I already started a thread about this idea, but I have one for an ER crossover. ER is my favorite TV show of all time, and even though I'd never read or written fanfic for that fandom before, I love the characters and love the medical drama enough to think I could pull it off as a crossover. My idea is basically to involve the guys in a serious accident while they're touring in Chicago so that the ER staff would have to treat them.

I'd love to do a Star Wars/BSB crossover or Sailor Moon one. I really am leaning more towards star wars but I don't think I could do it, it's a lot of stuff and coming up with a idea...it's daunting lol. I love sci fi and I wish more would delve into that genre.
PS: steph I want to read this sailor moon one ;)

Here's the question:
Is there any instance when you go back and look at something you've read or written where you tend to be surprised at how good or bad it actually was in retrospect? Meaning the first time you read it, you thought it sucked but on the second reread, suddenly you found it awesome or vice versa?

I usually don't tend to reread things once i've read it once but when I had my FFF group and featured some of the stories that I loved, I remember on the second skim through thinking that most of them weren't as great as I remembered them. But I still loved them, if nothing else for nostalgia's sake. I have never felt the opposite way though because I've never had the desire to read something I already didn't think I liked lol
Writing wise, Protect and Serve surprised me. When I wrote it, I did think it was okay but not the best by any means. I just finished reading it this morning and I can honestly say, I was really impressed by me lmao
Now I have a new answer to that if you could ask anyone to read any of your stories which one would it be question. I mean, there is definitely room to grow, but as far as the overall flow and plot of the story I was more than pleased. Plus I had forgotten the whole thing was pretty much told from Kevin's POV and Howie had a pretty significant role in it as well, so yeah. Tooting my own horn for this one! I'm sure Howie would approve as well!
Carter-Orange:
Aw sorry Mare, I would've replied if I'd been around this weekend and not drinking stupid amounts of alcohol, lol.
I don't tend to re-read things, so I have no idea how I'd react if I read stories again. Maybe I should try it.
As for crossovers, I've done a BSB/Supernatural one where the Winchester brothers had to save Nick and AJ from dying from a supernatural video game.
If I had to write another TV show into a crossover, I think I'd choose something like Falling Skies as I'd love to see how the boys would deal with an alien invasion :)

When you first mentioned this crossover I remember being hesitant about wanting to read it because I thought you were going to make it an AU and have the guys be doctors but the way you described it, I would totally read it! I love this idea and I hope you do it!! (minus killing any of them and after you finish GR lmao)
