I'm all over this thread. I'm doing Legend of Zelda fic this year, based on the Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask mangas. :| I think it's trying to turn into a political mess on me instead of something awesome. :(

Rubyfruit — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 01:34:40 -0500

I wanted to wait until someone else posted in the thread so that I didn't kill the thread before it started. I am going to take a whack at Kingdom Hearts 'fic again. And for the first time, I'm coming in with nothing but the vaguest of vague ideas.

GUYS, GUYS WE CAN WRITE "FANFICTION" IN OUR OTHER CATEGORY NOW. ISN'T THAT AWESOME!? I'm excited to be writing fanfiction this year. Really, really excited. I get to revisit one of my all time favorite games, (Digital Devil Saga) and write one of my favorite pairings (Argilla/Jinana) and explore one of the best video game settings known to man. (JUNKYARD! :D) I am so stoked to be writing it this year; I've been working on my outline, replaying the video game, and all that good stuff! It's going to be an awesome drama-action-romance ride this year. There will be cannibalism, and hindu symbolism, and angst, and angsty hindu cannibalism, and- *incoherent babbling continues.* Anyways, I'm excited to be writing with all you fine people!

I bet nobody else is doing ReBoot! This one has been in the planning stages for um... eight years, give or take? And it's finally coming together, massively and splendidly. I may actually have a shot at lasting more than a week this year.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Aquadestiny — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 01:57:12 -0500

I'm doing Hetalia this year. Should be pretty exciting since the current news is filled with things I can use as potential backstory {like that Afghanistan allying with India thing.... going to have to re-do the map I've been working on ;-;}. This has been in the planning stage for almost 9 months now, and I can't wait to get started.

I sometimes write fanfiction during the lean months until November, so all I have to say is good luck, crazy fan ficcers!

FranciePants — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 03:02:38 -0500

I'm writing fanfiction for the first time since middle school. Hopefully, this one will be miles better. I'm not planning to write any original characters and everyone will stay as true to the way they were written as I can manage. It's going to be a prequel of sorts from the Harry Potter-verse. I only hope I can do Snape's character justice.

Nashirah — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 03:03:35 -0500

Hi guys! I decided to write fanfiction this year, and not one, but two stories at once. Just in case I got bored with the first one. ;) The second plot came to me suddenly and was too tempting to ignore, so I'm sticking with it. Anyway, I'm writing rps fanfiction, Super Junior (kpop). I hope at least someone knows what I'm talking about. /o\ I'm excited (and nervous, but mostly excited)! Nice to meet you all ^^

Still going for X-Files fanfiction (I really ought to drag my behind out of the 90s! I sound so old!), but along with that I also want to try some original fiction.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Starstrike — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 03:47:55 -0500

I might do a fanfic this year, not too sure yet, I've had ideas for some original fantasy stuff floating around. Right now though i have the HUGEST HP plot bunny storming through my brain that is demanding to be written, I'm actually putting research time into the bloody thing to see if I can make it work the way I want to.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

halfthewords — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 03:53:43 -0500

I'm writing a YGO fanfic I've pretty much failed at finishing in the last few years. I got to 100k last year before it was even halfway done, oh man. Pairing is Thief King Bakura/Malik/Anzu and it's...hard to explain without diagrams. :D

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Renalae — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 05:55:07 -0500

Hi fellow fanfic writers! Final Fantasy XI fanfic here for me this year, my 2nd FFXI fanfic NaNo. It's going to have some light crossover elements from World of Warcraft as well since the two games are surprisingly synergous. I've decided to only do fanfic once every other year to try and placate my inner "Hey, shouldn't you be writing publishable material?" critic, but after last year's debacle writing noir, I'm grateful to be going back to doing something I know how the hell to do... Also, SQUEE! at the YGO fanfic writers, I was into that fandom for many years.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Rekoa Meton — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 07:03:39 -0500

I'm writing fanfiction (actually a crossover) for the first time ever. I was with very little time to do worldbuilding of my own this October, and I'm also very excited with my little idea. Any advice from veteran fanfic-writers?

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Ting — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 07:10:30 -0500

It's my first year doing NaNo, and since I've been writing fanfiction for a while now, I decided to go with that. :) Since the last book in the trilogy isn't coming out till next August, I've decided to write a sequel to 'The Power of Six'. Coming up with a title that fit the naming scheme of the series was hard, but I found it at last; 'The Rise of Nine'. 8D

heatherbee — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 07:32:00 -0500

I'm writing a Glee fanfiction. It's an AU set in a modern fantasy setting, which is based on the Cecilia Ahern novel There's No Place Like Here. It's not exactly a crossover because I'm not using any of Ahern's characters. It's a Klaine story, because that's what I write, but with a full cast too. I hate it when writers (all writers, not just fanfiction writers) forget that the MCs have other friends too. I kind of feel like the black sheep of the fanfiction community here. There are tons of people writing Glee fanfic, but I've never found anyone on here. So ... speak up, if I'm not alone?

Tom M. Surname — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 07:35:49 -0500

After an internal battle, resolved when I realized that my last two original novels weren't even in the same plane of reality as any hint of agents or editors, I have resigned myself to writing the Sailor Moon S alternate universe fic that has been chewing on my brain for a few months. I have not yet figured out how to break the news to my parents. I've never done fanfic for NaNo before, so I'm not sure how it'll differ from the original novel; I'd assume, though, that it constrains the insanity a bit. (For instance, if you're writing a Harry Potter prequel, it is bad form to hit Lily and James with a lorry.) Then again, I'm doing an AU, in which more or less anything goes, since there's no canon to say that my heroines must all be alive and intact at the finish line... That seems to be my cue to blow up Tokyo.

ShadowReaverUchiha — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 08:17:40 -0500

For the second year I'm going with a Naruto Fanfic. I wanted to do an original this year but I just couldn't get all my research and outlining done in time. And even though there is still time I just don't want to force it. So! This year I'm going with a fanfic that I've been thinking about doing for a while. In fact it's so persistent that I haven't been able to work on any other fanfictions (including one that I've already been writing and have posted that isn't finished) and my originals. So I need to get this thing out of the way and what better time then NANOWRIMO!

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Reavien — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 08:30:34 -0500

*waves*! Last year I did an original story-line, but, this year I'm going to be doing a 'Batman' fanfiction. ...and I say 'Batman', because, Batman isn't really in it that much, I guess it's more of a Batverse sort of thing. Main canon character is going to be Jason Todd because he needs more attention. 8I ....good attention....*kicks DC Reboot away* Anyway, yeah. I'm still trying to figure some kinks out of the plot and crap, but, I have a half a month to finish up with that. I'll be finishing the updates on my novel info after I get home from classes tonight. Anyone ELSE writing Bat-related things? I want to know!

Oh my WOW! There are other YuGiOh writers here! Oh, I'm so happy... Hi, everyone! I'm new to the fanfiction bandwagon, as this is my third NaNo and I've previously stuck to original fiction. Not that I'm new to fanfiction: I've been writing it since I was thirteen. This year I'm writing a very, very long story for YuGiOh that I've been planning out (literally) since January (the outline eventually got so long I had to split it into four separate documents so I could read it with ease). I tend to stay on the sidelines for actual pairings, just out of personal preference (though a lot of my fandom friends are open and proud shippers, so nothing against pairing stories in the least), and focus almost strictly on friendship and family relationships. My story is crazy complicated, but it focused on Yami and Yuugi (wow, big surprise), along with a fairly major subplot of what happens when Pegasus decides, post-canon, to adopt. Yeah. Non-YuGiOh fans are now twitching their eyes at me in bafflement... (heck, even fans might be XD). So glad to see all of you here! Regardless of your fandom of choice, this is gonna be so much fun. Happy writing!! Lauren

Anne Lessing — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 08:32:22 -0500

This year I'm being a rebel and continuing a Call of Duty: Zombies fanfiction novel I've been writing since August 2010. It's about the four original characters--Tank, Takeo, Nikolai, Richtofen--and their adventures through the first four maps. I also have Star Wars and Fallout 3 novels in the works, and a collection of drabbles for Pirates of the Caribbean. If I run out of words to write before November is up (cue gasp), I'll work on one or all of those.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

ChibiJaime — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 08:37:39 -0500

Another fanficcer here! It's a Marvelverse spinoff. Sort of its own story, and could probably be plucked out and written as its own thing, but since it uses most of the elements from Marvelverse and my MC's conflict is protecting her family while she travels from her home city of Portland, Oregon to New York to get them to Xavier's school... well, you get the idea. XD I actually am plucking this from an rp I was part of that I dropped from when they decided Wanda/the Scarlet Witch was a good idea for someone to rp as a main character as opposed to using her as an NPC for big plots strictly based on the sheer amount of power she throws around (other X-Men fans can hear me facepalming from here, I'm sure). I've got some great ideas and stuff to happen along the way, so maybe I'll pull a win out of this one!

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Noelle_Winters — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 08:42:57 -0500

My very first time fan-ficing! I just can't get the plot out of my head, and its several novels long. (Short novels) I almost feel guilty neglecting my original work, but I know this plot bunny will turn my brains to goo if I don't write it out. Sadly, I've fallen in love with my characters/plot so much...I almost want to just find a way to turn it into an original work. I will probably do that someday, I'll just consider this my plot's test run. ;) Though is anyone ever paranoid of other people stealing your characters/plots? (Oh, the irony coming from a fan-fic writer, LOL!)

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Raquelin — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 08:43:27 -0500

Pokemon. Aw yeah. Old school Kanto, 1st gen only (with hints that something exists beyond the natural boundaries seen in the game). I spent like a year "rationalizing" the world and now I play in it. OCs, but lots of active canon characters with random fandom references and shoutouts. (The Gym Leaders are all intact, for example, but they're not POV characters, and Misty and Brock have some kind of odd, mysterious relationship that no one asks questions about.) It's sort of my baby by now. I luffs it.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Tribi — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 09:03:42 -0500

This is my third year doing NaNo and I'm sick of pouring my heart out into 50,000 words that nobody ever reads. My best friends won't read it, my husband won't read it, forget them - if I post it as fanfic it will be read. I also spent weeks trying to find a Drarry Severitus h/c genderbender and realized that maybe if I want to read one so badly I should just write it myself. (Hmm, if you understood that sentence perhaps we should become buddies?) I'm really excited for this year, not only because I have my general plot and all the characters set but because I'm sure that I can get actual feedback. So brave of me. _And_ a Drarry Severitus h/c genderbender -it's going to be awesome!

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Lindy-Hop — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 09:53:26 -0500

I'm writing Downton Abbey for NaNo this year, set between the end of WWI and 1921. A fandom I've not written before, set in a time I don't know much about, *and* the second series doesn't finish until 2nd November so my outline keeps changing, in case the word count wasn't enough of a challenge.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Beebee2121 — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 10:04:02 -0500

I'm going to try a Harry Potter fanfic this year. It's my first fanfic that I've really put thought into. Before, I just kinda scribbled stuff down on paper and then immediately destroyed them existence 'cause they were soooo baaaad. Now, I'm planning an AU fic where Harry and Co. go to America~! (Mostly because I haven't a clue what to do with England. Research? What's that?) I'm throwing in a lot of OCs and creatures and things. Did I mention North American Triwizard Tournaments? Perhaps I'm biting off more than I can swallow.....?

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

immortalwitchy — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 10:23:25 -0500

multi series xover here SG1/ SGA/ Highlander/ Torchwood/ Buffy the Vampire Slayer/ Supernatural/ Sanctuary/ True Blood/ Charmed/ with mentions of Storm Chasing the main thing is that it's also major Alt uni for all series erm.. yea so not kidding and i'll make it work as well.. that's the beauty of fic is that things are not always what one would expect.. to a world where something may or may not have happened in one series.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

goddess_evie — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 10:26:09 -0500

I'm going old school with my fanfic and working on a The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest fic. I'm cheating even more and not starting new, but working on a WIP that I haven't touched in WAY too long. I'm hoping to get a good chunk more written, though I already know that an additional fifty thousand words won't bring it to it's finish. If I weren't also going to be editing my finished nanonovel from last year, I'd try for 100,000 thousand words this year, but oh well. 50,000 words added to this thing will still be a nice big chunk. Bythway, my fic is already at 125,000 words, just to give you an idea. Also, not posted anywhere, because I already have one WIP at ff.net and I didn't want another one unless I have the whole thing ready to post!

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Rubyfruit — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 13:07:30 -0500

...Apparently I think I may know what I want to write now. It wants to be wingfic. I don't know how to stretch that into 50,000 words.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

hiidenuhma — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 13:27:24 -0500

I had a nice plan for this year's NaNoWriMo (some original fantasy stuff I've been thinking about for years), but then, Teen Wolf happened. I haven't been this active in any fandom for a loooong time, so it's impossible for me to now turn back to original stuff when I'm in full fanficcing mode. Gah. Well, I decided to indulge myself and just give to the temptation of fanfic, so my novel will be a Teen Wolf/The Gates crossover with Brett/Derek/Jackson as the pairing. Yyyeeah, I'm not sure how this'll turn out (lots of angst and depictions of biting?) but I bet I'm going to enjoy this one!

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Totodile — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 13:45:06 -0500

I'll be writing a My Little Pony fic for my first NaNoWriMo. Set over a thousand years before the show, it'll be detailing all the various hijinks that gods and reality warpers and ordinary ponies can get up to before the whole Nightmare Moon thing. Oh yes. I've only written Pokemon fic before, so this will be a fun challenge.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

nightblade — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 13:59:52 -0500

Yay Pokemon in Seattle! (also Washingtonian) Ended up doing Pokemon by accident a few years ago, it kinda snuck up on me. I'm leaning toward Warehouse 13 fanfic just to fix the season 3 ending.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

keolah — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 14:33:37 -0500

Fanfiction here. :) I haven't actually written fanfic for nano before... unless you count the 2005 nano that I'd rather pretend didn't happen, which included elements from two original universes, Warhammer 40,000, Dragon Ball Z, Star Wars, World of Darkness, and probably some other nonsense too... This year, I've been writing a series of stories about a dimension-traveling mage. He's already visited Harry Potter and Dragon Age, and I'm debating on whether to send him to Mass Effect or Star Wars (KotOR-era) next. And being very indecisive about this.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Frances — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 15:26:08 -0500

I didn't set out for things to be this complicated but I'm sort of writing about Wicked fanfiction via a contemporary adaptation of Wizard of Oz. I wanted to do something original but I've been writing so much Gelphie recently I know I won't be able to stay away for a whole month. So, compromise. Good luck everyone!

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Kates_Nano — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 15:35:22 -0500

I'll be writing fanfiction again this year, because I've forgotten how to do anything else. Still, I'm coming out of my comfort zone this year: no more familiar Harry Potter - I'll be doing Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic fanfiction. And to make things extra exciting, my novel will only be based on the games very loosely.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

alias093001 — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 16:01:22 -0500

For the last few weeks, I've been deciding between writing Starlight Rain my Harry Potter fanfiction surrounding Andromeda Black and her eventual relationship with Ted Tonks, or Swan Song, a Harry Potter/Glee crossover where Sam Evans falls for Cho Chang as he attempts to provide Harry with some support from the Hufflepuff house following Cedric's death. Ultimately, I decided to go with Starlight Rain; something about that story just called to me.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Genkai — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 17:24:30 -0500

I'm thinking doing something Harry Potter ish. Harry/Hermione would be endgame for sure. Or that I would do a series of 5 or so fanfics and maybe make them converge in the end. To me fanfiction would be a safe route for a first timer such as myself but most people are urging me not to do fanfics. I haven't written in ages (I roleplay pretty much) so this would be a challenge to me, even if it might not seem like it. Any ideas? And please any shippers who hate HHr, keep it to yourself, I don't care your pair is canon.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Wolfsong98 — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 17:41:52 -0500

I'm been doing csi:miami for the last two years and this year is no different. This year, i think i'm going to bring my werewolf au into the mix. I have ideas *crosses fingers* this plot bunny's been teasing me for a couple years now.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

RemiMayier — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 17:49:32 -0500

Yeah, first year of Nano and I am doing Twilight fanfiction. Don't look at me like that; that series is huge. Stephenie Meyer had to have done something right...and that is pretty much the premise of my fanfiction. I am wanting to see what makes Twilight work (and if along the way I fix a few plot holes, than it is a win-win.)

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Amaritage — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 18:03:24 -0500

This is my first time doing a NaNo, but not my first time doing FanFiction. As for what genre I'll be doing it'll be a Digimon one. It'll be focused on Takeru and Patamon since they are my favorite characters and because I have one I just finished in August that needs a sequel so I thought I would use this to make me write it instead of starring at my computer doing nothing.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

KayceeRonin — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 18:11:20 -0500

Soooo, two years ago I did a Fullmetal Alchemist fanfiction, and I won and it was awesome. I think I make myself move a lot faster for some reason when I'm writing fanfiction. This year though, I'm writing a fantasy story, but my goal is to finish that early and THEN write a Supernatural fanfiction. I have NO ideas for that yet. All I know is I started watching the series about a month ago and I am addicted. The end. XD Also if anyone IS writing for Supernatural and needs someone to read, you should message me. XD Good luck, everyone! :3

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Tsuki-chan — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 19:04:34 -0500

I haven't actually decided if I'm doing fanfic or not (or WHAT I'M DOING AT ALL OMG PANIC!), but a definite contender is to the revisit the Hikaru no Go/Kingdom Hearts crossover that I started for blind_go on LJ a few years ago. It was so much fun to write, and then it just sort of... died. Maybe I'll actually plot it out this time? Having an idea past "HikaGo/KH OMGYAY WIN!" might help. XDD ...Yeah, this will probably win. Because I MISS that 'verse. And Hikaru and Akira and Sora and Riku are so fun to write all together. Also: yaoi. Yay, QUILTBAG fic!

