Sample of My Fan Fiction Stories Available

Just a few worth privately sharing if there's any interest. Email me at goss64@myfairpoint.net

1. Outlander: "E-lander" - In the year 2243 two very modern American women decide they're tired of the metro-sexualized men of their time. They want a REAL man. But none are to be had in this ultra feminist future century so what's a girl to do? Answer - They go on vacation ..... INTO A BOOK. This co-written story is written for humor and romance and angst with an overall NC-17 rating. The pairings are heterosexual in this tale. No profit is made from it.

2. Outlander: A collection of very short stories written mainly for humor based on the premise that William Wallace (from Braveheart), Dougal MacKenzie (from Outlander) and Jamie Fraser (from Outlander) are fictional characters deliberately brought to life outside their books/movie and now live with a modern day American woman called Mistress Max. For anyone who knows me as Max ... it's obvious there's a lot of headbutting issues with Dougal in these short tales, as he's my favorite Outlander character. The pairings are heterosexual. No profit is made from them.

3. N.C.I.S: "Boss, I don't think we're in Kansas anymore" - In the universe of our roleplay-writing group where this is being co-written, SOME humans treat fandom characters brought to life (called clones) not very nicely, as second class citizens or worse, as animals/pets. Most do not. Gibbs and Tony, two men who think they're straight, suddenly wake up in this world, truly alive now and no longer just characters on a television show, and are forced to learn their way as clones in order to survive. They're also forced to face something the writers of the show had not allowed them to consider. Maybe they're not so straight after all. The pairings are homosexual in this dark tale with an overall NC-17 rating. No profit is made from it.

4. Mad Max: "In the Desert Blooms New Life" - A story that takes place after the third movie. Can Max find some peace finally? The pairing is heterosexual and the overall rating is PG-13. No profit is made from it.

5. Romper Stomper: "Blast from the Past" - A story about an American girl learning a very hard lesson with skinhead Hando from the old Australian Russell Crowe movie Romper Stomper. The pairing is heterosexual and the overall rating is R. No profit is made from it.

6. Mad Max: "Mad Maxed" - Takes place before the first movie. Max is not married, has not met his future wife Jessie and is in for a surprise about his partner on the force and his own feelings about what he truly needs in a lover. The pairing is homosexual in this tale of exploration of a man reluctantly learning how to be Dom for a man who wants to be his sub. Overall NC-17 rating. No profit is made from it.

7. The Patriot: "The Perfect Holiday After All" - Ten years after the Revolutionary War on July 4th, Benjamin Martin encounters his old enemy William Tavington. This is an alternate universe story going with the premise that Tavington didn't die in the film. The pairing is homosexual in this dark tale of revenge and possibly something more. Overall NC-17 rating. No profit is made from it.

8. Indiana Jones: "Family Games" - Written as a response to a 5-minute writing challenge using 'Your hands' for the opening line. Short but fun. No profit is made from it.

Looking for me?

I'm most likely at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/roleplayhaven/

If you're a writer (or reader) of fan fiction or original fiction, we're a six year active group of mostly middle-ish aged ladies from around the world who get together to create a wide variety of stories for our enjoyment. Our group is multi-fandom, mixed-genre and slash-friendly for your favorite movie, TV, book and original characters.

If a writer hasn't tried RP (roleplay) writing before, we're definitely the place to give it a shot. We're very easy-going there, very few rules, and the people are friendly and more than willing to help newcomers try it out.

The best way I can describe it for writers who have never tried it is to picture a sandbox, you're playing with all the characters in it by yourself. Amazing worlds you create by yourself. Lots of fun. True. But then think of how much fun it can also be if another writer climbs into the sandbox with you and divides the characters with you to play them herself "against" yours?

Now you're suddenly creating worlds together; you never know exactly what the other writer is going to do in response to the writing of your own characters. It's unpredictable and exciting in that way, lots of unexpected twists and turns, and because our group allows up to THREE of the SAME fandom (movie/TV/book) character to be written there, the chance of your favorite character already being taken isn't nearly as high as at so many other RP groups where they only allow one of each character.

We can have three Batmans, three Jethro Gibbs, three James Bonds, etc, etc, etc running around our "world". We explain it there by calling them clones. That way no James Bond written by one member is better or more "real" than another James Bond written by another member in that world. They're all seen as "clones" living in a fictional modern day setting, pulled (as in cloned) out of their movies/books/TV shows to interact and form relationships with each other and with the "regular humans" who run the city.

This makes the possibilities for storylines in that world to be very light ones or very dark ones. (i.e. broad comedy through romance to adult situations). Whatever the writers want. And there's no storyline that everyone has to be involved in and no time limits. People play where they want when they want and how they want with who they want. We're a very active and long time group, quite a few storylines going on at the same time, and we tell people to just delete, delete, delete those threads (storylines) that hold no interest to them and only concentrate on the ones they like.

And if people prefer playing original characters rather than fandom characters, that's great too. We have a mix of both. We only ask, one of the very few rules of the group, is that all characters (and members) be at least 18 years of age. So if you're new or old to roleplaying (or even to writing) we hope you'll try us out. You can always unsub if you decide we're not the place for you.
