When I started posting Foreshadowing, Terry put a line is his feedback saying "I don't think this is a rewrite of Ricochet." So I've been avoiding reading Ricochet at all, lest I be subconsciously plagiarizing it. I can see now why Terry brought it up. It was a lot of fun seeing what a real fanfic author does with the switch idea. Poor PLois, it's like one big inside joke and the joke is on her. This is my happily ever after.

The setups are different, the characterizations are different, the conflicts they work to resolve are different, and the resolutions are different. This is a case where two talented authors got the same idea at about the same time and then developed that idea in two completely different ways. And both stories are excellent. Both of you need to keep them going! In fact, as I write this, I'm waiting for the last chapter of each story with worms on my tongue. Life isn't a support system for writing. It's the other way around. - Stephen King, from On Writing

Seriously, Terry, as I read farther in Richochet, I'm having a lot of fun seeing how a few key differences at the beginning can take the same basic premise in a completely different direction. I am still very glad that I didn't read this before I was done, though. I would have been playing serious mind-games with myself if I had. So, Sue, when you're finished with Ricochet you can come read Foreshadowing, etc. and have some good laughs.[Feels Sue's pinch] Ouch! Happy, who is flattered beyond words to be put in the same "two talented writers" phrase as Sue This is my happily ever after.
