AbbyBanks has been a writer in the due South fandom since mid-2008.

Writing style

luzula in ds_profiles says about AbbyBanks's due South writing:

"AbbyBanks is talented with the short format, and she writes everything from angst to light and humorous stories. Her angst is often matter-of-fact, and all the more effective for it. When she writes gen, it's often thoughtful and focuses on characters or situations from new angles."

Notable Works

due South

• Wars Not Yet Dreamed Of (Fraser/Kowalski UST, but mostly gen, NC-17, 2600 words). This is an apocalypse story, and it's correspondingly bleak. It's hard to say anything about it without revealing too much, but it is an amazing story. It's partly the structure of the story, where everything comes together in the end in a chilling way, and partly the great Fraser POV.

• September 1993 (Ray Kowalski, gen, R, 1000 words). AbbyBanks takes a stray phrase from the show about Ray's third citation for bravery and brings it to life. We get to see Ray being competent, but there's also a shadow of bitterness there, about the way his career is going and about his relationship to Stella.

• Communicating (Dief and Stella Kowalski, gen, PG, 735 words). This is a hilarious story about Dief and Stella getting locked in together, and their "conversation". Dief's comeback at the end is great.
