Summary
Of all the Plumfield students, Jo Bhaer considers them her two failures, Jack Ford and Ned Barker.
But what if she simply misunderstands them, having lost touch so long ago. Jack and Ned are neither failures nor write-offs. They are young men full of potential but with hang-ups, whose wake-up calls start with the news of an old friend's death.
This story stands alone but may also be considered a sequel of my former works, Behind the Scenes at Plumfield, and Longing For Home.
I'll be updating approximately weekly, until the story is told.

Summary
After the shock of Heathcliff's passing, Wuthering Heights should be at peace. Yet whispers drift across the moors of ghostly activity. Villagers swear they've seen the restless pair walking together at night. Hareton and young Catherine laugh at such rumors, until one raw autumn evening when the shadows draw too close for comfort and the past seems unwilling to let go. The living must decide what sort of love they will claim for themselves. This tale occurs one month after the finish of 'Wuthering Heights.'

Summary
This is for anyone who gets to the finish of the Melendy Quartet and still wonders what happened next. I'll offer a canon compliant possibility. And I'll try my best to honor the uplifting style of Elizabeth Enright. It'll be swell, as Rush might say, and divine, as Mona might express it.
It's ten years down the track. This story kicks off with one of Randy's unfortunate mishaps. Accidents haven't stopped happening to her even now that she's an accomplished art student. And concert pianist and composer, Rush, discovers the effect he had on someone from his long ago past.

Summary
This story includes many excellent incidents which Louisa May Alcott alluded to in 'Little Men' but didn't write herself.
It highlights personality clashes, sibling rivalry, heartache, glorious games, and triumphs that feed off canon and never contradict it.

Summary
Louisa May Alcott's wrap-ups in Jo's Boys are charming but leave room for so much more. I'm expanding on a couple of my favourite threads within the story. I'll dive deeper into Emil's shipwreck story, and also Nat's experiences as a music student in Germany.
What was it really like for Emil aboard the ill-fated Brenda and that volatile lifeboat? (And yep, there were others in that fix apart from just him and Mary.)
And how did Nat handle his 19th century long distance relationship, writing love letters to his sweetheart which he knew full well her critical mother would read?
This story doesn't contradict canon, and many incidents to be found within canon play out here. This is a tribute to a fantastic series.
