(1246 words)
This is my very first fic of any kind. So please let me know what you think so I can decide if I should keep writing.
2. Two by Satindoll [Reviews - 11] (1042 words)
3. Three by Satindoll [Reviews - 6] (1179 words)
I know, it's the perfect fantasy; eternal youth.
4. Four by Satindoll [Reviews - 7] (1596 words)
5. Five by Satindoll [Reviews - 4] (1443 words)
Okay, here we go folks. My first real smutty scene is in this chapter. It's tame by Spuffy standards, but it is graphic enough to warrant a special warning to my daughter! So, Bearina, be warned! Please take a moment to give me feedback. This is a big step for me and I need to know how I'm doing.

Giselle's subplot is starting to develop in my head. Are any of you interested in learning more about her "wacky, strange and interesting" species?
8. Eight by Satindoll [Reviews - 5] (2114 words)
This is my eighteenth chapter of Spuffy fan fiction, counting both this story and The Triple Fool. Being Jewish, the number 18 means something to me. I thought this was an appropriate time to publicly thank Addie Logan for her tremendous support of my adventures in fan fiction. It's a wonderful thing to find a mentor who selflessly shares her talents and wisdom. Thank you, Addie, you're a good egg.
9. Chapter Nine by Satindoll [Reviews - 6] (1606 words)
My beta had to deal with real life. I was away at family camp. Then the site was down. Here's chapter nine, finally.
10. Chapter 10 by Satindoll [Reviews - 4] (1222 words)
Things are going to get a little hairy for the happy family now.
11. Chapter Eleven by Satindoll [Reviews - 6] (2483 words)
This story has taken a radical turn. Joy is in danger. Please don't read this if you can't tolerate cute children in peril.
12. Chapter Twelve by Satindoll [Reviews - 6] (1450 words)
Joy is still lost, so there is some angst here. I promise she'll be rescued in time for trick-or-treat.
13. Chapter 13 by Satindoll [Reviews - 7] (2507 words)
14. Chapter Fourteen by Satindoll [Reviews - 6] (1652 words)
Okay, this chapter has some actual smut.
15. Chapter Fifteen by Satindoll [Reviews - 8] (1607 words)
This one's winding down now. Just a few more scenes to go.
16. Chapter 16 by Satindoll [Reviews - 7] (1891 words)
I'm in the process of becoming the Queen of UST. I guess I'm just a sucker for the long, slow tease. Hope you like it. Leave a review.
17. Chapter Seventeen by Satindoll [Reviews - 6] (1852 words)
Thanks to Addie Logan for shring her beta skills.
18. Chapter Eighteen by Satindoll [Reviews - 3] (1863 words)
19. Chapter 19 by Satindoll [Reviews - 3] (2016 words)
20. Chapter Twenty by Satindoll [Reviews - 6] (1735 words)
The muse totally took over this chapter. My apologies for failing to advance anything remotely like a plot. This scene just had to happen.
21. Chapter Twenty-One by Satindoll [Reviews - 5] (1933 words)
They really are going home soon, I think...
22. Chapter Twenty-Two by Satindoll [Reviews - 4] (1528 words)
Yeah, I'm big with the domestic scenes of happily-married Spuffiness. Can't help it!
23. Chapter Twenty-Three by Satindoll [Reviews - 4] (1386 words)
24. Chapter Twenty-Four by Satindoll [Reviews - 3] (1703 words)
I'm still having fun with this one. Please do review.
25. Twenty-Five by Satindoll [Reviews - 5] (2265 words)
After two years I've finally finished this story except for an epilogue that will link it to a new tale. I can hardly believe it! Since beginning this story I left my career in public health, became certified as a Pilates instructor, broke my shoulder, and became an empty-nester. Through it all I always knew I would finish this story. But I don't suppose you could have known I wouldn't abandon it as fic writers sometimes do. For those of you who never lost faith--thank you! For those who doubted me--Ha! And for those who just found this story, please review. My readers' comments always help me find the time to keep the story going.
