The Glass Slipper extended version

Have posted the extended version of The Glass Slipper, which has only taken me nearly, ahem, two months after it first made an appearance. If I'd hung on a bit longer, I could have pretended it was this year's Christmas fic. The link takes you to [livejournal.com profile] gilpins_tales, which I've started as a fic journal, mainly to keep all the fics in one place if anyone's interested in them, and also because I had lots of fun playing with all the pretty colours on a new LJ. I'm still doing a few things to it, but please nose around if you want to as I'd appreciate knowing if things are easy to find. And if the colours are pretty, lol.

Title: The Glass Slipper
Genre: Romance, humour
Rating & Warnings: PG-13 for mild swearing and not quite so mild innuendo.
Word Count: 7415
Summary: Cinderella shall go to the ball. And Remus is going with her... Christmas, OotP.
Author’s Note: The original for this was written for the [livejournal.com profile] metamorfic_moon Winter Wonderland Advent and can be found here. There was a word limit of 5000 there and I had to cut the story quite a bit to make it, particularly in the second half. This version restores one scene I regretted having to leave out, adds to several more, and probably makes the overall story a little darker - like all fairy tales? It also increases the daftness factor, so possibly I should have left well alone! Anyone brave enough to read it again and give feedback will be much appreciated. :)

So that's one fic down and the three I've got underway to go. Wonder if I can beat two months for the next one... ;)

Well I did spend quite a while on it, lol. I've probably got some maintenance I should do on the tags and such, but I think the time would be better spent writing...

That would be a hilarious fanfic; Dada writing in his LJ when he's supposed to be...doing whatever he does.