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Castille — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 19:26:04 -0500

Considering writing a HP fic this year, though its by no means set in stone. Said plot would be AU Maruader's era of course... Tom Riddle never became the dark lord and is actually teaching defense against the dark arts. Then I guess some sort of twist in which Professor Riddle gets sent to the mainstream HP universe, gets mistaken for a horcrux. For a man who abhorred violence all his life, Prof Riddle finds himself forced to align with the death eaters in order to survive. Something about the resurrection of Voldemort and the elder wand too...I forgot.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

LeighAnn — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 19:26:24 -0500

I think I may have officially lost the plot. Quite literally. Let me explain. I'd decided this year that I was attempting two novels... and that neither of them were going to be fanfiction projects. So I have decided on two plots and planned them out pretty much also. I decided to visit the fanfiction thread on a whim, and have now decided that I'm going to do something fanfic-y on the side of my other 2 novels. What on earth am I thinking? 2 novels is insane enough but 3... why do I do this to myself? But I have decided what I shall be writing for my fanfiction project. It's going to be Harry Potter, and will I think focus on the lives of Bellatrix, Andromeda and Narcissa from when they were children just because I find it interesting to see how differently they grew up and to explore the reasons behind this. If anyone is interested in bouncing some ideas around with me, please do shoot me a nanomail!! I also don't plan on telling anyone about this little side project, outside of this thread. Feel special guys XD

Nardaviel — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 21:02:18 -0500

I'm writing a DN fic. I should have written it in 2009, but instead I persisted in writing a horrible original fantasy story until I couldn't bear it any longer. But I'll make up for it this year! Yus. It'll take place during the Yotsuba arc, because I think I'm the only person in the world who actually likes memory-less Light.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

jenifar_kd — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 21:32:39 -0500

I'll be indulging myself in a Harry Potter fanfiction. :) NANO's writing practise for me and I know I won't have anything published professionally, so I'd rather have fun and share it with friends

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

QueenSonneh — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 22:08:43 -0500

So, not particularly doing Fanfiction at the moment, but my plots change based on what mood I'm in and what I feel like writing. Like currently I just started a Doctor Who fanfic. Yeah, Whovians give a shoooout. (okay so it's a shameless Doctor x OC plot, but that is beside the point).

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

gossamerwillow — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 22:13:39 -0500

I'm writing a Sherlock/Castle crossover! I did and original story last year and didn't finish, so this year I figured I would be able to let go more with fanfic.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

starsandauras — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 22:35:30 -0500

Oh hey, I didn't know there was a fanfiction thread now! Sweet~ Just like I did last year, I'm delving into the Axis Powers Hetalia fics again (Which is why this year and last year I put my genre as "Historical Fiction." It still counts!), mostly centering on my OC for Ireland and the rest of the British Isles family, along with the various assorted bits that Ireland's managed to pick up along the way. Also crossing over with Torchwood, Doctor Who (Tennant), and the Star Trek reboot. (LJ roleplay, it breeds crazy connections and storylines), following Ireland through Irish-British Isles history though somehow in my outlines I've wound up focusing a great deal on present day. Also a quick Human!AU and an Empire!Ireland AU as well.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Jayne2 — Wed, 12 Oct 2011 00:33:29 -0500

While I do have an original fiction novel set for NaNo, I do have a basic idea of a Supernatural fanfiction that will be written if I finish early. I presume this will be around 5k-10k, and shall be based after/during episode 7.02, focusing on the brother dynamics, as always with me :3.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Oracle Speaking — Wed, 12 Oct 2011 01:24:55 -0500

For a minute there I was worried that no one else was planning on doing fanfic for Nano~ SILLY ME! XD Basically, I don't have anything concrete in my head that could be used for a Nano plot -except- my fanfiction ideas, so I'll probably be writing a fanfic this year. (Who knows, I might even reach 50k for once) I'm not sure whether to try and pick just one and stick with that or just write them all, but...actually, knowing me I'll probably end up with the latter. I'm a huge fan of crossovers done right, so quite a few have parked themselves in my brain. To keep from filling this post with more nervous babble I'll just list all the fandoms I have actual plot bunnies for right now: Code Geass (an AU), Axis Powers Hetalia (specifically, Hetaoni), Hetalia/Portal (crossover), Hetalia/Puella Magi Madoka Magica (another crossover, this one came to me just today and it creeps me OUT XD )...and that's it. I've got a billion snippets for all my other numerous fandoms but those are the ones that have the most substance at the moment~

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

I'm definitely an original fic writer but this year I'm thinking of writing fanfic. I'm a big fan of one-shots or really small-scale chapter deals, so I'm not sure how to extend the idea and that's what's making me back away from this a bit. If I do go down this route, any advice from everyone else with experience on making it to 50k with fanfic? :\

I'm writing an Avenged Sevenfold Fan fic. It's AU and both Brian and Zacky have a son. It's different to the other fan fics I've written for this fandom so I'm rather excited about it.

I'm doing a HARRY POTTER fanfiction novel, but I don't wan't to have too much J.K.s characters. I planned to use only Lily Luna Potter and few same professors that HP has, but I want to invent everybody else myself. And almost all happens in Hogwarts, because I'm not good at inventing places.

Hi Everyone! my second year doing Nano & I decided to go with fanfic to try and get myself writing again. A friend challenged me to do a multi-fandom fanfic with our favourite shows, so I've ended up with a Doctor Who/Torchwood/X Files/Farscape/yet-to-be-decided crossover fic. The plotting and planning has actually been harder than I thought, trying to come up with semi-believable scenarios to tie them all together. lol. But I am really looking forward to it, I'm itching to get started on what I've outlined.

I'm not 100% sure if I'm going to participate because I've got my senior project to complete this semester. If I do manage to squeeze it in, I'm going to rebel and write 50k words for my WIP, which I started writing in nanowrimo '09. It's a FFXII AU in which Rasler lives which then explores how that affects all the events that take place after, and it's panning into something much more larger than I had ever conceived. At the rate the plot is going it's going to end up at about 100-150K, and I'm only at 43K. I think I have my work cut out for me.

Doing Potterfic again this year. Last year's first installment of "A Slytherin at War" (The Last Second Chance) went pretty well, even if I finished the story well before 50,000 words and had to furiously write other things to fill the gap. This year, I'm aiming to fix that problem by putting two years worth of story into one fic. With "Advancing to the Rear," Years 2-3 of "A Slytherin at War," I will win in 2011!

I'm planning on a Harry Potter fanfic for November. (Hopefully I finish the one I'm working on now before NaNo rolls around. =P) I'm not sure if I'm going to do "The Truce" (a twist on the Severitus challenge) or "The Redemption of Severus Snape" (Death Eater!Harry!) or something completely different, but if I try to decide and start planning too early, I will not be able to finish. So I'm putting off the decision until we get a little closer. xD

Another HP fanficcer here! My MC is a few years older than the Marauders, and in Hufflepuff. I've mapped out Rachel's life until Hogwarts already, though it is crude, and will start tomorrow on a more detailed plan of the Hogwarts years. Sadly, she will be killed at age 20; I won't say if she is dark or good. :P

DanieXJ — Wed, 12 Oct 2011 18:15:09 -0500

I think that I'm going to do an ER/Warehouse 13 Fanfic. I just got into Warehouse 13. Love the characters of Myka and HG (and Claudia's cool too), but I like the idea behind the series too. Add that to the show I'm most prolific with fanfic in, ER, add in some artifacts getting flung from the Warehouse and some interesting consequences after that, and hopefully I'll have at least a 50,000 word fanfic. The past few years I've done real fics, and I'll probably even work on those during this November, but I feel so adrift at the moment when I look at those words, so, I'm hoping that doing a real, long fanfic (I've been doing shorter ones lately) with get some juices flowing and in December I'll be able to stop staring at the post-its on my wall that just haven't combined all by themselves yet to form my story.... :) Now, if only I could figure out if Christina was born in 1891 and died in 1899 (the first date given, Season Two), or born in 1883 and died in 1891 (The date given in the epi 3...2...1...). Although, the first dates work much...much better for me... :)

If I do do fanfic this year, I'll probably end up writing Homestuck. I have a really great idea involving a trans* man version of John, plus, I love contemplating the whole Scratched sessions and what will happen to the characters. But seeing as I haven't written fanfiction since I was like 12, I don't know if I'll be comfortable enough to go through with it.

*waves furiously* Hai fanficcers! Writing fanfic was my backup plan, and I actually have had an original fic idea that I'm going to write, but fanfic is still a possibility. I've written Harry Potter FF in the past (who hasn't? :D) and have been writing Torchwood fanfic most recently... however, I've JUST become really really into both Sherlock BBC and Star Trek (the 2009, so far!), and I have so many fanfic ideas whizzing around my head... gosh! So yeah, it's tempting :P Perhaps I'll just write fanfic leading up to November to get into the rhythm... :) My username is the same over on FFnet if you're interested! ^^ GOOD LUCK Wrimos!! :) Even if I don't end up writing fanfic, I'm behind all of you 100%!!

*points at icon* Thor fanfiction over here. I am about to injure myself flailing over the Avengers film, so I'm just gonna entertain myself for a month writing a massive Thor plotbunny that bit me sometime in September and hasn't let go yet. (I'd just write it for the kinkmeme except I've yet to see a prompt giving me an excuse to do so. Heh.) Also, I LOVE that I can label myself a fanfic writer instead of just picking "other". I've only done fanfic once before, but this thrills me to the core that I can show off my geekery. I also love that our icons are showing on the forums now! BOOYAH.

E. Hyde — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 14:33:55 -0500

I'm doing fanfic this year, but really, really AU. My premise is basically--in the 1930s it was entirely plausible that a spaceship could crashland in Kansas and the government would not immediately know about it. Nowadays, not so much. So a complete retelling of Superman starting from there (also, I don't follow comics at all; my exposure to Superman comes from the movies, the 1942 novelization, and a few scattered episodes of Smallville and Lois & Clark, so you can pretty much expect no adherence to canon whatsoever). ...my cat just sat on my keyboard and changed the input alphabet to Cyrillic...

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

akizakura — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 17:46:53 -0500

I'm debating on original fiction or fanfiction - I've only written a few fanfics before, for the reasons that I felt like it was a waste/unfair to use someone else's characters and that fanfiction almost seemed harder because the fans who will read it already have expectations for the characters - I think it's easier to tell if a writer takes a character off-track in a fanfic than it is in an original fiction. But I think it's good practice and I've got some goofy ideas (mostly parodies) based on some games I've been playing lately (I've been on a JRPG kick lately, so I may have to do a Persona 4 or Tales of fic) or Durarara!!. I may try the double story thing and see how quickly my brain implodes. :D At any rate, good luck to all you fanficcers out there!

Iapetus — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 19:27:37 -0500

I love the fan fic thread here. Years and years ago it's totally what saved me when I was trying to think of a story idea (I didn't know fan fiction was ok for the challenge) and I can say without a doubt that the story changed my life. It got me involved in fandom in a huge way and I'm a better person for the people I met as a result. :) (For those curious, I wrote for Saiyuki.) This year I'm doing fan fic for Dragon Age - fairly standard 'canon' for Origins and Awakening as background, and going totally AU after that for the NaNo itself (but with a lot of characters from DA2 woven in). I'm so excited for this story idea, and I highly doubt it'll get finished in 50k.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

decsar20 — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 21:06:34 -0500

So, I'm kind of definitely a rebel this year. I'm going to be working on my numerous WIPs that I have lying everywhere. My main projects are as following: Homestuck all-human AU fic. Has pretty much every couple ever. I actually started this for CampNaNo, but haven't gotten a chance to work on it since school started back in mid august. This is going to be my major undertaking, because I really want to get this done. YGO fanfiction that I haven't worked on since January. Mainly about an OC foreign exchange student. I actually really need to rewatch the show/read the manga before November, because what I kept running into with this is that I couldn't remember the show/manga very well and couldn't figure out where in the timeline it's set. >.< Then there's a couple of Homestuck oneshots that I want to wrap up, and there may/may not be a Supernatural fic started in there at some point because I'm starting to watch the show and one of my friends got me hooked on Wincest. So yeah. I'm not really concerned with finishing, since that never worked in previous years (5th year, 2nd trying fanfiction, 0 own so far). I'm more just concerned with making myself sit down and write 50,000 words. Because I am the laziest person.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

vinciolol — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 21:59:28 -0500

Well, I'm writing a Pokemon Black Nuzlocke for NaNo this year. Which I'm already planning - I'm playing though it this very second, and having a lot of fun with it. Plus, I wanted to add this to the story. However, if this story can't make it to 50000 words, I may also write another part of the saga - a Pokemon Mystery Dungeon journalfic.

Toviran — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 02:47:37 -0500

Never thought I'd do fanfic for nano but woah here I am and I'm actually really liking it. Huh! Going to attempt a Sono Hanabira ni Kuchizuke wo fanfic focusing on exploring Mai and Reo and their relationship. They're my favourite characters in the series, but I feel that their personalities got flattened out as the games progressed. (That and it's a light rom/ecchi game in the first place, it's not like there isn't a lot of room for expansion.)

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

dusk_nightshade — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 08:16:24 -0500

I suppose my first Nano project was a fanfic (2004, a novelisation of Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance; yes, it was mostly an excuse to combine the two newest interesting things in my life at that point :)) and I won with that; since then, I've stuck to trying out original stuff and that's never worked out well. I've been trawling the adoption threads for interesting things, but for some reason the stuff that's keeping my attention is all the cutesy romance stuff which is leaving me wondering "but what about the plooot?" since I don't think I can do romance... And then I found this thread, and now all those fanfic ideas I've never written won't get out of my head. The loudest ideas are two different Avatar: The Last Airbender AUs, a Primeval/Darker Than Black fusion (aw yeah, I just gave Helen superpowers), a Le Chevalier D'Eon modern AU fused with The Dresden Files, and a Nanoha/Dresden Files crossover. I don't know if I can stretch any of them out to 50k (unless I'm over-estimating how much 50k really is, or under-estimating how many words it'll take to properly tell the story), so I guess I'll just pick the one with the most notes? Good thing I keep that file on a flashdrive--it's friday and I'm at work without a lot to do...

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Melinda Milos — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 08:28:08 -0500

Well, this is my first year attempting to write for NaNo. I signed up thinking I would be able to scrape together an original idea when the time came... Then I finished rereading the Harry Potter series. Now I have an urge to write fanfiction about Albus Potter attending Hogwarts, and I know I won't be able to concentrate on something else in the meantime. XD So, fanfiction it is! I just hope I'll be able to reach 50, 000 words with this idea. D:

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

HourglassThorne — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 09:56:25 -0500

I haven't completely committed this to stone, but one of the two novels I'm considering doing is a Batman fanfiction. Last month, with all the DCnU reboot crap going on, I was really unhappy with the direction many characters and stories were taking. So I came up with an idea for my own version of a "reboot" focusing primarily on the Batman family. I already have a mind map drawn up with some ideas for the storyline. The reason why I haven't committed whole-heartedly to this story idea is the fact that I'm currently in the process of wrapping up a massive (60k+ word) successful Batman-White Collar crossover fic called Confidence Lost. I've been struggling with the last few chapters, but I'm determined to get it done before November 1. I'm not sure I won't be completely burned out on Batman by the time I'm done. We'll see.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

MissAngelAdorer — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 12:30:05 -0500

I've got two Nano ideas. One is an original idea and another is a fanfiction. The original idea is definitely being written, that I know. But I'm conflicted. I tried—and failed—at Nano last year. I tried a Harry Potter fanfic (which, like a lot of you guy's was a Marauder-era fic but AU) and barely wrote 5,000 words. I wrote more on the novel that I started about that time—and I'm still working on it. Only about 44,000 words so far. I'm probably in over my head, but . . . Eh, I don't care anymore. (Oh, and all you guys who are excited for the Avengers movie . . . I'm with you! That trailer was epic! Disney XD just better be delaying the EMH show for good reason!) As for my new fanfiction idea. Well . . . I'm probably showing my immature taste in cartoons here—actually, I know I am—but it's for Codename: Kids Next Door, centered around my favorite member of Sector V, Numbuh 2/Hoagie P. Gilligan Jr. For those who care about the plot . . . I don't know. I've got three different plots: 1, an AU Operation: IT where Hoagie didn't have time to tag anybody and got stuck being Supreme Leader, if just temporarily; 2, an AU (catching the theme here?) where Hoagie was never in KND and how he interacts with Sector V, particularly Numbuh 5; and 3, yet another AU after decommissioning where Hoagie ends up recruited into the Teenz and Abby is a spy and how they interact together with Hoagie not remembering. But, whatever. I may just stick to my original idea or scrap them all at the last minute and write something else.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

bleeding-chocobo — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 19:20:14 -0500

I'm stuck. ^^' I'm either settling on: A) Kingdom Hearts B) Fullmetal Alchemist or C) A Pokemon fanfic in Nuzlocke form, which will end up becoming a Crapsack World by the time the "hero" is born. In other words, the region of -insert region here- (I'm leaning towards either SoulSilver or Emerald..Maybe even Black version) is going to be a shitty place to live. I'll have fun with it. :) And the best part? Psycho Pokemon/Villian Team, Paranoid Townspeople and Gym Leaders and Random Encounters. :DDD Should be fun~~

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Noelle_Winters — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 20:08:45 -0500

I originally had an original work all planned out and ready to go for November...but after re-reading some Animorphs books, I just had to do a fan-fic this year. I just hate the huge gaping chasm the author left at the end of the series, so I'm gonna fill that chasm with my own fanon, lol! (So its kind of original work?) So I guess its kind of just a 'verse with a cameo appearance made by Elfangor. The book centers around the Kelbrids and The One, and exactly why they hate the Andalites so much and tell they to GTFO...except the Andalites won't STFO because the Yeerks are now buddies with The One, so now the Kelbrids have to lay on the pain. It's just a back story for my OC, a Kelbrid warrior that finds itself on a mission on Earth, and has a score to settle with Elfangor. TLDR version: I'm doing animorphs fanfic. :D

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

General Seiyaryu — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 21:17:27 -0500

Haa. Well, normally I wouldn't even consider writing outright fanfiction, and I hate the idea of doing it now. But... this Harry Potter fanfic is really getting on my last nerve and the only way to get it out of my head is to give it full consideration (i.e. try to write it). Generally, I try to steer myself away from fanfiction out of respect for those characters I have attached myself to. But dammit... poor Snape... his part in the story deserves a direct re-evaluation, one of those "what would happen if...?" types of stories. That's what I plan to do. Then I'm gonna print out the manuscript and burn it. 'Cause I'm just crazy enough and have more respect for Snape than I will actually show in the story. >_<

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Serena Darrin — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 23:13:35 -0500

I'm doing. . . I don't know if it's fanfiction, since I'm not using any cannonical characters. . . Oh well. *shrug* I'm writing in the Warhammer Fantasy universe; so I've got -a lot- of play room in terms of cannon. The story is the story behind my Bretonnian army, and the Paladin who leads them. My NaNoing has been a mix of original and fanfic -- a few years ago my NaNo was the backstory to my Tau army, from Warhammer 40k. I haven't seen a lot of Warhammer Fic on the NaNo boards. I think I'll still keep it labeled as Fantasy, as that's really what it is.

