It's my time again. I am trying to find a story called Being Beautiful or The Importance of Being Beautiful. Author unknown. I know I had copies of it but it's gone now. I think it was on FM, but I can't locate it. If any of you other old people out there have a copy, let me know. It was in two parts, the second part was not as good as the first. The storyline was simple. A guy bets his sister in law she can't make him woman enough to enter a beauty contest for impersonaters, and she wins of course, so she gets to make him beautiful and makes him request it. His wife likes it enough she picks it up and carries it even further.

Try this one
Try looking for "The Importance Of Being Beautiful
By Jenny Walker" on FM. This looks like it might be what you are looking for.

The only thing I can find by Jenny Walker is her masterpiece "No Half Measures."

Jenny Walker - further works
Dear Portia,
If I remember correctly, she did indeed have several short stories on Story Site after the big one, and even showed a photo of Herself, but then they disappeared, along with and about the same time that a lot of authors withdrew their works, and when Crystal stopped doing any more with the Site. I have found nothing further since then from her.

Thanks
I'm positive that's it. Now if I can just find a copy. I don't know if she was trying to sell it, or if she had it removed from where it was posted, or if the FM servers ate it when they went belly up awhile back.
This Certainly Looks Like It
From your description.

That definitely looks like it. No wonder
it was pulled from the story sites. And that cover picture sure doesn't follow what I had in my mind from the original readings.
a reader
had it in a file and got it to me. Thanks to all.
Any possibility of sharing?
