Sam, did you know she has written a short story/ epilogue on Dusty and Bliss.
where can I find that?!
It's not out yet, if you have Facebook she is under Mary Elizabeth and also has a group called Dusty Lovers it will tell you everything on there :) she also has a new story called Pickup Truck which I hear is just as good :)))
Thank you SO much, Elaine!!!!
Also Sam, I can send you the link, so you can download these books straight onto your ereader or better still if you have a kindle app onto that. So let me know :))

I am totally blown away by this book!!! I love, love, loved it! I went into it thinking it would be silly, and I sitting here with a broken heart. There needs to be another book!!! I can't wait for the epilogue. Thanks, Elaine for the info. I will check it out.
Elaine, do you have the link to download her new story?
Do you mean Pickup Truck?
Elaine wrote: "Do you mean Pickup Truck?"So wait is pick up truck out yet??!
I NEED a conclusion to Dusty I cant wait for the epilogue!!

No not all of it, she downloads chapter by chapter and she is on chapter 8 so far, you can read it like that or you can read it once its finished like Dusty was.
I know we all feel the same :))
Elaine I'd love the link to download the books to my kindle also please

Girls I was told this wasn't a book... I am now confused... Is dusty a book or not?
It's a fan fiction- basically a book. Reallllly long. Bit great!!
Ok now I feel stupid... Can u explain what u mean by fan fiction?
Angila wrote: "Girls I was told this wasn't a book... I am now confused... Is dusty a book or not?"Well it was not officially published, you can read it for free online. But it is one of the best stories I have ever read in my life and I would buy hardcopy in a heartbeat!
Oh I see... Well I def want to read it!!! How can I find it?
In the buddy read group Mary commented and said that basically her and Sarah are not on speaking terms and do not see eye to eye on how it would be published...so with that said Mary is pretty adamant that it will never be published even though the entire book, plot etc was her concept she cant publish without her and Sarah in agreement. So i feel like someone just punched me in the gut and I am totally winded. I want to erase my memory of reading Dusty and start all over.
ahem -hi :-)
just, for the record, "the entire book, plot, etc" was not only my former partner's.
it was and is, both of ours. it took two minds, two hearts, and four hands to create and shape Dusty.
when two people write something together, you can't split it apart anymore than you can split apart a painting two people created together, or a child. we took turns writing chapters, but there are details throughout every single chapter that belong to both of us. just like there would be mixed brushstrokes on a painting that two people created, or characteristics in a child that belong to each of that child's parents.
for the second part of the record, i wasn't against publishing. i just didn't want to rush into anything. that's what we couldn't see eye to eye on. and my unwillingness to rush, along with my unwillingness to turn something i love dearly (a free piece of art built around and for love) into something it isn't (a moneymaker), she's the one who said "Dusty will never see paper."
which is very sad, to say the very least.
but even if she hadn't, after everything that's happened, at this point, she's right.

Bah! This is so sad. I really thought Dusty was awesome. I've been in a funk since I finished. Thanks Sarah for contributing to my epic breakdown that I still haven't recovered from!

lol, thank you so so much for giving them a chance - for reading and for sharing and for giving them so much love and time! i can totally relate to both sides. i think it's awesome too and i too have been in a funk! thank you so much for letting them, and in turn us, break you down :-)

Have you written other stories that you want to share with us????!!!

Sarah, Dusty was amazing both u and Mary are awesome and in my opinion that is one of the best stories out there!!
I agree, to me it is one of the best books I have ever read and I have read a few. Of course it's a shame at this point in time that it won't be published as I would love everyone to have a chance to share this consuming, beautiful, heartbreaking story. I hope that one day that will change. Thank you Sarah and Mary Elizabeth for being part of this story and bringing Dusty into our lives x
I've already had 5 people ask me to send it to them and I wish I could do more than just forward a copy. I guess the only way, us, asthe readers can show appreciation for such a heartfelt and raw story by spreading the word and having more people experience it the way we did.
Sarah,Though sadly it will never, I can't help but think that Dusty should be on bookshelves everywhere. Those words deserve to be read by millions. I've read very few books as beautiful as such and as worthy of being published. You did an amazing job. Mary did an amazing job. Thank you for writing it. I feel like I owe you something in return. :)
Okay, I've said my piece. Time to start a petition on change.org to get these authors to publish Dusty already. j/k ;)

And the WILL PAY!
Yes!!! Change.org!! What's even worse is that I look at the"real" Edward and Bella as a bunch of lame nit wit dorks now!!
< Mary Elizabeth is one author
Sarah Clark is the other
I did not know that. thanks for the info. I need to read the epilogue, but am not sure how to.
Jodell, you will either need to donate at fandom4lls.blogspot.com or wait until January Mollie I love how everywhere I look you're saying you miss Dusty. And it's been weeks now. I feel the same.
Hahaha. I don't even have any points to make or input in the conversations. I just post that I miss Dusty. Everything is in those 3 words.
LOL yup. "I miss Dusty" says it all. I peer pressured a few friends into reading Dusty so I'm reliving it through them. It kind of helps.
thank you guys so much. so so so much.it's overwhelming, all of this. it started with love, and grew with love, and seeing it become loved is such an amazing thing.
thank you guys, sincerely. thank you.
i have written things of my own, both fanfic and ofic, and am working on multiple ofic projects. i took all of my stories down from ff.net a few years ago, but there are still two up there. one of them is a Dusty outtake, and the other is a short that was originally written for a contest, that i changed my mind and extended.
ps - please, don't charge anyone or send any money, lol.
love is free.
I'd love to read more, Sarah. Mind if I stalk your work? LOL
