Tuck Season
Ellen has forbidden redistribution of the original Tucky Seasons, so, please don't make any public deals here for any such thing.
Thank you,
Erin

Forbidden?

So-o-o wouldn't this be like...
making a 'backup' copy of a CD or DVD if you already had it??
I mean it is not like you are posting it for the world to see, just passing it along to an interested party. The same as loaning a CD or DVD to a friend, no?
I totally understand if Ellen doesn't want it posted on the net. Especially since she is trying to re-write it.
Oh well, just a few thoughts for us to consider!

Isn't the one at her site complete?
I was asked about it a couple of days ago when it came up in a comments string and had a look. There are at least 5 parts up but I didn't check it as I have a copy of the original on my HD (I think). IMO it's the best rendition of the Seasons universe even though it wasn't popular with Tigger.

No, Not Complete...
What's up there now are just five parts (corresponding, very roughly, to the first two chapters of original Seasons) from a 2004 prospective complete rewrite that either bogged down or lost Ellen's interest.
Ellen is convinced, based on a recent Tuckerspawn note, that she didn't get Jane's character right in the original story: that there's no way Jane would behave so comparatively benignly faced with Tuck's kind of threat to her program. (For Ellen's actual comments: http://ateros.com/tuckerspawn/index.php?t=msg&th=404&start=0... , fourth reply down the page.)
In any case, Ellen withdrew the 22 chapters when she started the new version (access to #23 and #24 had been removed earlier, though the chapters were still on the site itself), and threatened electronic mayhem on anyone who tried to distribute the old version of the story. And that's where things have stood since 2004.
