Some Excerpts

Why did you start writing hanfic? How long have you been writing?

Hanfic was the first fanfiction I ever read or knew existed. For that reason, this fandom has always been close to my heart. After reading many stories, I decided I wanted to write my own. I started writing hanfic in 1999, however it was written the old fashioned way – with pen and paper. I still have some of my handwritten stories filed away somewhere! After writing many unfinished and scrapped works over the years, I finally decided to share a piece with others. Mad World was an idea I could stick with that I felt would interest other readers, while also keeping my own attention over the long term.

Do you write other fiction and/or fanfic as well? If so, what genres/fandoms/etc?

I used to write Angel (the spinoff to Buffy the Vampire Slayer) and Bones fanfiction. I also have 3 original fiction stories currently in my saved files to be published someday.

What are your favorite hanfic stories and authors?

The more realistic and well-characterized a story is, the more I like it!
