 - Words: 21,439 - Reviews: 48 - Updated: 1-24-13 - Published: 1-22-13 - Della S. & Perry M. - Complete9. TCOT Day They Met » reviewsHow did Della come to work for Perry? This is how I envision it-chose the date based on Della's "over 40" years comment in TCOT Defiant Daughter, 1990. I try to write "to" the characters imagining dialogue but not how they might say it. DS in particular often seems misrepresented. This story lays groundwork for upcoming stories, which will be more uh...physical.
