Yeah, fair enough. I created in my head, but never quite finished, a Mass Effect fan-fic that consisted of a C-Sec officer and a Quarian, who was looking for Tali, attempting to shut down a crime lord dealing in pieces of Sovreign, which the Council wanted for research into Reaper tech. There was a pretty big twist near the end, which is pretty easy to guess once you learn the meaning behind the name of the crime lord, Casper.

I've written some rather public fan-fiction, yes... one series was adopted into canon as a nod, and another got me some seriously-scary attention that ended up as an unintended Google-bomb. Maybe I'll go pro[sup]*[/sup] sometime, should I ever get off my butt and get serious.

[sup]*[/sup]Arguably, that could be "come out of retirement" as I did a stint in the "minor leagues" of game writing back in the '90s.

I've written some stories set in the Halo universe that take place after Halo 3
I never posted them of course.
In Halo 3, if you beat the game on legendary, it proves that the Master Chief isn't dead, but he floats in another planet. There were two stories. The first one is that the planet he lands on happens to be a flood infected planet, and it reads in the style of a horror book, so there's a lot of graphic imagery. The other one happens to be a training ground for new Spartans A' La Reach. If anyone is wondering what the Reach in the upcoming Halo reach means, it's the training ground for Spartans. It takes place 10 years from Halo 3, and it's the Chief training the Spartans until it gets attacked, then it shifts focus from the chief, to the new Spartans.
I never posted them of course.
You actually want to read it????Lexodus said:

Oh and take note, I wrote the beginning ages ago so the main characters names are coincidental
Oh yeah. A friend of mine had his own website, moderate traffic, completely pointless. So four of us decided to do weekly chapters on this story. On odd numbered chapters we had the option to introduce a new character, evens we couldn't. It was fun for a few weeks. After week 16 it was boring. When Lestat and Superman were trying to fight with Link and Richard Rahl, I lost faith in the concept.
Ehh.... I could have sworn that I have written like one or two, but none come to my mind..
Although, I hate to admit that I have made a lot of fan characters...

I've written bits and pieces before, but I freely admit that it's garbage. It's fun. Every time someone leaves a positive comment [http://www.fanfiction.net/r/4956961/] I get to shout 'what is wrong with you people?!'
Heh. Some people have such low standards.

Sort of. All of it has been OC in no set universe, except for one thing in a generic D&D verse.
Something like that happens when I listen to certain things. Some songs are just perfect for AMVs.Yassen said:
I'm sure I have. Actually, now that I think about it, I can remember a few stories I wrote that took place in the CoH verse, but I never did anything with them.
I've written quite a few stories though, where the intent was for it to be fan-fic, but do to character limitations or not being able to be faithful to what I think the character is, I usually end up Watchmening it and making characters and locales with similar attributes but different names and personalities then the archetypes that inspire them.
I think fan-fic is great for developing your prose and writing technique. I don't agree with the stigma that seems to be attached to it.

I once tried to adapt a D&D campaign into a novella.
I also started an Eye of Argon [http://www-users.cs.york.ac.uk/~susan/sf/eyeargon/eyeargon.htm] fanfic-type thingy, but I just couldn't make it worse.