ShinyMuffin — Sat, 15 Oct 2011 05:04:24 -0500

I've decided I'll be doing a Glee crossover fic, but I'm chosing between three ideas: Harry Potter: Glee characters at Hogwarts, main HP characters a few years ahead of the Glee cast. Katekyo Hitman Reborn!: Basically, Kurt in Tsuna's place. KHR characters would be involved, but mostly in minor roles. Final Fantasy X: Undecided character taking Yuna's place. Basic plotlines etc. from the game, but the Glee characters would change a lot of events just by being there XD. Alternate idea: Yuna & co still exist, Summoner!character goes about their Pilgrimage in the background of the plot of FFX. So, I've done some worldbuilding for all of them but haven't worked out much in the way of plots yet. I can pretty much guarentee, though, that it'll end up being Klaine with some emphasis on other characters (mainly Tina, since she and Blaine are my favourites ^.^).

*peeks in* Hi guys :) My main story this year is original fantasy, but if I finish by, say... the 12th or so, I'm going to do a second one, and that will be fic. I've done three NaNo fics over the past two years (...yeah, 2009 was pretty insane XD), and the one I have in mind is actually a sequel to the second of the 2009 ones. ...Mostly because I keep getting feedback going "SEQUEL PLEASE D8" and I'd actually like to give the MC a happy ending for once. It's a Legend of Zelda fic, like my last three - if anyone's interested, they're all posted here! (The Stuff of Legends and The Sky Above, The Field Below were 2009, and The Triforce Wars was 2010.)

I've been battling so many ideas at the beginning of this month, including two fanfiction ideas and one original story. But after my rather huge original nano story last year, I'm settling comfortably in the fanfiction section again this. I'm writing Glee fanfiction (and i see so many others are too around here. Yay! :D) It's AU, set in 1830's France at a boarding school. It's going to be Kurt & Blaine (which I suppose was obvious with me...) and I'm already so, so excited about working on it. I hope it'll work out well! God knows how I'm going to balance this, a vacation, other writing projects including another fanfiction I'm writing that's set in College. But knowing me, this will probably push it's way before everything else because I'm itching to start writing it already.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

bleeding-chocobo — Sat, 15 Oct 2011 11:13:24 -0500

I know what I'm going to do. I'm going to do a KH/FMA/Pokemon crossover. It'll be AU (mostly with FMA and KH canon; not sure about Pokemon canon yet. I'll probably have an OC trainer for that ;)) and the basic plot? Eldritch Abominations/Locations, Crapsack Anime Worlds (insert Kanto and Artemis here; among others), Major AUs, and everything else that makes a dark-fic. I have plans for Sora, Ed and my OC pokemon trainer too (they'll be the trinity trio in this fic). :D Gonna be fun this year~ Just need to figure out where I'm going and I should be good to go.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

i_love_nutmeg — Sat, 15 Oct 2011 11:49:27 -0500

I'm continuing my Harry Potter fanfiction that I started last year and have been adding to all year long. It's an epic Severus-centric AU fic taking place during Potter's (can you tell I'm a Severus fan?) sixth year. If I say so myself, it's pretty messed up and dark. I'm probably going to wait until I have at least three quarters of the story done (around 500k) until I start posting it on fanfiction.net. It anyone wants to check out some of my writing there, my username is waitingforeternity (hence my icon). I hope everyone's fics go well, and if anyone needs suggestions for good HP fics to get them in the mood, I have a great collection of favourites that I can reccomend.

Holy cow! Five days and 266 posts?!? I think this thread is moving a whole lot faster than last year -- and it moved pretty swiftly then too. Anyways, I'm not 100% certain if I'm doing fanfiction yet, but since every other year I've wound up over here, I probably will. XD Right now I'm torn between my original fantasy novel, the Royai 100, and Final Fantasy VII fiction. Basically, the Royai 100 is to try and write 100 short stories based on the given prompts focusing on Colonel Roy Mustang and Lieutenant Hawkeye from Fullmetal Alchemist. My Final Fantasy VII idea is about the Turks and it'll be an action/adventure story that right now might involve these creatures sort of like zombies. XD And then my original fiction is all about assassins. Either way, I think I'm in for an interesting month. :D

Hi guys! I've decided to do a Supernatural fanfic this year.. first time so I'm curious how it'll pan out! No real plot ideas atm, all I know is it's going to wind up with some Cas/Sam. I guess I'll figure out the rest when it gets to that C:

I'm going to write a Dragon Age fanfic this year. My first time writing fanfic, and I expect it to be total Mary Sue fluff, and I don't plan to let anyone else read it EVER, but it should be good fun for me to write. I've done original stuff in the past, which leaves me with a novel-length thingy in desperate need of being edited, and I feel guilty about having four of those sitting around gathering dust. I like the idea of writing something I don't intend to publish anywhere, ever. (Not that I couldn't publish it on ff.net, or somewhere like that, but I'm planning on stealing stuff from so many other fics that I've read, I really don't think I should share this one with the world).

Gonna change a few things for my fanfic. The FMA crossover part is going to take place in an AU-CoS (Conqueror of Shamballa; love that movie. :D) in which Ed never gets back to Aretimis, Alfons doesn't die and they both begin a relationship (seriously, the whole HeixEd thing makes more sense than the entire movie, imo ;D) and will get found out. Then the Heartless will take Alfons and that's how Edward (he'll have his auto-mail limbs in this one) begins traveling with Sora and another undecided anime character. :3 Whee, this idea is gonna be fun~~

Sailor Moon fanfiction here! Anyone else? *listens for crickets chirping* I write original fantasy fiction year-round, but it's become a tradition (this will be the third year) for me to write fanfiction for NaNo. The last two years it helped me get some novels written I'd been struggling with for a while, this year I've got a shiny new fresh idea and I'm really excited!

I've been pretty embedded in the world of fanfiction as of late so ... I'm torn between an original humor story I've been thinking about since last year during NaNo or writing a slashy Kingdom Hearts story. Or maybe even, dare I say, a Mario fanfiction. What can I say, I've been on a Bowser kick lately, he's one of my favorite characters. <3 Ahem anyways, so it'll either be fanfiction or humor section for me this year, but I'm going to go out on a limb and say, fanfiction will probably prevail. Not just to think of an entertaining enough idea to last me through the month,

hookedononyx — Sat, 15 Oct 2011 20:45:30 -0500

I'm probably going to write a pair of 50k novels simultaneously. The original fic already has a summary on my profile page, but I also plan on writing a lengthy fanfic, since I've been getting into various fandoms lately, and really want to try my hand at something a bit less grim to counteract my main project next month. I'll use the word count for the original novel, but the goal is for both to reach at least 50k by the end of the month. As for fandom, I've had ideas rolling around for a few. There's a Gurren Lagann / Castlevania crossover epic that a friend and I cooked up a few months back, for one. Another crossover I've had in mind is some post-canon Radiant Historia / Puella Magi Madoka Magica. Last, but not least, I'm considering something set between Golden Sun: The Lost Age and Dark Dawn. I don't know which one to pick, though! Any recommendations? I'm leaning toward the Radiant Historia / Madoka Magica fic, simply because Radiant Historia's fandom is nearly nonexistent. It needs love!

I'm doing Fruits Basket! Anyone else? I haven't read through the thread yet and am just skipping to the end to post. laziness. Anyway, I'm doing a full re-write of my first Fruits Basket fanfiction that I'm unhappy with now. I can't even read it without wincing. *winces just thinking about it* It's YukixTohru, angst about Yuki's past, turnaround for Akito, and also fluffy and humorous every once in a great while. I still love the plotline but it needs so much help to become what I'd like it to be. =_=

poi_son_joy — Sun, 16 Oct 2011 08:50:21 -0500

I'm planning on doing some form of Batman fanfiction this year... Both ideas I have are crossover AUs, though, and involve putting Batman characters into the world of another canon. I'm just not sure which AU I'd rather write for in November! The first idea would be putting them in the world of Puella Magi Madoka Magica. I'd be drawing on various characters and characterizations from DC comics and their animated series (for example, I'd be using both Linda Friitawa, who was only in the comics, and Alice Pleasance, who was the girl the Mad Hatter tried to brainwash into loving him in The Animated Series) and making everyone high school aged, and "magical girls" would be changed to "magical soldiers" to allow for both girls and boys to be contracted. Batman and a few members of his family at a time would be off to the side, but most of the focus would be on several members of the Rogues Gallery and a few people they're attached to (such as Alice and Nora Smithy). There would end up being a lot of character death, including of characters I'd be sad to kill off, and emotional/psychological hardship. It would also include mentions of Harley/Ivy, Harley/Joker (at least one-sided), Mr. Freeze/Nora, Hatter/Alice (one-sided), and some degree of Riddler/Scarecrow. The second idea would put them in the World of Darkness universe -- specifically, Changeling: The Lost. Focus would still be on the Rogues, but this time, I'd be drawing mostly from Batman: The Animated Series, with a few elements from the comics thrown in to flesh out characters. I'm not sure where I'd start this story, but the basic idea is that fairies are real but they SUCK. The True Fae abduct humans for random, sometimes unknowable reasons, and being held in Arcadia (aka Faerie) for any length of time (and sometimes it's hard to tell what that length of time is, or if it even matters) warps the human servants until they have a touch of the Fae to them as well, and they become inhuman changelings. This might wind up including a few characters from other series as well (currently considering Madoka Magica, Homestuck, and Transformers), but I'm not sure about that. The bulk of the story would be after the characters have escaped Arcadia, and are learning to live in the human world again... somehow. It wouldn't be easy, especially because of the You Can't Go Home Again element that intrinsic to Changeling: The Lost, and the fact that changeling society is quite different from that of humans, and all changelings come back with some level of trauma. But, hey: Horror Fantasy! Can't go wrong there. As said, I'm not sure which one I'll feel like writing come November... Either way, the only people interested in these stories will probably end up being me and one or maybe two of my friends, but I'm not fussed. It should be fun and get me back in the habit of writing, anyway! :P

NaNoRebel this year. I write Harry Potter fanfic and I have three novel-length WIPs I haven't updated in... a scandalously long time, like months (due to original fic work under another name), and to my chagrin/delight they're all picking up reviews. My territory: post-war, definitely adult (tho' the Naughty Bits are more political, social, dark-view-of-human-nature than classic smut/erotica).

My second nanowrimo was a series of fairy tales based on Harry Potter with Harry and Draco as the main focus. I'm doing it again this year. New Fairy tales, new over story. It should be fun. :)

Sweet, a fanfic thread. I was starting to feel a little bit of "oh, my goodness, I'm being so lazy by doing fanfic" angst, but it'll be *fun* and that's all that matters. I'm really happy to see so many other people doing it, too. ^^ I'm willing to bet I'm the only person here doing Kamen Rider fanfic. >.>; But it'll have Digimon too! I'm using Kamen Rider Ryuki as sort of a framework for my story, and since Ryuki has a mirror world filled with monsters, I've taken that and used the Digital World instead. In order to gain power to fight, the Riders make contracts with nonverbal monsters (that will eat them if things go wrong), and so now I've got them making contracts with Digimon instead. I'm not using any of the canon characters or plots from either franchise (though Asakura, Kitaoka, and Goro from Ryuki were so, so tempting), and I'm instead populating the whole thing with original characters. It's going to be ridiculously fun; I can't wait.

I've never done first person before so this could be interesting. Oh and have I mentioned that I haven't written all year? And that this story just sorta happened during a conversation at work tonight? Yea... so don't have time to research this bad boy. Bring it.

Glee fanfiction, possibly... I don't really know for sure though. Thinking about doing something with Will/Holly since the adults are the characters I'm drawn to the most now days. Still not sure about writing something completely original and out of my comfort zone. That's probably what I should really focus on though and not rely too much on characters that are already made up. Annnd, I'm having a conversion with myself! <_< I'll stop now.

Cool, a fanfic thread! This year, I was all set to write something really complicated and dark, something psychological and really twisted... and then a friend got me into Homestuck. Now all I can write is fic. Namely, fic about OCs getting glitched into the kids' game of Sburb. Co-op mode is fun, I guess. (And of course, most of it will be about the relationships between characters after the game, because I have absolutely no clue how to write Sburb out.) So we'll see how it goes.

I'm not totally sure yet if I am writing fanfic or not. I've got some decent ideas for a couple of original stories which I am trying to research and get into some semblance of order to see if they are worth writing... but for some unfathomable reason I've also got an idea for a CSI:NY/Buffy crossover leaping about screaming: "Look at me! I'm so shiny! You know you want to spend November with me!" I've never even written CSI:NY fic before or even read much fic in the fandom, and haven't written anything for Buffy for oohhh... at least 5 years so that could be interesting. My November isn't looking busy, so maybe I will do both an original work and the fanfic - the more writing madness the better eh? :)

Briar Of The Shire — Mon, 17 Oct 2011 20:02:47 -0500

I have pretty much decided to skip past my original universe novel idea this year and do a Sherlock Holmes story instead. At first I was going to put it in the BBC Sherlock universe, but the plot I have in mind wouldn't really work in modern times, so it is going to be based on the original stories. Well, except for the inclusion of the character of Constable Clark from the RDJ movieverse - I like him :) Funny thing is, as I plot out the story I keep seeing an odd mix of actors "playing" the characters: My Sherlock Holmes is Basil Rathbone, my Watson is Jude Law, my Lestrade is Eddie Marsan (from the 2009 movie), and my Mrs. Hudson is Una Stubbs (from the BBC Sherlock series). It makes for some interesting mental images. I've been writing fanfics for over a decade (mostly TMNT, but a couple Star Trek and A-Team tossed in), but lately I just haven't had time to do any writing. I hope I can make an exception for NaNoWriMo, though! Oh, and my 15-year-old daughter is planning on writing a Team Fortress 2 / Silent Hill crossover for NaNo this year. I don't know much about either game, but I can't wait to read it when she is done :)

I may be writing a Harry Potter fanfiction. I'm not sure yet. I've been planning it for years and have never been able to get it written down because my inner editor is too picky, but we'll see if I can turn it off for NaNo. It mostly centres on a group of students at Hogwarts who are less human/normal than they pretend to be and the people who interact with them.

Last year, i tried to write an original story. It gave up the ghost, like, three days in and i ended up writing over 60k of Knights of the Old Republic fanfiction. So this year, i'm skipping straight to the fanfiction part. I'm planning on doing a Hunger Games/Leverage crossover, but if work creates too much of a time problem i might have to go Rebel and work on last year's (won the contest, didn't finish the story). That thing practically wrote itself, though the writing pretty much sucks. So, yeah. Barring some awesomely awesome original idea occurring to me in the next week or so, fanfic it is for me.

I'm writing a Supernatural fic as well, although it takes place before the beginning of the series, so my hope is that people could also read and enjoy it even if they had never seen the show. Normally I write Fantasy for Nanowrimo, so I do kind of miss that a little, but my story definitely has some supernatural/fantasy elements in there.

I'm not sure if I'm going to participate in NaNo this year. I've been putting it off because I'm bashing my head in trying to write 225wpm so I can move out of my sad existence people call life and into actually living. I'm looking at an Avatar: The Last Airbender fic or if I should push and finish the Rurouni Kenshin AU I have lingering on my hard drive. That said, the Final Fantasy fandoms don't get enough love. It's not my writing fandom but I love reading it. If anyone writes in the Pride and Prejudice fandom, I will totally stalk for story updates. No lie.

Fanfiction is where I feel most comfortable with my writing, so that's what my NaNo will be this year. I'll be writing Tokio Hotel rps. Over the summer, I participated in a TH Big Bang where I wrote a AU centering on David Host and Bill Kaulitz as vampires. While writing it, ideas for a prequel and sequel came to me, so I'm going to focus on those. I am in no way satisfied with the part that I have written because I had to rush to meet the deadline, and I'm going to be reworking that as well. I have to say, too, that I am looking forward to reading many of the stories everyone has talked about on here, especially those involving Doctor Who. :) Good luck to everyone!

I've been doing a lot more fanfic writing than original for the past year, so I'm gonna make Attempt No. I Don't Even Know at writing a fic that's longer than a PWP one-shot. I'm writing Adam Lambert RPS, pairing Adam with his RL boyfriend Sauli. And I'm turning a joking tweet Adam made earlier this year about being in his first trimester of pregnancy into trufax. Yeah, I'm doing mpreg. I know, I know--it's something that makes so many people go DDDDDDD: But I love it because it's usually a bit ridiculous, and it's so much fun taking ridiculous ideas and turning them into something serious. Anyways, in it, a few (un?)lucky men in our world can conceive and carry a child, and to Adam's surprise, not long after making a joke about being pregnant, he finds out that he really is expecting. So, he has to deal with preparing for his second album and a potentially difficult pregnancy (that includes all the other trappings of impending parenthood). Fluffy, silly, and serious. I'm only aiming for 25k, though. I've had a difficult time recently IRL, so just finishing something longer than a drabble would be awesome, and the big bang I'm writing this for only requires 10k. Though, knowing myself and my love of questionable writing decisions, I wouldn't be surprised if I change my mind and shoot for 50k anyway. I certainly have plenty of free time to do it. Now I just need to figure out enough stuff about it for a roadmap. And to acquire more caffeine in time. Anyway, good luck to everybody! ♥

So I plan on doing an original and a Fanfic. My fanfic is either going to be "Criminal Minds" or "CSI: Las Vegas" or I might do a crossover between the two. (In which case I'll have Reid and Greg as a couple 'cause I'm a hard core slasher). Does anyone else like these shows and would you guys think it would be a good crossover? Who do you like for couples for these shows? I'm all over the place with couples for both these shows lol. :D I also want to do an "Outsiders" fanfic, though I don't think it will be a NiNoWriMo one because of how long it will take me to write.

I'm writing a story that's been brewing in my head for about four years now, based around how Melody the festival maiden feels many years after the events of Pokémon 2000 The Movie. I've tried to write it so many times but I'm too much of a perfectionist without a deadline... so NaNo is my perfect opportunity to get it all down on paper and edit it later!

