    Summary

    Premise loosely based on the Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo.
    Miriam Weissman, known professionally as Mrs. Maisel, was one of the great comedy legends of the 50’s and 60's. With her career that began in ‘58, and spanned nearly three decades, perhaps the most infamous thing about her were her five marriages. For so long, she’s refused to make any sort of comment on her personal life. Now, at the end of her life, with all the key players long gone, Midge allows one biographer the chance to uncover the key question that’s plagued America since the very beginning: Who was the love of Mrs. Maisel’s life?

    Summary

    This was gonna hang in my home. When I had a home. A-and a family – when I had that life, this was… this was gonna go in there. But that was then. And this is now. I will never have that life. … No, I’m not trying to spin a melodrama, I’m being very realistic. The chance for that life is gone. It’ll never happen, because, everything… I have… I put into that. Nothing left.

    I think that’s very sad.

    Well, that’s the way it is. If you want to do something great—if you want to take something as far as it’ll go, …then you can’t have everything. You lose… family. Sense of home. But then… look at what exists.

    Summary

    She’d found him fascinating from the get-go. Not just because Benjamin was so taken with this man and the myth surrounding him, but because he was something else. Something new. Seemingly a belligerent drunk, which was in no way a novel thing to Midge by now, but when he crawled up onto the bar, she recognized something in him – something she knew from herself. The way he readily and easily took command of the room and held the crowd in his sway made her think he was as much entertainer as artist.

    Summary

    He wants to tell her he loves her. He doesn't even know if it's completely true. It's a half-truth, at least. He wants to kiss her, he wants to fuck her, he wants to spend days memorizing every mark on her skin but they don't have days, only this night.

    Summary

    "Her smile had been wide and easy, but there was no denying the look of relief behind her eyes as she smiled out at herself from the picture frame. The way the tiny Miriam clung to Benjamin’s arm where it was wrapped around her.... The little reproduction Benjamin looked so pleased, so adoring, gazing down at tiny Miriam.

    "Midge felt so angry she could gag."

    Summary

    “The only honest art form is laughter, comedy. You can't fake it." - Lenny Bruce
    ---
    “Two failed marriages. I really am the Mad Divorcee of the Upper West Side.” She laughs once, unconvincingly.
    “I could propose and make it a round three,” Lenny offers, playing into her joke with – he hopes – enough humor in his tone.
    ---
    A sort-of sequel to Broken Colour.

    Summary

    "It looks different as it reflects and absorbs electric light. Not quite the same as she remembers it in daylight. But it's still the most beautiful thing she has ever seen."

    Summary

    *Chapter 4 is in the work, so it WILL be up here... at some point.* 4/2/22

    An oversexed, eccentric artist meets an underpaid traveler/perpetual woman on the run and gets the shock of his life. And then an angry Nazi shows up.

    Loosely based on one of my favorite romantic comedies. Veers somewhat dark at times, but not too perverse.

    This story is not delving into the The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel because Declan Howell was only featured in that one extremely enjoyable episode (and I don't care for the show). Feel free to suspend your disbelief regarding his age and appearance as it's no longer the 1950s. He and John Smith are *exactly* the same age.

    Summary

    So I fell in love with Declan Howell the minute I laid eyes on him and perhaps in some way Midge did too. Kindred spirits - one at the beginning of her journey and one midway through and a chance meeting in a bar.

    You need to have seen all of season 2 for this to make any sense. This is my first foray into this world and I'm hoping I got even close to the cadence and voices of the characters. Thank you for reading.
