When I can bully my reluctant Muse into helping me, I write gen
fan fiction and slash fan fiction: I borrow other people's characters and
settings and create my own tales. Those of you from outside the fan fiction
community may know this process by a different name: folk literature.
Most of my fan fiction comes from obscure literary fandoms. In other words, I write rare litfic. I'm especially incline to write friendfiction. I also write original fiction (original gen, original slash, and a bit of original het): in those stories, I create my own characters and settings.
The line between my fan fiction and my original fiction is hazy. I've listed below, not only my fan fiction, but also my original fiction that I know was inspired by other people's writings. (In other cases, I can't trace the source of my inspiration for my originalfic, or the sources are too many to list). I've labelled each story so that you can tell which is fan fiction and which is original fiction.
I've listed some of my literarily inspired originalfic alongside my fanfic in order to make a point: No author writes in a vacuum. Any author who claims that their writings are 100% original just hasn't been honest with themselves about their sources of inspiration.
My second point is: The line between alternate universe fanfic and originalfic can be invisible. Many of you AU authors may be writing original fiction without knowing it.
You don't need to be familiar with any of the fandoms in order to read my stories. I design the stories so that they can be read on their own, without reference to the canon writings.
All stories listed below are by me. Where possible, I also link to the websites of the authors whose writings inspired mine.
