Autumn Rose 18hide bio
 Author has written 10 stories for Perry Mason. I was previously known as 'littlemissruth' and I updated my username September-2018 I'm in the UK and rather than watch more 'current' TV, I seem to have an absolute fascination (or fixation) with older, more classic TV shows - Perry Mason and (very recently) Gunsmoke. My first introduction to Perry Mason was via the 80s-90s movies. I was so happy to find out that there was a TV series to watch and a long list of novels to read through - and I'm working my way through them all. Because I first 'met' Perry and Della in the movies, that is probably why I've tended to write about them in that period. As I watch more of the TV series, that may change. I love the Perry & Della relationship but I'm also really interested in the friendship between them and both Paul Drake, and Paul Drake Junior. I thank Raymond Burr and Barbara Hale for bringing these characters to life. I'm new to Gunsmoke - and working my way slowly through the seasons. I'm very intrigued by Kitty's character and learning about her relationships with Matt and Doc. Both shows had such rich characters and stories, they are a pleasure to read and watch. I like 'discovering' new things about the characters & stories as I re-watch them, and thank the FF writers for sharing their insights in their stories. I'm new to writing on this site and thank everyone - members & guests - for your welcome and for your kind comments. I would also like to thank my wonderful beta RBHDPSMMK4EVER, for her support & help, and for encouraging me to write & share my ideas. |

No Choice At All by BurgundyHope reviews
Kitty had a choice to either let her friends protect her with their lives or give herself up to Jude Bonner. And really, that had been no choice at all, no matter the consequences. / Trigger Warning: this story is a Missing Moments/ATC for "Hostage!", so it deals pretty heavily with themes of abuse and sexual assault. (hence the M rating)