Can you imagine Ax dealing with all the magical candy they have? With trying to scientifically figure out his wand? Or trying to escape Hagrid from adding him to his magical creature menagerie? Meeting real centaurs and being forced to take divination class? AAAAAAAHHH soo much comedy potential! Brb...have to go plot bunny hunting before they start controlling my brain! 0_o

Oh, I can't believe I didn't stumble over this thread sooner! So, yeah, I'm writing fanfiction for my NaNo, too. I've written fanfic for NaNo the last four years, and I see no reason to break the habit now! I'm not certain what fandom I'm going to be writing for, though. Probably Tales of Symphonia, my favorite video game ever. That game took over my brain more than six years ago and it still hasn't let go. If I write Symphonia fic, I'm almost certainly going to be writing about the Renegades, like I've been doing for years. *points to icon* That guy stole my heart, so he tends to be (one of) the main character(s) I write about.

Except for a couple of short stories (nothing over 3k words), I haven't written fanfiction since I was 13. I've never written any novel length fanfiction. I'm just... I can't come up with anything original this year. It's just not clicking for me. Then along comes this fanfiction idea, and it itches and sparks in my brain, and it's challenging and wonderful. So... here I am! I'm still working on the actual plot and details part, but I'm planning on doing a Sherlock/Fringe crossover AU. I'm frankly a little terrified, because those are some intense 'verses to playing with.

The last six years I've tried original fiction and never won (last year was my closest at 33K). So dang it, this year I'm doing fanfic! :D Slightly crack-y fanfic. Take the cast of "Harry Potter". Hang them on an altered-as-I-go-along framework loosely based on "Tiger & Bunny". Hope to hit 50K. *grin* The Epilogue of DH doesn't exist, and rumors of the death of Severus Snape have been greatly exaggerated. *sage nod*

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Declaro — Thu, 20 Oct 2011 21:41:01 -0500

I haven't fully decided yet what I'm going to do for this year's NaNo (which is typical for me, I usually decide these things last minute, I did the past two years), but I strongly suspect there may be some fanfiction involved. Depending on how well I structure this/how much free time I have, I may very well end up doing one original story, one fanfic, with the goal that both end up over 50,000 words. I have two major fanfic ideas. The first is a Sherlock Holmes/Batman crossover, though, in reality, it's more a Sherlock Holmes/The Riddler crossover, because I'm pretty sure there's nothing more awesome on the planet than the world's only Consulting Detective vs. the Prince of Puzzles. (And depending on how it goes, there may very well be a cameo from Batman himself...) I'm torn between doing a modern adaption, a la Sherlock, or sticking to the canon, which I'm most comfortable with and have more ideas for. Sounds obvious but still, the modern version has some interesting possibilities... The second would be a Doctor Who AU I've had kicking around in my head for about a year, year and a half. My main idea is for the 5th Doctor and his companions, and it's basically this idea where Tardis Hall is this mysterious house in the English countryside that is passed down to a series of various men. It kicks off with Five, a retired cricket player, taking over after the suspicious death of the previous owner, Four, and mixes in some canon stories with a whole plot about the house and why the owners die. Also the companions are renting out rooms in the house. I'm really torn about the whole thing and whether or not it should even *be* a fanfic, necessarily, because without much alteration it could easily end up as some sort of original story, but the chance to interweave canon with the AU setting is just... really damn tempting! Sorry to just word vomit here, but I'm doing it with the hopes that maybe if I drop one of these out into the universe I'll get some advice about what to do.

Doctor Who/Harry Potter is my playground this year, along with half my wall space and almost a gigabyte on my hard drive. Looking forward to the frenetic world-building nano inspires! Any advice from those who know their stuff? Working on the premise of Harry raised by the Doctor but, due to requirements of the time stream, he has to go back to Hogwarts. The wizarding world isn't really ready for a Harry who actually knows stuff, or one raised by the Doctor and Jack Harkness. ^_^

I have never written fan fiction before, & I'm not sure how much my story this year will count, but I am writing based on Kolchak: The Night Stalker. It will take place in today's world & feature his daughter as a blogger & investigator of the supernatural. So, he'll be mentioned but none of the orig characters will be in it. Oh, except I want to use one of Kolchak's main foes as my primary antagonist, but I'm still working out the kinks.

i'm struggling to get a good AU for BBC Sherlock - just because AUs are so limitless and that really helps when you're trying to hit 50,000 words... i managed to get 68k doing a bandom fan fic last time i did nano, which was in 2009, but i'm missing that flair and gusto i had back then ): i'm stuck between possible plots

It's my first time doing nanowrimo and I'm planning to do a D.Gray man fanfiction! I love the anime to death and whenever I watch it I go asdfghjkl. The pairing are Kanda and Allen, though I have never wrote this pairing before. I put them together because I love their fights and I laugh like a maniac whenever I see them quarrel. This'll probably make me more enthuasic about writing.♥ I'm thinking of them being in a music school, and they get grouped together with a few others and has to improve their skills and do performances and what not. I think it'll be interesting and I can't wait for November! Oh, and until the end of Nanowrimo, I'm putting my other fictions on hold. Hopefully, I won't lose my motivation when I get back to it. ><

I'm going to finally finish, I hope, the fanfic I started two Nanos ago. It's a multi-fandom crossover of : The Sentinel/Pitch Black/ Stargate SG1/NCIS/Man From Uncle/ Aliens/ X-Files. It's also slash. I am reading it this week and my only concern is running out of steam. Ah well, we shall see. hugs.

This year I was planning on doing a Doctor Who and Torchwood crossover with the thirteenth Doctor being kind of emo. He also looks eighteen. However, my current story just latched onto my plot bunnies like a bad fungus, so I'm going with it. Good luck to everyone here!!!

So uh. I'm actually quite ridiculous because I'm working on this big massive crossover of crossovers in a modern AU setting. Game of Thrones, Sirens, SPN, PJO annnd the HBO war trifecta are the fandoms involved. Like I said, one big massive crossover but I'm only taking two characters from each series and putting them in this modern AU. I actually have no idea why I'm doing this and how or why but the idea came to me in July and has not left my mind since. So don't mind me, I just have actually lost my mind. Off I go.

*joins in line with the other BBC Sherlock fanfiction writers* I'm going to write a crossover between Sherlock and FortySomething I chose FortySomething because it's not a too well known series and when searching for possible crossovers this one provided me fairly quickly with a proper idea to work with. It will mostly focus on the Sherlock fandom as it will be a casefic, but Rory is the MC and his family also will make some appearances.

I'm doing another Katekyo Hitman Reborn fanfic this year. I'm so totally in love with the anime/manga. I had originally meant to do a sequel to last year's, but I didn't finish it (53,000 words, but incomplete), so I can't continue the plot. I think I'm doing a Xanxus/OC and then slashing a bunch of the canon characters together. (Yaoi fangirl reporting for duty!!)

Pishalver — Sat, 22 Oct 2011 17:30:01 -0500

For my first year here, I wanted to write about something that I was completely comfortable with. So, I chose my two favorite fandoms. I'll be writing a Portal and Final Fantasy VII crossover. It's an idea I've had since Portal 2 released and I haven't had a proper chance to work with it until now. A lot of the Portal aspects will be a little AU, mostly so I can play with the timelines in it. I can't wait to write this and really flesh out this idea.

I tend to alternate fanfic with original fic, and this year is fanfic's turn. I have a couple of ideas in mind for my fandom (Thunderbirds, the 1960s Supermarionation show and occasionally the 2004 movie of the same). One is a sequel to my one live-action movie-verse story, and the other is a steampunkish thing using the TV cast and setting it in a world like that found in the webcomic, Girl Genius. The problem is: neither of these are getting me excited, and I have several WIPs I'd love to clean up - including one I picked up again during Camp NaNoWriMo's August session. I got 12 chapters done, and I've stalled out. Sigh. I may end up being a rebel and working on that (and my other two already published WIPs).

Totally writing a Disney Princess/Loki fanfic... like, I'm making Loki the villain in general/the antagonist, and having the ten Princes get all mad, because Loki kind of kidnapped the ten official Princesses and sent them into the eight realms *minus midgard* :D It will be completely random and exciting. Last year I worked on my AIO fanfic. Fanfiction is just SO much easier for me to write than original. I did have two original ideas in my mind for this year, but I needed something easier to write. School is already going to be hectic.

I am aiming to finish a WiP I started during last year's NaNo. Several personal setbacks made it impossible for me to get all the way to 50k, but I very recently decided to get up and try it again this year! It's a Battlestar Galactica fic. Basically it's an AU covering the last three quarters of Season 4. And I don't want to spoil anyone who might watch BSG, so let's just say that two people who are human in canon find out that they're Cylons in my story. Angsty hijinks and much butt-kicking ensue. I'm having fun mixing in elements of philosophy, mythology, and politics (basically everything that helps make BSG compelling), along with a little bit of mystery. I checked yesterday to see what my pre-NaNo word count would be and it's 33,000. So my goal is to push right through to 83,000 words (or more) and finish this bad boy up. I'm somewhat nervous because, unlike last year, I have a full-time job. And I'm still a perfectionist who has issues just putting words on the page without having the *exact* word I want. So this should be a good challenge, but I think I'm up for it. Now I'm off to work on shoring up my outline...

I'm doing Doctor Who fanfic for NaNo this year =] Basically picking up where xeries 6 left off with the Doctor coming to visit River during her nights in prison and taking her away for adventures and trying to make sense of his own feelings for her. I love Matt Smith's Doctor (and Smith himself, just a little...) and I LOVE River so it was the natural choice =] I did have my idea for next year's NaNo sorted as well (was gonna do a very slashy DW fanfic involving the Doctor and the Master as teenagers on Gallifrey) but after reading this there's so many others I could do too! Liking the idea of a Pokémon fanfic, which I may have to do some OC with, but I think Zelda and Final Fantasy would work great too. Good luck to anyone and everyone doing fanfic!! =D

Hey, fan fiction writers! I'm not actually writing a fic for NaNoWriMo (autobiographical college chick lit is calling), but I got started writing with fan fiction over ten years ago, and I adore fandom to no end. If you'll forgive the shameless plug, I recently started a literary magazine called Fanhaven that's dedicated to fan fiction/art, and I'd really love more submissions! I'm also looking for editors, if you're interested in helping run the show. :D Please check it out and consider submitting!

Hunger Games fanfiction, anyone? Yup. But just set in the world, not involving any of the actual characters from the books. Because... I love that world so much and there's so much that can be done with it... or maybe I'm just too lazy and unoriginal to come up with my own dystopian world. :)

A few friends, who shall remain nameless, have dragged me kicking and screaming into Dave Duncan's The King's Blades. Along the way, I ended up with a fondness for Amby and the Samarindans. (There are questions you probably shouldn't ask.) So, I'm writing an AUish thing in which there's no time-twisting, Malinda's somewhat-happily married to Radgar, and no-longer-sickly Prince Ambrose is about to take over from his regent of nine years, Chancellor Roland. And then there are Samarindans! And Khemti and Kermans and all the rest. I had to...fill in a few gaps. Apparently there's no map of this universe (yes, I asked). This project has no title, as of yet, and it's secondary to the main one. But if there are any other TKB people out there, I'd love to hear from you--otherwise, the fandom only has five people in it!

I'll be attempting to write a continuation of Weiss Kreuz Side B, since the mastermind of said canon can't be assed to finish it in a way that makes sense and ties up all the loose ends of the story. So picking up at the very end of canon materials, I'll be working through the fallout of an utter disaster of an assassination attempt (from the assassins' viewpoint) while they get to dodge drugged-out super soldiers with most of their support network unavailable, half of them very nearly dead (get to figure out a way to keep them alive too, yay! Though I already have, and it should prove entertaining), and trying to continue the mission just because it's in their (and everyone else's, really) best interest to find out who the heck is really behind all these shenanigans and put a stop to it.

savvyliterate — Mon, 24 Oct 2011 23:32:13 -0500

I'm writing a Doctor Who/In Death crossover that's actually the reworking of an older idea with the same premise that never quite got off the ground: "In New York 2060, a series of corpses appear all with the same strange mark - a chest cut open to reveal two hearts. The NYPSD is looking for a man believed is obsessed with creating a medical miracle, but Lt. Eve Dallas is not quite sure who's at fault, but she's quite sure that the strange British man in tweed and a bowtie and his three companions have something to do with it." And, yes, Nora Roberts does allow In Death fanfiction. I'm not sure why FF.net says she doesn't, she's made a public statement on it and it's on InDeath.net. (She says, to sum it up, "Go for it, and have a good time.") The story is largely going to be centered on the current Team TARDIS (expect a lot of Eleven/River since it's post-series 6 and I am admit to shamelessly shipping them) trying to crack the mystery alongside the ID team.

I'm wavering between writing DS9 fanfic or Harry Potter fanfic. Or Gummi Bears. o_o I know I'm not writing something original this year. Or maybe I will. I can't seem to make up my mind. But I always use NaNo as a time to get some fanfic chapters completed during writers block moments.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Lady September — Tue, 25 Oct 2011 07:49:04 -0500

I've been trying to come up with something original this year, but if that doesn't work out I might dive into fanfiction land. Last time I participated—I didn't last year—I won with a Harry Potter fanfic revolving Jim Potter, Harry's son, so obviously that works. If I decide to go with fanfiction, I'll probably join my fellow Whovians with Doctor Who. More specifically, a Ten/River story, because I don't think they never met in the gap between FotD and ToA. I was thinking of going with a significantly younger River, maybe from sometime after LKH but before the ending of CT. I've got a feeling that it'll be reasonably short, though, probably around twenty-five thousands words, so I'll need a backup plan anyway. A BBC Merlin plot bunny has been bugging me for years now, so I might write that, too. It's a modern day Merlin/Morgana. Morgana, plagued with dreams from the past, will realize that there's a lot more to it than she thinks. It would basically lead up to the rebirth of Arthur. As I said, I don't know yet. (I've still got a couple of days to figure it out, don't push me!) We'll see, but I'll definitely be hanging around this thread.

So basically god, mother earth whatever looks around and is like "Hey the world's turning to darkness! Can't have that!" So she awakens "champions" to her cause and holy crap I just had a plot breakthrough. Er... anyhow to help with this heavy burden she also gives them soulmates. And basically that's what its all about. Apocalypses and soulmates. I'm a little worried about it sounding cheesy and awful though.

Taking on a Hetalia fanfic set during the War of 1812. I considered doing original fiction for it, but I can't think of any characters and the Hetalia boys are shoving their way into my brain and getting in the way. I've never tried for a 50,000 word story so I figure it will be a good exercise even if it is fanfiction. Also, the research required for this would probably pave the way for actual historical fiction. I'm looking forward to it. :)

I'm afraid I'll be leaving your company. There is no way for me to stretch out my plotted Sherlock Holmes fic to 50,000-word novel length, so I will be putting that story off until the end of the year. Still, I can't go back to my original story idea (too "heavy" at this point), so I'm starting a whole new... something. I'll figure this out :) Good luck on your fanfics, everybody!

I'm doing a Harry Potter fanfiction. There are very few, in my opinion, good canon Marauders stories that go through all of their years of Hogwarts. A friend of mine and I started planning it in high school (5+ years ago, I'm feeling old now :/). We would go through it together. Then she would write it down, and I would extreme beta it. However, she wrote the first few chapters (very short ones) and then a few here and there through out the whole 7 years we were planning. It's been nearly 3 years since she worked on it. I stumbled across the files on my computer, and decided I wanted to take over the reins of it. I'm a huge stickler to canon, so that's what it's going to be. (Sorry, no Sirius/Remus, nothing against it though) However, there are going to be some OCs since, quite frankly, for a good Marauders story, there needs to be at least a few OCs to help fleh it out more. I'm going to go over what my friend had and rewrite it, because while I like what she wrote, we have different writing styles.

I don't want to give too much away (because things may change dramatically during the writing process) but it's basically how Bill and Tom's selfish urges get them involved in the black market in order to gain what they have always wanted but in turn it brings them lots of trouble.... Well at least that's the idea for now. It may not end up anything like my original bunny or said bunny may die within the first week and another will be born and take it's place... Who knows.... :)

I, too, am doing a fanfic, and for my very first NaNo. I'm taking the story behind the video game Phantasy Star Online and adding whole bunches more to it. I'm very excited for this because I've been trying to write this fanfic for years but every time I go to do it, I write one scene I really want to and then sort of lose interest. Hopefully NaNo will allow me to actually follow through and finish it.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Wolfengoose — Fri, 28 Oct 2011 03:40:14 -0500

As some of the posters above me stated, I am doing my first NaNo by writing a fanfic. Star Wars has always interested me with the vast rich fictional history of it's universe (check out the timeline on Wookieepedia) and with a highly anticipated game coming out (The Old Republic) I wanted to do something fun for it. The outline is still being tweaked but takes place a couple decades before the onslaught of the Empire against the Republic (Some 3,000 years before Luke Skywalker). It centers around a man waking up in a field with no memories and picked up by a small science team. The adventures of who he is, what happens to those around him, and the secrets he finds within his own mind go from there. I am trying to veer away from it being Jedi/Sith heavy and make something of a unique story that uses the history and worlds of Star Wars to frame it. Yes, Twi'leks are involved :D

I’m writing Harry Potter fanfiction. In a nutshell, Tonks investigates a suspected Death Eater attack on the London Underground and finds a young girl unconscious on the tracks. As the girl’s history is revealed, Tonks becomes convinced that she has some connection to her twin brother, who disappeared during the first war against Voldemort. There is a healthy side order of Bill Weasley and Lupin, along with Snape, because I am still in denial about the events of Deathly Hallows. Also the girl seems to be developing into a secondary protagonist, if my chapter plans are anything to go by... Slightly bonkers and veering off into AU territory after the events of Half Blood Prince, but it keeps me entertained, and I’m hoping that come December I’ll have a completed story that I’m proud of having written :-)

I was rather torn about what to do for this Nanowrimo. I've been stuck in the worst block for years, but after deciding (Or rather harassing my friends aimlessly for a week or two between my choices and reading Das Mervin Sporkings ) I decided I was going to write a fanfiction! If only to make me lighten up a bit, and since I'd had this old Twilight Fanfiction circling around in my head I decided to go with that. Yes I know. ): BUT GOSH DARN IT TO HECK (Oh indeed pardon my french) I just wanted to play around with things. And by fanfiction I just mean playing around with the universe with a bunch of OCs for shits and giggles. Okay, to be totally honest. I just wanted to be snarky and parody all sorts of vampire/supernatural romance/teen romance things and Twilight was an easy target. Also I wanted to insert my most morally ambiguous, depraved, and disgusting excuse for a hero in as a love interest and see if by THE POWER OF CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT could somehow make it work. ): I'm going to kill myself. I'm aware that it's mostly going to be tongue and cheek, but nothing I want to be humorous ever stays that way. OH WELL. AT LEAST IT WILL BE FUN. IT'S NANOWRIMO. Who needs self respect anyways?

