Some Excerpts
I'm not really a fan of Superman. I've seen the four Superman movies with Christopher Reeve when I was younger, but they didn't spark any interest. On the other hand, it was because of my interest in L&C that I read Roger Stern's "The Death and Life of Superman". It's a great book, and I would recommend it to anyone.
With one exception, my stories take place in the future, after the series ended, in a L&C 'universe' that I had created beforehand. I was responsible for creating a 'family tree' of Lois and Clark because I wanted a 'reference point' to base my stories on. This 'family tree' not only had names and dates of our favorite characters but also names and dates of Lois and Clark's descendants, all the way to their great-grandchildren (what can I say, I'm a stickler for details <g>). I had intended for all my stories to be in the same continuity, where events from one story could be inferred in another. This means, of course, that the order I've written my stories does not follow in chronological order from the end of the series - I've jumped around in the future timeline. )
As I mentioned before, I was a little guilty because I was reading everything but wasn't doing any writing of my own. I also viewed writing fanfic as a challenge, because until then it was something I had never done before.
