Some Excerpts

I first started writing fan fic a year ago as an outlet for my grief. My first S&H story was called "Special Assignment." I just wanted to do a nice simple little story to try out my wings, so to speak.

Well, I've noticed that I tend to write a lot of angst. I like to focus on the friendship between the guys, especially when they comfort each other... I'm not too good with an actual mystery. I usually end up confusing myself when trying to come up with a good plot!

I definitely think feedback is important to the writing process. It's the only way to really know if you're on target or not with your stories. I welcome constructive criticism and positive comments. I really appreciate it when someone takes the time to let me know they liked my story. The story I've received the most feedback on is "Badge of Courage." The little boy in that story is based on my son, a little boy who loved Starsky and the Torino. I also received quite a bit of feedback on "What's in a Name," "Remnant of My Soul," and "Four Minutes."

I watch Supernatural, because the chemistry between the brothers reminds me of the chemistry between S&H...I used to write some A-Team fan fiction, but that's pretty much fallen by the wayside....I love angst and h/c stories. But I also love a good mystery. Anything that highlights the friendship between the guys.