So in the process of roleplaying AU shenanigans with friends of mine, my Marvel fic went "NOPE I CAN WAIT" and got booted quite firmly out of the way by a Homestuck AU because clearly I am a giant nerd. One with too much time on her hands who likes writing needlessly convoluted stuff. Plotting pairings for this thing is going to be such a pain in the butt. Because I like my romance. And I have about four kinds to choose from. x_x

Well hello, fan fiction writers. I was considering a hetalia fan fic... This is my first time writing, I'm so very scared that my writing style isn't pleasant, I was considering writing it then keeping it to myself in fear of becoming a world renowned horrible writer. Anyway, I'm doing some sodomy during the Elizabethan era, USUK to be exact (To most it's overrated, to me it's well loved.) because I've been a history geek long before hetalia and the Elizabethan era is so interesting. Scared I'll also get some points in history wrong. DX It would have been original... But I'm going to be much too busy today and tomorrow to come up with some super wonderful male main characters and side characters... I wish you all luck.

I normally don't write fanfiction mainly because I panic over not having good characterizations and being ridiculed for any ideas I have by others. That is, of course, amazingly silly though and I'm thinking about kicking those fears away and trying my hand at it. :D It'll probably be Homestuck-related (thank you, EOA5 for making me obsessed with it again), either about Lord English (because I have many feelings about him that won't shut up) or Pre-Scratch Ancestors or mtf!Rose. I'm still debating and playing around with ideas. ._.;

VERNE + BEOWULF IN SPAAAACE just sounds like a blast. I've never written long stories well, being an ENFP and all that, but what the hey, it's really nice to be writing again :)

I've helped with other people's fanfics on other websites, but its never lasted long, so this will be interesting since it won't be one of those "never-ending" deals. I'm so excited about how all this is going to work out and I hope everyone has a good time with their fanfics too! Best of luck w/ Nanowrimo, everyone! :)

A fellow fanfic writer here! I'm writing for Pandora Hearts this year...50,000 words of my OTP (Ozbert in case anyone's familiar, haha). Good to know I'm not the only one fanfic-ing it out for nanowrimo. <3

I supppose my novel falls under this category this year. xD I don't know if anyone's heard of the play The Lower Depths by Gorky, but I'm writing a sequel of sorts to it. I"m in the play right now as Natasha, and I absolutely adore this show. And since a lot of my time is already going to be focused on this play and developing my character, I think it'll be easier for me to keep up with NaNo by just using what I'm doing to my advantage. If anyone's heard of/read the play before, drop me a line! The version my school is doing is this British adaptation that I really like, but some parts of it are different than the original, so therefore my fanfic is going to be based off that version. :)

Second year participating in NaNoWriMo, first year actually poking my head into the forums to see what's up. And yes, this year I'm doing fan fiction for my NaNoWriMo project. This is a Transformers fic, of all things. ^^; Specifically, a fanfic combining the multiple universes of the Transformers franchise (the original cartoon, the movies, the Japanese cartoons, the new shows, the comics, etc.) and a group of humans who find themselves chosen to help save all the universes from certain destruction. While I do plan on plenty of giant robot action scenes, this will mostly be a character-driven fic, focusing on the heroes and why they fight, their interactions with the Transformers and each other, and their challenges and fears. This idea has been eating my brain for months now, so now is the time to put the plot bunny to good use, I feel. Wish me luck, y'all!

First year participating for me, and I’m attempting a Naruto fanfiction. It centres around Minato, and one of my favourite genres, Time Travel. I adore TT! <3 The base story is that something goes wrong with his Hiraishin technique in Kakashi Gaiden, and he gets thrust into a future where his son hasn’t been born because Minato was ripped our of his timeline. Naturally this has various problems... The idea's been festering in my brain for about a year, so hopefully I can complete it!

Hello! Autumn here and first time here at NaNo! I've written a few fanfics for Harry Potter, Friends, Confessions of Georgia Nicolson, Westlife (this counts right?), Glee, Dawson's Creek, Naruto, RENT, South Park and The Big Bang Theory (this one stressed me out a lot, I'm not as smart as any of the guys there, good thing I'm a fan of Star Wars, Star Trek and kinda on LotR). :D

rubywaves — Tue, 01 Nov 2011 16:01:16 -0500

Huh. Looks like I'm the only one writing a Hanna-Barbera fanfic. *shrugs* Ah, well, it's still going to be fun, especially when I put the mafia, Top Cat characters, and an illicit romance into the Writer's Blender. *sets it to liquefy*

media_nocte_in_saecula — Tue, 01 Nov 2011 16:03:10 -0500

First year actually participating (joined last year). I'm just going to be writing a Twilight fanfiction, since that's my area in writing. Anyone else doing Twilight? I'm going to be doing one of the (probably) cliche ideas you see on Fanfiction.net all the time - OC/canon character. Specifically, OC/Leah Clearwater. Because Leah needs some love. Though, I'm 99.999999% sure it won't be mutual love at first sight - where's the fun in that? :/

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Roshiyu — Tue, 01 Nov 2011 18:07:54 -0500

It was a toss up for me this year, with two ideas vying for dominance. First, was a NarutoxFemkyuubi fic. Throw in some timetravel, and an alliance between all 9 Jinchuuriki. The other was a Digimon fic. Sort of a modern day Robin Hood spin. After suffering bloody warfare in my head all day at work, Digimon won out.

I'm writing a fanfiction for Minecraft! However, depending on how you look at it, the novel may not be considered a fan fiction as it acknowledges that Minecraft is a game. However, the main character gets sucked into the game and the only way out is to beat the game but Minecraft doesn't have an end...

Cumulus Curator — Tue, 01 Nov 2011 21:53:16 -0500

Hello everyone! This is my first time with NanoNoWriMo. My idea most likely will not work out as good as I had hoped, but I'm still going to try at least. ... It is a My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic crossover. No OCs, Canon!Luna, Slumber Parties, Broken Wing!Rainbow Dash, and a ridiculously silly explanation as to why Nightmare Moon does not use the royal we or the Royal Canterlot voice. Yes.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Faylinn Night — Tue, 01 Nov 2011 21:55:10 -0500

Haha, it's so amazing to hear fanfiction of permitted in NaNoWriMo. Ya know, since that's basically all I write. Any original ideas are turned into comics, and those take a lot of store board planning and whatnot. xD TMNT is what I'll be writing baby! Those turtles rock my socks. 8)

So nobody kill me, but I'm doing a Twilight fic. I'm not a big fan (I found the story okay, the writing mediocre, and the only movie I saw laughable), actually looking at that breakdown I'm not a fan period, but it's a challange my friend gave me because I mocked the fandom so much. Anyone have advice for doing a fanfic when you aren't a fan?

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Down — Wed, 02 Nov 2011 07:26:54 -0500

I'm here fanficcing for the first time since my first nano back in 2005 - which technically ISN'T FINISHED (four chapters to go, FOUR CHAPTERS TO GO- and it's over 200,000 words but SOME of that is going to be trimmed when I go over the earlier chapters. One day soon!) but I'm getting a start on the sequel, as that one was APPARENTLY the first book in a trilogy. D: So... 2017, book three? XD Anyway, I'm writing Magic Knight Rayearth, because it OWNS MY SOUL FOREVER \o/~ Now I just have to work out where to put the explosions in this time. XDD

I probably get the "Most Obscure Fandom" award. My NaNo was originally going to be a steampunk fantasy, but in the last weekend of October I discovered the Addams Family musical- and from then on, the plot bunnies took over. Plot bunnies with crossbows. I doubt the story will have the staying power to make it to 50,000 words, but it'll be fun to try.

Hello! This is my second year doing NaNo (I did it back in 2006), but my first time writing fanfic for it. I'm probably going with a Big Bang Theory fic (because that's my current obsession), something with Leonard/Penny, but I'm still trying to figure out the plot.

Volkenon — Wed, 02 Nov 2011 16:54:40 -0500

First time posting to the forums this year. Man, I am late to the party but glad to be here none-the-less. I at first thought I wouldn't being writing anything this go around, since no plot was coming to me. But literally on Halloween night a plot finally came. Its not fleshed out since I didn't have the time to plan it out, which is unusual for me (I have a tendency to plan out everything to the bone.) Anyway, I'm writing a Axis Powers Hetalia AU fanfic. It will be dealing with kingdoms, religion, romance, vengeance, and Lovino's bad mouth. Good luck to everyone! Let us all reach the top together.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Relden Calder — Wed, 02 Nov 2011 20:05:48 -0500

Writing Naruto fare. Time Travel (like what seems to be most of the stuff out there), but plot is... not quite backseat, but riding shotgun to characterisation. There is still a plot, but this has turned into an opportunity to give the neglected characters the respect they never got in-canon. Had this since 2007, started writing already, but I really, really, want to get this finished before I hit middle age, so here's hoping NaNoWriMo can help me here. 50000 words, HO!

I'm a Rebel (35k already written for it), so I'm already at the good part of the plot and having lots of fun with it :D Good luck to everyone!

So Hey! First post. . . first nano. . . all that jazz. I'm doing a pretty ambitious Criminal Minds rewrite featuring the deep and tooby love of Emily Prentiss and Jennifer JJ Jareau, with some saucy Derek/Garcia thrown in for good measure, with cameos of renamed members of the glee cast and with some plot devices from the premier 90's femmeslash show Xena. Yeah. It's kinda crazy. Figure Fanfic is a good place to get my writing feet wet so, here I go! Here is to hoping that my Dragon software helps me get to 50k. Good luck everyone!

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

centreoftheselights — Thu, 03 Nov 2011 12:29:58 -0500

I'm writing 25k this year due to time constraints and doing it in the form of various fanfics - mostly one-offs so far but with a few I'm planning to turn into chapters. I've never written fanfic before but I've already tried out Harry Potter, Doctor Who, Merlin and Dr Horrible with plenty more ideas... although, since I'm only averaging 750 words a story, probably not enough ideas.

And for extra incentive to finish this year i'm posting it to ff.net to make sure i try and write at least 2000 words a day.

I'm doing Doctor Who fanfic this year! I love Captain Jack Harkness more than most things, and there has been a sad lack of him recently in the show. (I know, I know, Miracle Day, but Eleven needs to meet Jack immediately.) Right now the story is in a bit of a sad because Jack is pissy with the Doctor, but he's going to get over it real soon whether he actually wants to or not. Flirty hijinks are half the fun.

New to writing fanfics, but I had an idea for a Bioshock sequel. Timeframe around 1990s, concerning Jack's son and the genetics he's inherited. Any tips for general setting / historical details to take note of? or general do's / don'ts for fanfiction?

Going to be writing some fan-fic for the underappreciated game Chrono Cross for the PS1. It's really too bad that so much of the game had to be cut out due to time constraints. It would've been quite the game had it had everything in it that it should've (though we probably would've been looking at at least 3 - 4 discs, if not eve 5).

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Jasmine.Kitty — Sun, 06 Nov 2011 10:51:41 -0600

Supernatural erotic fiction. *shifty eyes* My original plot abandoned me and I signed up for too many fic challenges. Then one of those plots ambused me and demanded to get a huge novel to itself. So now it's an AU running parallel to Dean's journey to 2014 in cannon, only a great deal more porny. Because it's Sam/Lucifer. And Lucifer commanded it. As you can see, it is totally not my fault that I like writing apocalypse!fic and that Lucifer is such a magnificent, magnificent b*stard. (Or at least that's what I'm sticking to.)

Disastergirl — Sun, 06 Nov 2011 14:31:23 -0600

I'm so glad to see there are so many other fanfic writers here. :D I've never done NaNo before and even though I *knew* loads of people write fanfic for it, scrolling down the main boards that didn't seem to be the case... :S Anyone here writing for FMA?

Well, after spending the entire year doing rewrites on last year's original fiction NaNo project with an eye to eventual publication, I found that I hadn't a clue as to what to write for this year. Until I went to our regional kickoff & heard a bunch of people give the answer "fanfiction" when asked what they were going to write. Fanfic is where I began writing, & I still had the first paragraphs of an Escaflowne fanfic, started many years ago & never finished, on my hard drive. :DOH! So that's what I'm doing this year, finishing the story that's been rattling around in the back of my brain for so long....

I was worried I was one of the few that would be writing fanfiction for Nano, so I'm glad to see that I'm not alone. I don't know how well this crossover is going to play out, but my project for the month is a combination of Harry Potter and the Avengers. I know there's definitely going to be some AU-ness, and the plot bunny just wouldn't leave me alone.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

angelictoxin — Fri, 11 Nov 2011 00:26:12 -0600

This is my fourth year doing NaNo and my first time not writing an original novel and in some ways, it's far more challenging because all of the characters already have voices... it can be quite tricky to get it to work, especially for somebody more used to working with original fiction where I can nail all of the characterization because the characters are mine. I'm writing a Glee piece, my first longer than about 10k, with the eventual goal of having it ready and up on ffnet. It really took off after the airing of "The First Time" which has made it tough because I had to go back and restructure almost everything after starting over on day 5 but so far, so good! I seem to be completely outnumbered by Klainers but I can get into any well-written fic piece so I hope everybody's is going well!

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Meghan Williams — Fri, 11 Nov 2011 02:22:39 -0600

First off, bro-hoofs to the MLP:FIM fic writers. Second, look at me procrastinating by posting in the forums! XD So, after reading some of the crossover ideas y'all are working with, I don't feel like mine is quite so crazy. It's a Buffyverse/Avatar: The Last Airbender fusion (Buffyverse characters/plot, Avatar world) with Buffy as the Avatar a few cycles previous to Aang. It's working out way better than I hoped, but the damn thing is getting HUGE. Seven years of plot is a lot to condense into a novel.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

DanieXJ — Fri, 11 Nov 2011 08:13:29 -0600

Speaking of characterization I totally had all my characters down pat (Warehouse 13/ER crossover) and now I have three out of the four, argh, lost what the heck HG Wells sounds like, talks like, and generally is a chapter or so ago, oy.... Now she's reading all like a twenty first century American..... ack.... I'm usually much better at Fanfic than this, ack.....

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Lix H. — Fri, 11 Nov 2011 09:01:50 -0600

I'm not writing fanfic as my main NaNo project, but I am writing fanfic as a side project -- for mini_nanowrimo @ livejournal. I'm doing better with it than with my NaNo novel; I'm about to hit 24,000 words on the overall story, 10k of which have been written this month. It's a Pretty Little Liars gen fic, Spencer-centric (and heavy on her relationship with her sister Melissa), which I like to refer to as "vampires in Rosewood, or, Spencer the accidental slayer," because that's pretty much what it is about. I'd like to wrap it up in another 10k or so, though I'm not sure that's a feasible goal given I originally meant for the story to be around 8k and I still have two big fights to get through and space out.

So originally I had plans to do an original.. but after 12 days of just not being able to formulate a story I was most confident with, I decided to go with a fanfic. I'll be a little behind, but that's ok!:) I wanted to write a Kakashi/Sakura fic... but lately, I have been wanting to divulge into my old love for Yugioh and write a Bakura/Anzu... What do you guys think? Anyone else writing something along those lines? Or just a Naruto or Yugioh in general? Send me a message and maybe we can talk about our ideas! ^_^

So, not participating in NaNo this year (considering today is the first time I've ever heard of it), but I DO have a pair of Fanfic's I've been meaning to write. The first is a Black Lagoon/NCIS Crossover that delved into Revy's past in Boston and New York, while the second is just a straight up AU Fanfic for Black Lagoon that focuses on what might have happened if Rock had actually taken that gun from Balalaika and kept it (Fans of the series will know wat I am talking about here). Anyways, if you guys could offer up any tips or pieces of advice for a fledgling author, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Except it's going to be so much longer than 50k words. I don't know how long exactly but I'm not even anywhere close to finishing the story and I'm already past 35k so uh yeah... o.o;

Hi everyone, thought I'd pop in here as well, having long-since abandoned my original fiction attempt (computer issues, personal commitments, too much hassle) and have decided to get as much out as possible of a fan fiction instead. I'm not expecting to hit 50k (at least in November), but it should be super fun! I'm doing a Lethal Weapon/Supernatural crossover (may seem slightly strange, but it works!).

My thought right now kind of bases itself around the relationship between Voldemort and Nagini, that there is some sort of soul/power center created there, which Harry will use to rid the Dark Lord once and for all. Intriguing? Sound stupid? Any suggestions? Ideas?

I'm writing a crossover of Cabin Pressure and The Hunger Games (Cabin Pressure is a radio drama written by John Finnemore and it's BRILLIANT), which isn't really going well. Although to be honest I'm doing it in December instead of November so NOTHING about it is right.

I'm doing a fanfiction for a somewhat obsolete book. Though, the first book was only released last year and it hasn't gotten MUCH traction. The book is called THE GIRL WHO CIRCUMNAVIGATED FAIRYLAND IN A SHIP OF HER OWN MAKING and you would think that with a title like that, that it would get more attention. ^-^ Any advice for the poor poor girl writing a fanfiction for a book nobody probably read before other than not writing the fanfic at all? XD

I really don't seem to fit in, but my NaNo piece was from a western series, "The High Chaparral." I even came up with a fanfic/AU idea that I'm working on now that may, hopefully, turn into another idea for 2012 NaNo.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

mixeduppainter — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 01:24:03 -0600

NaNo is over (sadly) but now I'm writing fanfiction so here I am. Hello. First attempt at fanfiction in at least a good ten years and I'm using Supernatural. I think it's going... okay. Been posting it online and I am addicted to reviews. It's seriously getting pitiful. Though it is nice to get feedback so quickly from people.

I thought I swore off fanfiction after writing my Nanowrimo last year. Yes... it was a plot that was in my head a long time but for some reason, I found it exhausting. I finished nanowrimo, but never wrote the last chapter in detail. Just let it be, since it already had sort of a conclusion and an ending that kind of wrapped everything up. But then another idea has been pestering me for months on end.... X-files/Jurassic Park crossover. Because it just seems to fit, and after looking all over the internet still couldn't believe I only found about one or two fanfics covering this theme. Seems so obvious...and I can think of a million different ways that could be handled right. Maybe for camp nano?

