Some Excerpts
I’m sure I’m not alone when I say that I’ve think I’ve been writing fan fiction in my head ever since, well… forever. I’m appallingly bad at sleeping, and I used to create stories in my head about the characters I loved to help me fall asleep. I didn’t discover what I was doing had a name though until a couple of years ago. As far as writing it myself goes, even though I’ve always written original stories, it never even occurred to me to write any fanfiction down until discovered the online fanfic world through a series of fantasy books I loved. I’m a compulsive shipper at heart, and in this series there was almost no chance of these two main characters getting together (he was 30, elusive and mega powerful, she was 17 and totally kickass… hmmmm… actually now I write that, it sounds so familiar! Talk about not straying from the path! Ha!) Anyway, I used to hunt for fanfic on them, and one day stumbled across the old WRFA instead… After guzzling up a tonne of the stories on there, I thought that maybe I could have a go myself.
I watched the cartoons growing up (but always preferred Thundercats – shh!) I didn’t become a Logan/Rogue fan until one of my friends practically dragged me to go and see the first film with her. Then she came out the cinema mumbling that the cartoon was much better, I came out all hyper and ‘OMG the chemistry!!’ Was a secretive closet fan for years – until I finally came out when I joined the WRFA.
In a word…yes *g*. I love making people laugh! (I used to get into a lot of trouble at school and uni because of it. That and practical jokes…) I like bending the rules and pushing the characters as far as they can go in weird and wonderful directions. And if I can take them somewhere they’ve never been before, then even better.
