Some Excerpts

Well, sadly, I haven't been there from the beginning. I didn't even bother to see the movie in the theater, because I sort of turned up my nose at a "comic book movie." Stupid me! I missed seeing Hugh on the big screen that time! Once I saw the movie on video, though, I was immediately interested in Wolverine and Rogue as a couple. They both had that outsider vibe, and I felt like they made a strange sort of sense. Their relationship struck me as one with a number of possibilities. I was a big fan of Elizabeth's Roswell fic, and I'd noticed that she'd written some X-men fic as well. That's how I got pulled into the X-men fanfic world.

I suppose you could say that there's a little bit of a writer in every character they write, but I don't specifically write a Rogue or Jubilee that has Jamie in her. I'm nowhere near that cool. And I don't wear yellow. :) I think what's so interesting about the whole X-men universe is that everybody can identify with the feeling of being different or feeling like a mutant among "normal" people. So, there's some of that in fanfic as well.