I was sitting oh-so-innocently at my desk at work yesterday when a rabid plot bunny mauled me. By lunchtime, I had a general plot synopsis, and by dinner, I had a working outline with significant details for chapter one. I ended up writing 2200 words last night, and chapter one isn't finished. This is quickly turning into an epic rewrite of half a season of a TV show. (Okay, fine, I admit it, I'm writing Power Rangers in Space fanfiction.) I swear, I wasn't planning on writing this. I was supposed to be preparing for Script Frenzy! Or working on original fiction! But this is eating at my brain now, so I'm just rolling with it. I have a hard time planning out epics and then following through on them, so I'm hoping maybe this time I'll finish the thing.

As ever, I am going to be writing fanfiction this year. For YuGiOh. But I'm in a little bit of a quandry as I normally write Seto/Jou, but this year all I have spinning around my head is a Seto/Anzu - and that's not a pairing I'm really into. So do I go with what's in my head, or go for the plot I was originally intending to write? I guess I have a couple of weeks to decide. *sigh*

I'm definitely excited and rooting for you! Wow, eight years of planning... So much potential! I'm curious as to what it is! If you ever need a soundboard on anything ReBoot-related, or just want another fan to talk to, or want to get connected to other fans, or WHATEVER (whew), by all means, send me a line!

Aha! This is also my third year doing YGO for NaNoWriMo. The first year was a Seto/Jou crossed over with Ranma 1/2, the second time was just a Seto/Jou story with half of it being set in Ancient Egypt and the second half being in the modern day. (I still haven't finished this one. I should get back to it sometime.) This years, as I said above, is giving me a problem. I'm currently coming down on the side of writing the Seto/Anzu that is actually in my head, but I had originally planned to write Seto/Jou... Thief King Bakura/Malik/Anzu? LOL, that does sound like crack. Props to you if you can pull it off. ^_^

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Raquelin — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 08:39:54 -0500

Just to have fun, and don't let yourself get too trapped by the box that is canon. It's not like anyone's judging you if you say screw it and completely turn something on its end. In fact, it's widely encouraged. :)

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Tom M. Surname — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 09:46:34 -0500

If you're a planner, you might want to create character profiles for canon characters. Yes, they're premade, and yes, you know and love (or hate) them, but it's easy to miss a detail or two in the speed of NaNo or discover that canon left ambiguous a trait that you now desperately need (this is particularly the case if you have a lot of characters, if you're writing about lesser-known or minor canon characters, or if your story is set in the past or future). Writers like me, who have problems with dialogue, might also want to construct a file of canon quotes, a few characteristic ones for each lead; that way, if you're wondering if X would say something, you can instantly refer to your file and get an idea of his speaking style. That's much faster than searching through the book/series/game every time you need to check something. Hope one of these suggestions helps, and good luck!

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Rubyfruit — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 11:48:50 -0500

Advice from someone who has been writing fanfic for over ten years, I say...just go. Raquelin's right, don't get too trapped by the Canon Box. I have a saying that I've heard and then fell in love with and have taken to heart: "Canon is a Guidebook, not the friggin' Bible". Though "friggin'" is something much more vulgar in the actual saying, but anyway.... That's all the advice I've got.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

doorknobofakender — Wed, 12 Oct 2011 02:33:24 -0500

Don't let the world building trap you and don't let the canon trap you. Remember to keep the personalities true to the characters because that is what counts in any fiction I've seen. And if you try to go OOC for a canon character, make sure that it makes sense to your world. One of my favorite crack stories has a gutter-talking Sephiroth and a hyper very gay Cloud. It works even if they are not like that in the original story because the world they were put in works.

Rekoa Meton — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 18:40:44 -0500

I vote for blown-up Tokyo, for what that matters. I do have some curiosity in seeing what kind of fanfic was created during NaNo. It must take an iron strength for not to go completely out of the rails, and the strength of an alien material of some sort not to go AU.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Unoriginality — Sun, 16 Oct 2011 17:39:11 -0500

Blow up Tokyo! :Ahem: I've done fanfiction every year I've done NaNo, because I'm a hobbyist and not a dedicated writer, and I tend to dislike my OCs. It can be challenging, depending on where you're going. One year, I wrote an FMA AU where Al was never sealed in the armor. I had more freedom to stretch out because of how vastly different everything was. The next year, I wrote a post-series FMA story where Ed outlines 12 years of living in a premature Nazi Germany. (The Nazis got ahold of 'magic' through opening the Gate and took over in 192... 6? 7? Basically, the Pustch didn't fail as much as it had in real life, so they took over sooner, and Ed was a British spy, so he was entangled in everything going on.) That fic was challenging for the research it took, but again, I wasn't too terribly constrained by canon. This year, however, I don't even know what the hell I'm doing. I picked up a political mess and poked it with a stick. :(

Jason Todd! One of the most under-loved characters, I definitely wish he got better press and more fans! I'm definitely writing something Bat-related... Not sure WHAT, but definitely Bat-related! I'm torn between two crossover AU ideas at the moment, placing Batman characters in other universes (either Puella Magi Madoka Magica or World of Darkness, specifically Changeling: The Lost), but either way most of the focus is definitely going to be on the Rogues Gallery, because villains need love too! ;) (Love, she says, as she plots stories that will put her favorite characters through the emotional wringer...)

As an avid fan of KotOR I totally vote for that. XD It's up to you, of course, but that was one of my favorite areas to write fanfiction for, and I'm probably going to get back into it post-NaNo. :D

immortalwitchy — Wed, 12 Oct 2011 20:39:46 -0500

thx... well seein as all my dreams are first person.. i'm tryin to do the fic from my MFC POV... and she's a 4500+ immortal witch who rode w/ the four horsemen (Methos, Silas, Caspian and Kronos) she went by the name of venegeance and was death's right hand woman and his lover. i have a lot of OC chars as well.. some slash (Well yea seeing as TW is mentions.. that means i have Janto... i refuse to have CoE as part of my uni) for Atlantis.. i am a diehard Shep/Dex slasher (so they're slashed) last year i did something similar but ended the immortal game and had two less shows... didnt have charmed or TB mentioned.. seein as i just got addicted to TB over the summer and had to order HBO from my cable provider. i m goin w/ an AU.. and i think that Eric/Sookie are a lot better match then Sookie/Bill. so far what im thinkin for the enemies are at the time FoTS and others as well.. (that means im gonna be doin a lot of killing of them.. i may let Sara live, kill the hubby ect) i know what happens in S4 so whatever i do will be goin either AU from the start or who knows... dunno is i'll have baby vampy Jessica or not in there.. havent thought that far ahead.)

KotOR!?! Awesome! Can I ask what it's about? I know you said it's only loosely based on the games, but out of curiosity are you planning on going canon or non-canon? Basically, I mean are you rolling with male Revan and/or female Exile or Female Revan and Male Exile or something totally different. Just curious becasue I always write about a female Revan, lol. And now I really want to play KotOR again. XD

NaNo forum, Y U kill my post. ;_; I wanted to write a Glee fanfic for NaNoWriMo this year, but my Notebook of Ideas and Characters was somehow forgotten in my move to college. It's hard to write when all the info I've gathered is TWO STATES OVER. It wasn't going to really involve the main characters of Glee, though. It was going to be about the tech crew that is responsible for all the lighting/sound/etc. stuff. It was going to involve the rival tech crews of Vocal Adrenaline and The Warblers and...I'm rambling. Sorry, that plot bunny likes to steal my brain and run away with it. >_> ...Anyway, I've never read There's No Place Like Here, but it sounds really interesting. I'd love to see how New Directions acts in a fantasy environment. Good luck! :D

DO THE HARMONY HARMONY FOREVER And if you do decide to do it, NaNoMail me. I'd like being buddies. :D For me, I'm writing a Warriors fanfiction this year. I've only ever written a few Harry Potter oneshots, so I don't know how a long story will go. I've gotten ideas for long stories, but I pop around a lot with plot bunnies. Last year was an attempt at original fiction, that failed. One thing I love about the Warriors books, is that there's so much freedom. There's like, 30 years between the beginning of the clans and the start of the books, and who knows how much time afterwards? So you can stick your story in anywhere and it could be plausible, most likely. You can make up totally new characters, too. :D

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

JupitersGrin — Wed, 12 Oct 2011 14:11:36 -0500

Heh. My pair ISN'T canon (Harry/Luna), though I do like reading some Harry/Hermione as well. If you can do it without the usual Weasley bashing (realizing that they're not meant for each other and fight all the time is one thing, Ron The Death Eater and Ginny The Turboslut are entirely another), I'll read it very, very gladly - it's hard to find good HHr fic that doesn't immediately put me off with the other characters being all OOC. So yes: tentatively following your work in hopes I'll like it. And don't worry about people urging you not to write fanfic. Write what you want to write. Heck, ignore me entirely and write whatever you want to write, regardless of others opinions. You'll have more fun that way.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

i_love_nutmeg — Sat, 15 Oct 2011 17:35:41 -0500

I'm pretty interested in the fact that you're doing fanfiction because it's your first time. I never thought of it helping that way, but it makes sense. H/Hr is always a safe choice. The hard part is doing it well and meshing their personalities (which are both very strong and developed in canon, so it will be harder to work with). I wish you the best of luck!

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

heatherbee — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 21:11:42 -0500

KLAINE! Is about right. :) I've made it so that reading There's No Place Like Here isn't necessary. I figure a lot of people won't have read it, so I'm going through all the world-building in the novel. I couldn't stop myself from clarifying and expanding some parts of the world while I was at it. I'm actually thinking of changing the setting to a different town than the one where the book took place as well because I've changed an awful lot already. Your idea sounds really cool. I normally don't read fics with a lot of OCs, but I'd make an exception for something like that. I think a lot of people would. I was part of stage crew for my school's show choir, and we had as much of a bond as New Directions. A rivalry would be fun to read about! Stage crew has so many awesome options for spying and sabotage. I don't suppose you have a fall break coming up when you could go two states over and get your notebooks?

Ooh, I know a couple people on the Gaia forums that are rewrtiing Twilight by doing just the same thing since there is an interesting story there. Unfortunately it had been buried by some very bad character leads. Belle's voice alone killed me trying to read it before I went to read Mark Reads Twilight.

Yes! Digimon! I attempted to write a full-length Digimon fic last year, but couldn't quite get it off the ground so I switched to HP. I still write one shots for it though. XD I used to love to write sibling fics (no incest) for both TK and Matt and Tai and Kari. They're just so much fun to write.

*adds another to her "hope to read" list* I am also a fan of memory-less Light. Actually, I just like Light in general (though I have a definite soft spot for memory-less Light hahaha)--it's fascinating how many different ways his character can go and he still stays Light.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Petty-Force — Sun, 16 Oct 2011 00:25:29 -0500

Death Note buddy! I'm writing something after the series' events, though, because I'm scared of writing canon characters. (Though I will have to write Near and his entourage... gotta look into those people.)

I wish you the best of luck =)

Either Marauder Era Harry Potter fan-fiction, or taking the Marauders and plonking them into the modern world. I haven't decided yet. But I'm not planning on killing anyone because the mere thought makes me sad D: No guy on guy though. I'm not into writing that really. Not against it at all, it's just not what I like to read or write. Now whether I dip into girl on girl to boost the word count is a completely different story, because my FOC is a massive flirt and finds Miss Evans very attractive. Ahem. ~Ken-Ren

No WAY! aldjsdkjkf;;!! *flail* 8D YAY! (Please excuse my geeking out, I did NOT EXPECT THIS!) It's an alternate season four, because I want to. Everybody's in it, it's got games and an ending and everything! I'm really excited about it because it's totally finally coming together. I haven't exactly been planning for an entire eight years; the current version got started a couple of weeks ago, and there was a lot of sitting on the shelf gathering dust before that. I'm having a bit of trouble keeping all the characters busy, though, because it's been so long since I wrote for a cast of more than five. My official strategy this year is "when stuck, drop a game cube!"

I know how hard it is in a big project like NaNo to keep track of all those damn Mainframers, but it's totally, immensely gratifying when it all ties together and the various plots/characters finally make sense in the big picture. Which could be said of any writing project. I like your strategy though. Versatile things, Game Cubes...

I'm not writing WWE Fan Fiction (should that be WWE Universe Fiction?), but my book seems like it's inspired by Big Apple Takedown. I say that after never even reading the book! I have read Journey Into Darkness though. One of my main characters wears a Blue Demon mask, so wrestling has a little influence on the book.

The core of my story is, obviously, about how he went from weird kid to Death Eater. I think I'll be alright handling his relationship with Lily and being an outcast. What I'm worried about is how he's accepted into the Junior Death Eaters Club. I have an idea, but it's not nearly detailed enough yet. As much as I love YA (reading one now), I am totally biased toward HP fanfic, so I vote for that one. It'd be great to be able to bounce Marauder's era ideas off someone!

Just out of curiosity, are you thinking of Myka and Helena as friends or in a pairing? Not that it makes a huge difference to me in the long run. I am SO addicted to Warehouse 13, although unfortunately I haven't seen ER... but I might beg to read your fic anyway if it's got enough "screen time" for my favorite gals. (; (Concerning Christina, my instinct is to say go with what works better for you, since both have evidence in canon.)

I'm still not sure on the details of the Farscape part yet. I'd like to do it post PKW but I'm open to any idea that my brain cooks up at this point. lol. As for the X Files part, I am thinking definitely during the series, some alien event that brings Mulder & Scully to investigate where they cross paths with The Doctor, that kind of thing.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

southoffebruary — Wed, 12 Oct 2011 21:47:15 -0500

I shipped Cam/Vala too! lol. I think I was projecting a little from my Farscape fangirling, but it was impossible not to when Ben & Claudia have such great chemistry. I actually shipped Cam/Sam a little too (which I know is probably a crime for the Sam/O'Neill fans). I completely forgot about GateWorld, thanks! That will help give me a refresher on the series.

I never thought of doing a fanfic for the movie until two years ago! But you're right, the possibilities in that fandom seem endless. I'm really excited about this year's--it'll be AU, probably, something I've recently fallen in love with there. And thanks! Good luck to you, as well!

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

DanieXJ — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 10:10:42 -0500

I'm going with a pairing. The thing that got me (even though I've only seen partial clips, not the whole epi) is the episode when HG is trying to blow up the world with a fork or whatever, and Myka sorta saves the world by putting HG's gun or whatever to her own head and telling her to kill her first or something like that. Even the first time I saw the scene, when it was in a vid set to music and so had no words I could hear and still their pairing just yelled at me. Ah, plus, I have to say, I just love, love, love the idea of HG as a woman instead of a man too... totally left field (and while I would love to see HG on Warehouse 13 more in Season 4, I have to say that it would be totally awesome if they did a steampunk-ish spin off, as long as it had Jamie Murray as HG still...) Oh, it will have enough 'screen time' since there are four main characters. Myka, HG, and two from ER, Kim Legaspi and Kerry Weaver. For my fanfic I usually do femslash stuff, although, this one is going to have some of a couple of non-femslash relationships in it too). And I'll probably wind up posting it, (as I have my others) on Fanfiction.net. Used to have a webpage to do it on, but yikes it's so much faster on fanfic.net....

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Paris and the Blue Jewel — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 14:09:14 -0500

You'll have to let me know when it's up so I can alert it. xD Myka/HG is totally my OTP for Warehouse. And I'm okay reading any sexuality, although het squicks me out a bit if it gets too explicit, haha. I might also add you as a writing buddy when that becomes an option, if you want. (:

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

DanieXJ — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 16:16:18 -0500

Sure about telling you when it's up and buddies if we get that option at some point (I would really love to see the 'winnowing down the message boards you can see' feature back too, guess we'll see about that one), not sure if it'll be up halfway through November, or if I'll finish it (I hope) and post it in Dec. There'll be some het in it, but not a whole lot (gotta get BONC in there, I haven't written BONC since my very first and totally unpublishable Star Trek fics from middle school... :)) And, wait, Myka/HG isn't the only OTP for Warehouse.... Heh.... :)

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

writeswithafist — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 15:16:55 -0500

I saw "1930s" "spaceship" and "Kansas" and immediately thought "Wizard of Oz IN SPACE" and you might have just inadvertently given me an idea for next year. :) That's a neat modern spin on Superman. I wouldn't worry about following canon, though. In a series this massive, trying to would only short out your brain.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

DanieXJ — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 15:02:49 -0500

You totally can. Although, do you mean two 25,000 word stories, or two 50,000 word stories? There are even people who do more than two stories, 150,000 words, or even more.... yikes...

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Paris and the Blue Jewel — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 15:24:02 -0500

I'd totally read that fanfic. xD I think writing two 25k-word stories would qualify as being a rebel, but two 50k ones is something that's done not infrequently.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Lol that is an awesome Idea, would like to read it if you finish it :D

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

DanieXJ — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 16:20:45 -0500

Oh.... uh, following all the canons at once is supposed to short out your brain. Oh. I sometimes find it fun to try and do that with stuff like Superman/Smallville/Lois and Clark etc. or the Star Treks or Stargates, or whatever... Or, even more fun, trying to do it with say, the ABC soaps (or former ABC soaps) Of course, I also like taking two totally different shows, Guiding Light and Grey's Anatomy, or Buffy and SG-1, or Blood Ties and Star Trek Voyager, and trying to work them together in a way that is semi-plausible, so, I think I'm a lost case.... :)

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Paris and the Blue Jewel — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 17:57:37 -0500

Technically speaking, you can only have one OTP since it means "One True Pairing." xD But I'm flexible. And by explicit I mean like... graphic sex, so depending on how frequently your writing is M-rated it may or may not be an issue. =P But at any rate, if I like a fic enough, I just skip over the squicky scenes. xD

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

writeswithafist — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 18:55:12 -0500

Heh, I meant no offense. I just figured there's probably a lot of it and the thought of trying to cram all of it in a couple of weeks is making me flash back to some of my college finals. :)

dragonKhorse — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 08:22:31 -0500

I haven't really decided yet. I'm heading for an Evangelion fic, but since I'm going for an Evangelion AU, I'm just gonna throw in some other stuff, like a Mikado/Kida ship, because hnngh, it's MikadoXKida! Depending on my luck, this'll either turn into a weird Evangelion/DRRR!! crossover, or just a mega-crossover like what my genre title said. I'm hoping they won't go too OOC on me.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

DanieXJ — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 18:38:53 -0500

Hmm.... I think that skynet may have overtaken my brain for that last sentence. 'cause, I do know that you can only have OTP per show. Hmm.... now I wonder what I meant by that.... Huh. And I tend to always make mine M rated. Not 'cause of sex, but sometimes my characters swear and sometimes I go into not happy plots (hey, I watch Criminal Minds, I can totally go dark). Plus, I generally feel as though I should err on the side of cautiousness on fanfic.net. Rather have my stories over rated as M, than deleted for using T or whatever.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Paris and the Blue Jewel — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 20:51:39 -0500

Oh, well, that's all right then. I love dark!fic. (Muahaha.) And I totally understand about over-rating on ff.net... you have to be careful with them. That's why I always double-post at AO3 (Archive of Our Own) - you can never really have your story up in too many places, in case something gets deleted.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

DanieXJ — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 20:46:20 -0500

No offense was taken. After all..... dude.... Reboot!! Ah, a TV show from my youth. So, have you gotten the whole 'Mainframe' edition or whatever of the series?? And, I think that figuring out how to fit all the Superman mythos canon together would probably be considered research, in my case at least... :)

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Aerdysias — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 05:32:26 -0500

Awesomeness! I'll be happy to be your buddy when its back up :D, so happy to not be the only one doing Fan Fiction for Thor. And thank you! I found it somewhere surfing through Loki fanart xD As for your icon I have to say to you, from the words of Loki himself... "Nice... feathers." ~.o

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

writeswithafist — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 23:06:43 -0500

ReBoot makes everything better (it's certainly making my NaNo experience more fun than the last couple years!). I just bought the box set last month. It is so very shiny. :) And while we're ogling one anothers' icons, I like the Myka/HG thing you've got going there. A TV show from my now!

