Story about the tin man?

Or, why doesn't lj offer some way for me to search my flist?

Someone recently (past week?) recommended a short story about the tin man. It's by a new author, or at least someone who hasn't published much. IIRC, he's got an apostrophe in his last name, and he has one book of short stories-- I think it's at a self-publishing site.

I believe ljseek.com offers an option to limit its search to your flist. Only catch is that it only searches public entries where the journal owner didn't disable indexing, so it's not the most thorough.

Thanks, but it didn't seem to work. When I tried to limit it to my friends list, I got back a different set of posts than I did for the unlimited search, but it was a bunch of folks I'd never heard of.

I think this is a job for human minds, so I'm going to ask in an open thread at Making Light.
