But I love Jamie!

I've been dabbling more into Original Fic myself these days as well... So we'll see what goes down.

I actually have a couple of ideas for original fics, the kind that really can't just be made into a fanfic, which is something new for me, but I have enough fanfic projects to keep me busy for the next few years, so I'm just sitting on them for now.  But someday...

For potential-publishing reasons, or other?


Yeah, well I'm almost done with the 3rd draft of Jamie now and I think when it's finished, I'll do one last sweep for any new typos and whatnot since a lot changed in this re-write, but after that I think it will be ready to be sent out. ANd I've done enough research and am going to look for agent representation instead of going directly to publishing companies. I mean who knows if any of this will go anywhere, but after the SKOW awards, I am going to delete my FP account altogether just because I've heard that an agent would make you do that anyway (assuming I could get someone to rep me in the first place.) And then I'll have to take Jamie down from AC if I'm sending it to people, you know? LOL I'm getting antsy. I've done a lot of research and have a list of agents to contact in round one of trying to get repped... Now I just have to hurry and finish the damn manuscript. It's kind of exciting. I'm ready to get my first rejection letter!

I am going to leave my fan fic up though, maybe just make doubly sure that it can't be connected to me in any way, because no one will ever really be able to figure that out if I don't tell anyone. And if they did, who would care?

And Dee, don't worry, I'll put you on my list of people to send the book to for feedback when I finish the second Jamie book - which I've already started! (I decided to put my other projects on hold, because the Jamie sequel stepped in and took over my brain without my permission.  lol)

I've dabbled in Buffy fiction, none of it ever made it up to AC though. I've debated in reviving it, cause it was like a combo deal between the "worlds" of Buffy/Angel and took place post Season 5 of Angel...but combined Buffy in there...

But yeah, it was also a collab too that never made it lol. But I may rewrite it and post it myself someday.

I do original fiction, I started converting JAD into original, further than what's made it on FP/AC. And I've written OF that I just never felt comfortable posting. BSB fanfic always felt safest for me to post so that's what made it lol

Yes, & Yes.

I've written other things, such as [in alphabetical order-lol] Alvin & the Chipmunks, Baywatch, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, Full House, Hannah Montana, Home Improvement, Law & Order: SVU, Lizzie McGuire, Ninja Turtles, Walker: Texas Ranger, X-men, etc.

Half are on here, & the other half are either on fanfiction.net or elsewhere - lol.

Hmm, I like x-men!



I'm currently writing something totally out of the ordinary for me, it's a Gary Barlow from Take That fic, and it's kind of an action/adventure type of story, I've even killed off a few people in it, which is something I've never done because I always like happy lovely stuff, lol.  Not sure if it's any good, but I'm enjoying writing it.

If I'd known about fanfics like four years ago, I'm sure I would have dabbled in 7th Heaven fanfics.

However, I'm pathetic and don't even write BSB fanfics any more. I've been more into orig. fics and non-fic.

I used to write tons of poetry and short stories, but as of now, no.  I don't really write BSB fic much...before I started Casual the last time I wrote a BSB FF was in 2001 or 2002.

It's nice to see writers from the golden age come back!  LOL  I wish more of them would!  But I'm glad there is still so much action on AC, a new generation of Bsb fanfic writers and all that.

I am old school, I guess  :)...I have always been more of a reader than a writer, but every few years I get inspired!