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

DanieXJ — Sun, 16 Oct 2011 17:44:18 -0500

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Tikatu — Sat, 22 Oct 2011 17:55:02 -0500

I am seriously considering your route! I have two WIPs way overdue for updates, my fanfic from 2007 that I picked up again during Camp NaNoWriMo's August session, and my original NaNo novel from 2010. I would so love to finish at least the fanfic from 2007. However, I also have two other fanfiction ideas simmering in my head, and it would be cool to work on one of those, too. So I'm still on the fence about being a rebel.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

BlueVoltorb — Sun, 23 Oct 2011 10:41:09 -0500

Pokémon Black/White had a brilliant storyline, I'd be interested to see where you'd take them further. And I echo General Seiyaryu in that N was a really interesting character - I'd like to find out more about him =]

I'll keep that in mind. I warn you though, they are joined by a rather rotund 40-something bent on raising Hell. (Me.) The fan-on grows from an annual USENET Challenge fan-fiction event where the person running it puts up challenges, the author puts up teams of three (well, four -- the author is part of the team), and tries to solve the challenge.

"You don't really want to start that again, do you, cow?" <3 Man. Those deleted scenes. I don't know why they were deleted but they did not need to be. They made everyone's characterisation so much fuller and they made the plot make so much more sense.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Elfflame — Sun, 16 Oct 2011 18:32:02 -0500

I found the first time I did Nano that doing fanfic was a great way to start, because there's less worldbuilding involved. Albus's schoolyears sounds like a great idea! Have you made a "cast list" yet? That's where I'd advise you to start. And then go through how Albus feels about/interacts with them. That way you should be able to get both a main plot and some sub-plots going. :) Good luck!

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

shuriken7 — Thu, 27 Oct 2011 11:57:32 -0500

That sounds like a cute idea. I'm trying out fanfic this year (it's my first year too) just to see if I can produce that large of a story and it'll be easier to do it with characters I already play with.

Are there any specific Bat-characters you'd be focusing in on, or would it be the Batfamily as of ...pre-reboot as a whole? :0 If you go with the idea, of course...being on the rim of possibly burning out.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Aerdysias — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 18:27:32 -0500

Epic trailer, epic people, Uber Epic Villian. >:) As for your Nano go with your gut, and the thing you feel you are most passionate about to get you through the month.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Aerdysias — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 18:20:32 -0500

Actually you could continue writing it, just exclude the word count you had done before Nano. :) You have to share yours fellow Loki Lover! I want to reeeeaaaad it :D

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

HourglassThorne — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 21:52:57 -0500

It would be a focus on the Batfamily as a whole, but told from Dick Grayson's perspective. The story would be from when he first becomes Robin all the way to when he finally becomes Nightwing. There is the possibility of being burned out by the end of November on writing Batman... but if it means that I'll be able to write my version of what a "reboot" ought to have been, and if even one reader appreciates my vision more than the drivel being shoveled to fans by men like Dan Didio, then it would be so worth it.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

MissAngelAdorer — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 20:13:39 -0500

Thanks, will do. But I should figure it out; I've still got two weeks. Oh, and I hope you post your story online. It sounds awesome, even though I didn't see the Thor movie and don't know much about Loki (mythology or Marvel's).

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Aerdysias — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 22:31:22 -0500

I agree, I personally think it also made Loki more likeable... which may have been the reason they cut it, because in truth he's not meant to be, but seeing the brothers mingle and joke together was really cool.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Aerdysias — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 22:36:37 -0500

I have a bit of backstory (well more than a bit) for both Loki's, so even if nobody saw the movie, there will be explanations of things to hopefully keep people in the loop. If you don't know much about the mythology that would be for the better, because one of them has a fairly wonky history and travels far from the norm of their mythology. Should be fun, hope when its written people still like it xD I wish you well on your venture, that's the nice thing about this place and this month especially, you can fill in what you don't have and ask others for what you still need. I've had some amazingly helpful ideas just from prompts and unrelated conversations. Very strange indeed :D, you should buddy me when the buddy system goes back up!

I've been thinking about this idea for a long time, and decided that I should finally try to write it and get it down on paper instead of just hiding it away in my head.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Aerdysias — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 22:40:18 -0500

In my honest opinion, Book 7 doesn't exist. I'm still waiting on a day when JK Rowling comes to her senses and realizes what she did with it was crap, and that she'd make more money re-writing it and not being such a pansy twat with it. So in my mind Snape and all the others still live, because they are waiting for a better story (or writer) to make something that is good and sticks.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

i_love_nutmeg — Sat, 15 Oct 2011 17:31:11 -0500

Book seven definately didn't happen. I wanted to retch when I read it. Book six didn't happen either. Those two were too much plot/action and not enough characterization. I very much approve of a Severus-centric fanfic, as that is the only type I write...a bit obsessive on this end. I hope it turns out well for you! Perhaps I'll even run across it one day.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

J.Rudder — Fri, 21 Oct 2011 00:43:30 -0500

This will be my first year writing fanfic & I am not planning any canon chars either. I'm writing based on Kolchak: The Night Stalker (orig 70s series), but it's focusing on his dau currently. I may add in one of his immortal foes & possibly add a story line that involves Carl, but who knows. Anyhoo, all that just to say I'm not sure if mine 100% counts as fanfic either.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Unoriginality — Sun, 16 Oct 2011 17:18:20 -0500

Oh, sure. ^_^ I'm basing it off the mangas, which state that A) Link was born to a noble house, who served the king as a knight and that B) Link's father died during a battle to unify Hyrule. So I can assume that Zelda's father is the one that unified Hyrule. Which means all these political alliances are new, shaky and prone to backstabbing. Gannondorf, of course, dabbles in the politics, trying undo the unification so he can march in and take over, since Link has taken off with the Ocarina of Time and the Triforce is out of his reach until Link comes back. Which he does, seventeen years later, to find that Hyrule's on the brink of civil war again. :D

Well, thank you! *blushes a bit* I always been fascinated with the story Kairi's grandmother told her. If children really did save the worlds, then I thought it would be interesting in an enemy tried to destroy the worlds with children. And once the Doctor said, "A child is not a weapon!", then he elbowed his way into the plot rather easily. *lol*

JQ: TRA was my first fandom and, much like a first love, you never really give it up! I really didn't want to miss NaNo this year. Last year I had such a blast with it and actually won. So, I figured I would use it for a different reason and still get some good writing done. I just need to get motivated. Hopefully I'll figure out how come Tuesday!

Kates_Nano — Sun, 16 Oct 2011 15:43:56 -0500

I was planning to go with DSF Exile from Kavar's point of view, starting pre KOTOR when she informally trained under him. I thought it might be rather interesting to write about the Exile's descent into darkness from the point of view of someone like Kavar. However, lately I've also been hounded by the idea of writing a fanfic about what happened after Revan went beyond the Outer Rim. Oh well, I might still do both of them. I've got a feeling neither of those plots will turn out to be long enough to reach 50K, and since I'm already rebelling a bit anyway ... And yes, I prefer female Revan to canon male Revan as well. :P They're some great games, aren't they?

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Amaritage — Sun, 16 Oct 2011 14:55:34 -0500

Yes they are though I am only really good ad T.K. and Matt because I role played them with a group of friends for about six years x_x. As for everyone else I'm trying to keep them in cannon while not really worrying about it to much. I'm just glad to see that most of the Digimon FanFiction writers have stopped with the Davis bashing because some of it was just getting ridiculous >.>

~~ i-love-nutmeg wrote ~~ Book seven definately didn't happen. I wanted to retch when I read it. Book six didn't happen either. Those two were too much plot/action and not enough characterization. ~~~ Oh book 7 happened, but the version we received was written by Rita Skeeter. LOL I like Seveus-centric fanfic too. And I feel that the whole Shrieking Shack scene in book 7 was a legillimens projection by SS to cover his disappearance. I hope you post your NANO story somewhere we can read it.

I love Sailor Moon! Other than the tiny Ranma 1/2 and Sailor Moon crossover (no, it's not a fuku fic) I wrote, I haven't actually written any Sailor Moon fic (considering the only other idea I had was ten years ago (another one of those original senshi ones), that's probably a good thing. What'll your fic be about?

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

thecapillary — Wed, 02 Nov 2011 23:00:28 -0500

Yes! Also doing Sailor Moon fan fiction! I'm featuring Naru as well, so that's totally exciting. We'll have to get in touch.

So many people mentioning Madoka Magica/considering writing fanfiction for it this year! :D I definitely cast my vote for that -- I haven't heard of Radiant Historia, but unknown canons could ALWAYS use more love.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

samhinrichs678 — Mon, 17 Oct 2011 02:23:23 -0500

I'm not working on it for NaNo (Founder's won out as of.... 5 hours ago) but I'm working on a massive AU trilogy that spans from MWPPs first year through the end of the second war. Yup. Except it's only half AU as all of canon happens. If I ever get that far, the second fic covers from Halloween 1981 to Dumbledore's death in 1997... all from Snape's POV. Honestly, I'm dreading it. But I have to get from 1972 - 1981 first. James is so much easier to write... I wish you luck!

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Lalatin — Wed, 19 Oct 2011 00:09:38 -0500

Hahaha Either way I'll be writing the Harry Potter one next month too. So we can still bounce ideas off each other! :D When it comes to the marauders time I just really need to get a full timeline of what we KNOW happened and when. :/ That might be the hard part, besides capturing Snape's way of speech.

Reavien — Sun, 16 Oct 2011 12:52:24 -0500

Seriously! I won't lie, I have NO IDEA what those other universes are. >xD;; And YES. Villains need their own form of love and...attention and all that fluffy jazz (sure). And emotional wringer is the best way for an author to show s/he cares... of course, it's also signing your death certificate, should any of the characters find you. .... *shifty eyes* ...but I digress.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

hookedononyx — Sun, 16 Oct 2011 10:35:53 -0500

Holy hell, that first idea sounds fantastic! The idea of any of Batman's cast (particularly their TAS incarnations) thrown into Madoka Magica's setting is really fascinating. I hope it turns out well! I feel bad for not knowing what Changeling: The Lost is, but then, no one has heard of Radiant Historia, either.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

moonmomma — Sun, 16 Oct 2011 18:46:31 -0500

I write Nephrite/Naru(Molly) fanfic because they should have gotten a happier ending than they got. Here's my synopsis: "Crystal Tokyo is a utopia of peace, happiness, and plenty. But even Paradise has its misfits. One of these is Umino Naru. Judged to be insane, and clinging to heartbreaking memories of those she's loved and lost, she chooses confinement with others who have refused the peace through purification offered by Neo-Queen Serenity. But in the place that was supposed to provide security for the unpurified, and ensure the safety of Crystal Tokyo, evil begins to take hold. And, as happened so often in the past, it's drawn towards Naru's energy and love. She tries to warn someone of what's happening, but as one of the insane and unpurified, who will listen to her?" Also, Nephrite and the other Dark Kingdom Generals are brought back to life to be King Endymion's Guardians, but they get purified from their old evil memories, so Nephrite doesn't remember Naru anymore. Angst ensues :D

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

poi_son_joy — Mon, 17 Oct 2011 08:27:16 -0500

Thank you! I hope it does too. :> I'm GOING to write for it, even if I don't do it for NaNo, and the bits I've already figured out about it have me kind of stoked! I have a vague timeline for the first... probably half of the story planned out, but it's so bare-bones. :P Don't worry, I wouldn't expect anyone who's not a tabletop roleplayer (and not only that, but familiar with the White Wolf line!) to know about Changeling. It's not one of the most-known of the World of Darkness lines; it basically boils down to exactly as described above, only with character sheets and dice. XD I've always thought it was a really neat idea, though.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

poi_son_joy — Mon, 17 Oct 2011 08:17:21 -0500

Well, Madoka Magica is an anime that's pretty much a deconstruction of the magical girl genre (making everything darker, sadder, more dangerous, and more emotionally traumatizing), and Changeling is a tabletop game that deals with characters that have been warped into something other than human due to being abducted and owned by monstrous True Fae. Writing a story based on the first would, surprisingly, involve a lot more character death and be much more hopeless-feeling than the second. :|a I do know, though, that if I go with Madoka Magica AU I'm going to get to play around some with Jason Todd, myself, and that DOES seem like a lot of fun. Trying to get him to go from Robin to the Red Hood in personality is pretty neat when events don't play out the same... Good to see I'm not the only one who thinks doing terrible things to characters is the best sign of love there is. ;)

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

ZoraSkywalker — Sun, 16 Oct 2011 18:04:09 -0500

Haha, I know what you mean! I wasn't really a fan of Davis, but I didn't dislike him either. His character just didn't interest me quite as much as some of the other characters did. So many people got way into it though and took it way too far with the Davis bashing. I kinda felt sorry for him. Sora, TK, and Matt are probably the easiest for me to write, overall. Matt and TK were the ones I probably wrote the most about and Sora I just related to the most growing up. Oh, and I wasn't too bad at writing about Kouji and Kouichi from Frontier, but I haven't written about them in ages. Yeah, if they don't sound completely cannon now, you can wait until editing. to fix them, plus since they're secondary characters it doesn't have to be quite as important if they're only in it here and there.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

ZoraSkywalker — Sun, 16 Oct 2011 17:54:36 -0500

Oh that sounds awesome! I'd definitely love to read it if you post it anywhere! I really like the Revan one too, it's always been one I've been curious about. I really wish TOR had actually been KotOR3 so we could find out what happened. I heard Drew Karpyshyn is writing one about what happens after Revan returns from the Outer Rim, but since he has to write canon, it'll be male Revan. :/ Glad to know I'm not the only one who prefers female Revan, lol. Male Revan was too cliche, IMO, and having a female Sith Lord would have been so much more interesting. Plus, the romance subplot was so much better with Carth than Bastila -- she was kind of obnoxious. XD Yeah, they're definitely some of my favorite games. :D

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Amaritage — Mon, 17 Oct 2011 14:53:53 -0500

I know Davis to me was to much of a Tai clone to actually like him, but I could never understand why they always picked on him. Granted it was mainly Takari fans that did it which is weird to begin with because Kari never showed interest in him. Of course I'm not really a Takari fan so maybe I just don't see it the same way they did? I do however agree that he is the one to state the obvious when no one else is willing and I use it for that quite frequently. I need to learn to write Sora better xD. Her and Matt happen to be my favorite cannon couple and my sister who I am forcing on a promise to read my FanFiction is a big Sora fan so I have to throw her in for her. Funny thing is she doesn't like the fact that Sora and Matt got together, but she wouldn't have been happy if Sora and Tai got together either xD. I haven't seen Frontier yet it's like the only one I haven't seen yet (can't get around the fact they have no real Digimon partners), but I will. It must be nice to be able to write more then two characters in cannon xD. Yes, editing is my friend big time when it comes to that and it is nice that you don't have to worry so much because they are secondary characters... The thing is I always feel so bad when I don't have them show up more xD

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Melinda Milos — Mon, 17 Oct 2011 09:52:11 -0500

Thanks. :) Yes, I have a cast list. It was the first thing I started doing after I started getting ideas. I like to plan things out well, so I know what I'm doing. I've been shaping the plot over the past few days, and I now have no concerns about it being too short. XD It may even end up going over 50, 000 words. :D I need to plot the pacing a little better, though...

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

dusk_nightshade — Sun, 16 Oct 2011 21:29:50 -0500

I need notifications! I can't remember all the threads I need to stalk. :P Okay, I need to read this--the Dark Kingdom Generals were always my favourite villains, and they totally got shafted. Also, Nephrite/Naru is a nice bonus. And I'm a fan of stories where things in Crystal Tokyo aren't as perfect as they seem to be... :D

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Michael S. Repton — Tue, 18 Oct 2011 12:42:53 -0500

Sounds awesome. Nephrite/Naru was my first pairing and my gateway into the world of fanfiction. I still have a N/N story that I'm working on slowly in between other projects. I'm not doing fanfic for nano this year though.... in fact my reason for deciding to participate in nano was to give myself a break from writing fanfic. Good luck with yours; I'd love to read it!

Hi, fellow Zelda writer! :D The same - it's a sequel to The Sky Above, The Field Below (linked above, I did it for my 2009 one) - it basically focused on Sheik's story (as a seperate character) and was kind of. Dark. This'd combine the follow-up stuff in the adult timeline without Link, and a bit of MM-esque worldhopping. I saw the description for your novel, and it looks really neat - once they're re-established, want to be writing buddies?

Yeah that story always interested me as well and children do seem to be the strongest people in the game series (Not counting the FF characters of course). I can also really see the Doctor somehow appearing in the Kingdom Hearts world and yes I can see why him saying that would make him elbow his way into your plot xD. I would really love to read it when your done with it ^_^

Woah, Glee fanfiction? Cool! (Even though I'm more of a Will/Emma fan). This November's gonna be pretty awesome -- Nanowrimo, Glee season 3 episode 4 (yes!! Finally!! Why was there even a break after the third episode?), Pottermore, exams... Whoops, maybe not the last one!

