First, I received an amazing story. If you've never seen the movie, Random Harvest is a classic 40s melodrama that is so good and tropetastic. An amnesiac WWI veteran runs away from an asylum with a stage girl. They fall in love, get married, has a baby. He goes to the city for a job interview and is in an accident and regains his memories, while losing all memory of his time while he was amnesiac. He becomes a titan of industry and politician. Meanwhile, his beloved wife eventually finds him, but instead of TELLING him everything, she gets a job as his secretary and hopes that being around her all day will jog his memory. After much emotional melodrama, he remembers everything!

Summary: Three other ways Paula and Smithy could have found happiness together.
This was long and delightful! I enjoy all of the AUs; my favorite bit was definitely Paula sending her stage friends to get him out of the Asylum, she's smart enough and go-getting enough to have arranged that. But the last one, from the point of view of the son, managed to recapture the exact emotion of me sitting there screaming at the screen to "just TELL HIM already!" that I get with the movie.

Less well known is her lifelong friendship with J.A. Pendleton, the celebrated novelist and Pulitzer Prize winner. The two women met at college, where they roomed together. Although the correspondence between the two women after their college years has been published, these letters (excerpted from Anderson's letters home to her family during their college years) have not, and provide a fascinating glimpse into their friendship.

Additional Tags: Enemies to Friends to Lovers, Reincarnation, Minor Xu Xian/Bai Suzhen, Animal spirits, Meet-Cute, Urban Fantasy, Ancient China, 1920s, Inspired by The Legend of the White Snake (Chinese Mythology), Folklore, Xianxia
Summary: In the usual telling, the story goes like this: A young boy does a favour for a white snake spirit. Sometimes he's a cowherd, sometimes a child buying sweets, sometimes he's even a snake hunter. Either way, the white snake resolves to repay him. She gains powers and human form.
She saves a green snake spirit from death and gains her allegiance.
She finds the kind boy. Or maybe she finds his soul, in a new body. Thanks to the machinations of a monk, the boy finds out what she is and they are separated - in some tellings for a very long time - but finally reunited.
The green snake betrays the white snake. Or she saves her. Sometimes she saves them all, out of her love for the white snake.
That, at least, is almost always true.

Less well known is her lifelong friendship with J.A. Pendleton, the celebrated novelist and Pulitzer Prize winner. The two women met at college, where they roomed together. Although the correspondence between the two women after their college years has been published, these letters (excerpted from Anderson's letters home to her family during their college years) have not, and provide a fascinating glimpse into their friendship.

Additional Tags: Enemies to Friends to Lovers, Reincarnation, Minor Xu Xian/Bai Suzhen, Animal spirits, Meet-Cute, Urban Fantasy, Ancient China, 1920s, Inspired by The Legend of the White Snake (Chinese Mythology), Folklore, Xianxia
Summary: In the usual telling, the story goes like this: A young boy does a favour for a white snake spirit. Sometimes he's a cowherd, sometimes a child buying sweets, sometimes he's even a snake hunter. Either way, the white snake resolves to repay him. She gains powers and human form.
She saves a green snake spirit from death and gains her allegiance.
She finds the kind boy. Or maybe she finds his soul, in a new body. Thanks to the machinations of a monk, the boy finds out what she is and they are separated - in some tellings for a very long time - but finally reunited.
The green snake betrays the white snake. Or she saves her. Sometimes she saves them all, out of her love for the white snake.
That, at least, is almost always true.
