Auto Summary...Sorta a Meme

[willow_25]

I've seen this done in a couple of places, and it always makes me giggle, so I thought I'd try it.  I'm not terribly impressed with the results, but you might be.  Here is the 2% version of my story "Hole in My Pocket".  The original version is in memories here, at fanfiction.net, and at SR.

No one mentioned Spike for several months, not even Dawn. Spike was undead again, and staying in LA. Stupid vampire. When Angel and Spike showed up in Rome four months later, I panicked. In the year since we escaped the Hellmouth, she’d never mentioned Spike.

 

Buffy,

All my love,

 

“Angel.”

 

“Buffy!” Buffy took a deep breath. Angel sighed. Dawn. Buffy snorted.

 

I still jumped when Spike answered the call. “Spike."

 

“Buffy.”

 

Confession time. “Too right.” Although bad boy, demon fighting Spike was pretty sexy, too.

Your original is better. Maybe there's another story that the system could read correctly.

No, no there really isn't. I've never seen one of these auto-summary things work out well. Often the results are amusing; but an accurate depiction of the longer piece - not so much.

I was tempted to take what I have finished of chapter 12 of FAA and get a summary of it, but then I was afraid it might be good, and I'd dissapoint people with the long version.

Ah, the agonies of the creative process. Apologies for all spelling errors.

It actually comes closer to making sense than most of the summaries I've read ...