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Another Glee fanficer! There are a couple of us over on the first page too, if you're looking for some company in that department. Although we're currently obsessing over Klaine, and that might not be your thing. I never really got too into the adult characters. I'm hoping for some engaging storylines (like what we saw in Episode 3) to draw me in this year. Good luck on your novel!

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

samhinrichs678 — Mon, 17 Oct 2011 22:01:30 -0500

I hope so. I think I'm going to cheat a little and get the prologue done early since it's present day... well a few years in the future actually. That's not the part I keep mentally writing though... naturally. No Godric you're dead right now! You can't tickle the damn dragon yet!!

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

hookedononyx — Mon, 17 Oct 2011 20:58:55 -0500

Ah, tabletop RPGs. I've had a long-running interest in trying one, but every group I've come across either collapsed before starting, or had been running for so long that they had no interest in new players. Le sigh! In any case, I should look up World of Darkness on TVtropes. I'm fairly certain that I've heard of White Wolf, which is odd, because I know nothing about it.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Elfflame — Sat, 29 Oct 2011 01:36:43 -0500

for plot and pacing, what I did a few years ago for a H/D AU I did was list a bunch of sub-plots along with the major plot of my story, and tried to do at least two or three different plot threads in each section (about 1000-5000 words), that way the full focus isn't always on the main plot, but still keeps it moving forward.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

ZoraSkywalker — Wed, 19 Oct 2011 23:00:53 -0500

Yeah, that was my problem with Davis, he was just too much like Tai. Yeah, and the Takari fans could be insane -- especially with Daikari fans. I definitely saw way too many shipper wars over that. I'm sort of a Takari fan, but I'm not real big into it, overall, probably because when it comes to Digimon anyway, I don't read or write a lot of stories with pairings. I mean, I enjoy both Taiora and Sorato, and while I tend to like Taiora just a tiny bit more (particularly if it's about the first season), I've never really cared much either way. I like both. XD I'm surprised your sister doesn't like either though. XD So are you going to make it so she isn't paired with anyone for your sister, or are you going to write about her with Matt? Well, at least you can write about one of the digimon. XD That was the mistake I made last year, trying to write a full-length novel set in the digital world when I had no idea how to write any of the digimon. At all. I think the one I pulled off best was Gomamon, but that's about it, lol. And Mimi and Joe tend to be next to impossible for me to get in character. I think I spent more time on the Digimon Wiki trying to figure out the digimon than I actually did writing the story until I finally switched over to another fandom. Its been awhile since I've seen Frontier, but I actually really liked it. The fact that they didn't have Digimon partners, while really weird at first, actually wound up being kinda cool because it upped the stakes a little. They weren't having someone fight for them, but were having to do all the work themselves, so there was a little more at risk for them. I mean, in the other seasons the Digidestined did get into trouble a lot, but usually their digimon could come into save them, the Frontier cast only had each other. If I remember right, it starts out kinda slow, because they go on this long side trip where they have to find their spirits -- kinda like how in 02 they all had to find their digieggs and everything, but after they all find all their spirits, the plot starts to pic up and get more interesting. I really need to rewatch both Frontier and Tamers sometime -- I think I've only seen Tamers once way back in, but I remember liking it. I haven't seen Savers or Xros Wars yet. Have you? Yeah, I hate that feeling when you want to put a character into a story more, but don't know how to write them well. Sometimes it helps to force yourself to write them (*sometimes*, lol). Reno from Final Fanasy VII didn't interest me much until I was working on a story where I had to write him, then once I got inside his head, he suddenly became one of my favorites. XD

I actually flat out refuse to write Glee... I have story ideas... no plots (figures)... but I know that I wouldn't be able to do any of the characters justice. So I'm avoiding it for as long as possible. Probably not the best solution, but there you have it. In the mean time I'll just scream at RIB and hope we get more to the Blaine transfer story-line than "I missed you" *eyeroll*

Weirdly enough, it's kind of the same for me. I've played DnD twice, a few homebrewed systems one-on-one, and a couple friends say they're PLANNING on running games but both seem to have fallen through. I'm just kind of weird and collect sourcebooks for a bunch of different tabletop games and read them/make character sheets for fun. White Wolf is kind of a weird case; I think I'd heard of it before ever really hearing ABOUT it, too! Mostly I'd already heard of Vampire: the Masquerade, because it's also a video game, and I'd seen people talking about it before. Vampire, Werewolf, and Mage are probably their best-known/most popular lines (and also the ones that catch my interest the least, ha, go figure!).

Dude, I'm pretty darn sure that I would spontaneously combust if my mom even got close to reading my fanfic.... :D Now, one of these days I'm hoping that she's reading a nice novel with my name on the front, a nice dedication to her and my dad or rest of family or whatever and my signature inside, but uh... nope, she better stay away from my fanfic... :D

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

The Create Card — Tue, 18 Oct 2011 16:13:59 -0500

Squee! Fellow Klaine fans!!!! I haven't written anything Glee yet, I feel the same way about doing the characters justice, I read a fic once, it was Faberry I think, but every single character sounded EXACTLY like themselves, so much so that I was internally reading the dialouge in their voices...so yeah, I know that I am not able to do that! I absolutely adore reading the fanfiction though! Ah, this is too exciting!

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

samhinrichs678 — Mon, 17 Oct 2011 23:33:51 -0500

Honestly? I haven't touched it since last November... I'm only to 1972 or so... At some point I'm just going to have to sit down and force myself to NaNo-style it all the way through or it'll never get done... but the editing. The part I wrote for 2009 covers first year... all 54k. But it's literally 5 or 6 massive scenes that (the extent of my limited planning if I do any more then that I lose interest completely) and sentences like:[quote] "The rest of the term passed swiftly and before James knew it he was getting on the train to go home for Christmas. {two page dinner party} The rest of break and the beginning of the new year passed if possible even quicker and the next thing James knew he was discovering that one of his best friends is, in fact, a werewolf."[/quote] Seriously. Most of my editing is adding more scenes... And nobody wants to read it so.....

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

FranciePants — Tue, 01 Nov 2011 01:08:38 -0500

That actually makes me feel better because I have no idea how I'm going to get seven years into 50k words. Even if I condense boring days, the significant scenes are going to take up so much space. But I guess that's a good thing for my NaNo word count.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

RemiMayier — Wed, 19 Oct 2011 17:24:44 -0500

I am writing a Twilight fic for NaNo thought it won't be a retelling of the series per say. I am taking the general idea of Twilight, the whole girl falls in love with an immortal, and writing out what Stephenie Meyer was trying to write. I mean when you watch her in interviews it just seems like there is a huge disconnect between what is on the page and what she actually thinks is on the page. Like she had this great idea but didn't have the ability to put it to paper. So I am trying to put together what Bella and Edward were supposed to be, or what she thinks they are, and use that as the basis of my original characters. So my story is going to center around Bella's half-sister, Elle (yes, I am aware that that background alone makes her a Mary-Sue, I'm just running with it.) Elle is going to fall in with a group of hybrid-vampire hunters, and make the decision to join them. Then she is going to meet Bella and realize that her sister is a vampire. Family drama ensues. lol

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

heatherbee — Tue, 18 Oct 2011 18:47:47 -0500

More Klainers! Yay! Sometimes characters are elusive like that. I'm that way with Supernatural. I love that show, but I cannot make Sam and Dean sound even remotely like themselves, so I let it go and just enjoy other people's stories. I actually cringe when some Glee characters make an appearance in my fics, but they're needed so I do my best. I remember reading some MWPP stories that left out Peter because the writer couldn't do him justice, and it threw off the whole story, so I make it a point not to shy away from characters who should be there. But it is scary when some of them show up.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

samhinrichs678 — Tue, 18 Oct 2011 23:16:06 -0500

I think part of my problem is that I don't know anybody even remotely like any of them so I don't have a real example to base them on.

I'll just sit here and go "Wow! Awesome!" at two aspects of your post: 1) That someone out there is *still* writing Due South fanfic - which is epic in and of itself as the last time I peeked into the fandom (on LJ at least) it looked to be sadly dying out and people moving onto new fandoms. And 2) That icon. I like Meg and thought the actress that played her was really good but CKR had me at "Fraser! Buddy!" and I've never looked back. Ray K was a brilliant character and I love that pic of him in the icon.

This morning, I was looking at the trope page for something totally different (a book by Neil Gaiman, Neverwhere) and eventually made my way to World of Darkness through the addictive magic of the wiki. I had no idea Vampire: The Masquerade was part of something bigger! That one, I've definitely heard about. A sale on Batman games at an online game convinced me to try the demo for Arkham Asylum, and while the gameplay itself is a mixed bag, the story and characterization gave me a major The Animated Series vibe, not least because aaaaaah Mark Hamill voices the Joker, YES. Hee. Now I feel like going back and watching TAS. Too bad it isn't on Blu-Ray.

I <3 Criminal Minds. I haven't watched much CSI: LV since Grissom left though. Actually, I haven't watched much CM in a while either:( I can't think of any pairings between established characters, though since you mentioned Reid, I think it would be fun to see him with the red head on CSI (I such at names). She's so bossy & street-wise, I think she's the kind of person he would get totally in over his head with. I love to see him discombobulated. But you already have Reid set, so that's just my 2c;~)

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Amaritage — Sun, 23 Oct 2011 02:41:08 -0500

Nah I'm writing her with Matt because I like the pairing... I didn't find out my sister didn't like either pairing until it was already written and I wasn't going to go back and change it just to please her xD. She tried to get me to do it, but I didn't let her persuade me. I don't blame you for switching to another fandom if you where having problems doing the Digimon correctly. It's hard to get them in character when there are so many of them >.<. Why did I have to like the Anime that seems to like having tons of main characters and I diffidently need to watch Frontier if it's that neat. I have seen both Savers and Xcros Wars. Savers is pretty good with how the story goes and all just a little too short for my liking and the movie for it isn't that great. As for Xcros Wars it had me squealing like a fan girl through out it and it's rare that Anime's can make me do that.

Your Doctor Who one sounds interesting! And who am I kidding, I love Sherlock Holmes too. Do you mind if I buddy you out of sheer curiosity about where your novel is going? (and is your icon a tiny-BBC-series-Watson?) Also, Tardis Hall is making me giggle. Does.... time flow backwards in some of the rooms? Is there an empty one that smells like roses? A giant freaking bell? A pool next to the library? I had an idea for a novel about two weeks ago, but now I don't like it any more. The only replacement idea I have is a Dresden Files fic about an OC, one of Luccio's baby Wardens. His name is Jamie, he dropped out of college to help fight the war, and he's terrible at combat magic. I'd say that I'm still not sure whether that's going to happen, but I've been writing a short story with him this week and it seems to become more likely all the time. ALSO, I kind of feel the same about mine, that with very little alteration I could make it not-fic. But this is NaNo! We're writing first drafts! Let's make them as much fun as possible! (Why yes, I do want to use the words "Camp Kaboom.")

I think most people were astounded, and most people are either really worried about HG, or Jinks (or some both) or Mrs. Fredric. It's interesting how the writers sorta took three characters that mostly have different fan bases and put them all in jeopardy ('cause we know at least one or two of them are gonna come back). So, they would get the widest variety of people waiting anxiously for the next season. (It'd be an even better idea if all three of the characters made an appearance on the non-canonish X-mas episode too.... :))

DanieXJ — Sat, 22 Oct 2011 10:24:37 -0500

A Mary Sue is only a Mary Sue if she's the author's doppleganger, not another characters. And, of course, all characters have a little Mary Sue in them, because we write them all. But as long as the author lets the characters (MC or not) be different as well as have parts of themselves in there then it's not a Mary Sue.

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Michael S. Repton — Sat, 22 Oct 2011 14:53:01 -0500

Not insane at all. I've been playing for over a year in an Exalted game that's been running for, I think, five years, and the story that's come out of it is awesome.

Dude, I just read the summary. It sounds like it could be really interesting. I don't know why but for some reason the thought of Phil and Renee having kids never occured to me. I guess because Renee seemed so happy that she didn't have a kid to slow her down or something in the movies/books.

I actually haven't seen that movie yet! I really need to grab the DVD, because I have a feeling I'd like the Eighth Doctor a lot. This was actually spawned by wanting to see these characters interact, but then I had an idea regarding a plot thread from series 1, and because of the nature of the In Death series, it was perfect!

Haha. Yeah, the movie is absolutely terrible, but Paul McGann is a brilliant Doctor, he's completely adorable. And the TARDIS desktop theme is pretty cool. Yeah, I'm sticking Jack and River together with only poor Rory around to try to hold back the explosion of flirt. :D River's so hot.

Oh Ten/River break my heart. I love how even when he didn't know a thing about her other than they're together in the future, he still falls in love with her a bit anyway in Silence in the Library. It's going to be so sad when she officially dies and the Doctor doesn't run into her anymore. :(

That sounds great! I would read that ^^ I already posted here once, but I'm too lazy to find that post so I'm just posting again, changing my idea. I'm kind of doing an amalgamation of things. I've got a couple Harry Potter stories I want to work on, a couple Warrior Cat stories I'm gonna work on, and anything else that pops up. I'm being a Rebel and just tossing all the word counts together for this month. :3

Ahh! *hugs* I am so happy to see someone else writing TH, too! :D My Big Bang is "Blessed with Lucky Sevens". It needs a LOT of work, so avoid it for now if you can. lol It started off really well, but as the deadline drew closer, I just couldn't make it flow as well as it needs to. That's why I'm reworking the end for NaNo. Check out some of my other fics on THF (Maiwen over there, too) and you tell me if I'm into twincest. ;) And I'm so adding you as a writing buddy. ^_^

Like your avatar. I've always wanted to do Star Wars fanfic, maybe something in the universe but with Shadow Jedis. Love the idea of a character that is thought of by the goody two shoes Jedis as 'evil', but really just does stuff his or her way, and tries to be good, but isn't afraid to get his or her hands dirty to get to that good. Probably comes from all my Xena watching, my brain probably made some weird neural connection at some point and it's stuck there. But, I've tried to start the fic a couple of times, and it comes out utter and total crap. Good luck to you, your sounds very interesting.

I did Star Wars for my first NaNo! I didn't get very far, though. That was two years ago and it's still waiting for me to finish it...

Thanks! I'm pretty excited. It's going to be sort of an ecologicaley thing based on the part in MI where Gideon Spilett wants to go all dalek on the jaguars + the Danes wanting to get rid of Grendel and Ma Grendel. Verne has no concept of an interconnected ecosystem, which intrigues me :D

I don't know about advice, but I've always said that the Twilight series was like a crappy fanfic that Stephanie Meyer wrote about some really great story. You know, it depends on if you want it to be compliant with what happens in the series, or maybe something that happens in the middle of it. I don't know if you have a plot at all, but maybe writing something from the perspective of minor characters (the Volturi, the werewolves, or even some of the human characters discovering vampire stuff) might help avoid some of that raging fury you might have about the flatness that is Bella/Edward/Jacob (or at least what I would have).

Re: Fanfiction Writers!

Kenya Starflight — Wed, 02 Nov 2011 09:13:31 -0500

One thing you might do is a "deconstruction" of the book/series you're planning on fanficcing for. Try to look at the world from another angle, and see what that view shows you. One of my favorite fanfic series is "The Storm Dragons," a fanfic of Christopher Paolini's "Eragon" books that really dissects the series and shows that looked at from another point of view, the heroes really aren't as heroic as they claim to be, and there's something really wrong and messed up with the society in the novel. So... look at Bella from another point of view, maybe, and see what someone who doesn't love her unconditionally thinks?

I thought of being a Rebel alongside my official nano, but I'm afraid my Naruto ff would be too distracting! I'd want to spend my time working on it, instead of completing my own original fic plot bunny! So I'm using ff writing as a carrot to keep me going. Once I hit my word count, then I'm free to fanfic it up! lol Best of luck with your writing!

My best advice is to make it your own. I personally don't like using the author's charcters from a book, but games, movies, etc. I might. Have fun, and don't worry to much about the quality of your work until those fifty thousand are out.

[quote=angonzo] Okay, so I'm writing some Harry Potter fanfiction. Its AU after OOtP. I'm trying to find a creative way to kill off Voldemort without Horcruxes. My thought right now kind of bases itself around the relationship between Voldemort and Nagini, that there is some sort of soul/power center created there, which Harry will use to rid the Dark Lord once and for all. Intriguing? Sound stupid? Any suggestions? Ideas? [/quote] How about something like this ... Voldie drank Nagini's venom to survive and used Harry's blood in get his body back. So Voldie's new body includes Nagini's and Harry's magic (DNA, essence, whatever). He has bound all this using Parseltongue spells found in Slytherin's office. Harry only has a link to Voldie, Nagini only has a link to Voldie, but Voldemort has a link to Harry and Nagini. And Harry's wand is a match for Voldemort's. So, if Harry kills Nagini with his wand using a Parseltongue spell, then Voldemort gets a massive 3 way magical feedback from his link to Nagini, Harry's wand and Harry's scar. Also, as the spell is in Parseltongue Nagini's magical power in Voldie dies with Nagini, so the venom ceases to protect Voldie. You could even have it that the spell Harry uses is a 'releasing enslavement' spell that needs love to power it. So Harry doesn't actually kill Nagini - Voldie's previous bad behaviour sealed her fate if the link was ever removed. You're welcome to use these ideas if you like

Anyone figure out a way around this? I just want to hold a copy. I don't want to sell it. I just want it for meeeeee... [/quote] I looked into it, and the link they have that is supposed to be to 'submission requirements' doesn't talk about content at all. I wonder, since we're just making them for us & not for distribution, if it would be okay. I'd love to have copies of mine, too! Of course, that means I actually have to finish writing the story & type the whole thing up, since it's still not done even w/over 50k words, AND it's all hand-written...

[quote=golfgal08] I was sitting oh-so-innocently at my desk at work yesterday when a rabid plot bunny mauled me. By lunchtime, I had a general plot synopsis, and by dinner, I had a working outline with significant details for chapter one. I ended up writing 2200 words last night, and chapter one isn't finished. This is quickly turning into an epic rewrite of half a season of a TV show. (Okay, fine, I admit it, I'm writing Power Rangers in Space fanfiction.) I swear, I wasn't planning on writing this. I was supposed to be preparing for Script Frenzy! Or working on original fiction! But this is eating at my brain now, so I'm just rolling with it. I have a hard time planning out epics and then following through on them, so I'm hoping maybe this time I'll finish the thing. [/quote] *sounds like a complete noob* What is Script frenzy?
