Well I’ve been incredibly slack just recently - aside from a busy real life - the Olympics are on so I haven’t really done much at all with the site. Instead here’s just a few links and recent additions to the fanfiction archive.
You are a neko. Your necklace has a secret that you dont know about. Your sister, too, knows something you don’t. Your teammate, Tenten, hates you. Did I mention you love Hyuga Neji?
Melanie Meyer is a half vampire. She does not drink blood like full blooded vampires, in fact, she gets faint at the sight of any blood at all. She is stronger than humans, but she is not as strong as full vampires. She is stuck in the middle of everything except love. She has never fallen in love, and no one in the vampire world will have anything to do with her. In fact, her parents have forbidden her to see anyone from the vampire world. In the human world, she is shunned because of her strange ways. This doesn’t seem to bother her, but just when her locked away loneliness is about to reach its limit, she sees him…
Gavin Jones is a star even in the vampire world. He is bright, handsome, and strong. Every girl in his school has their eye on him, but he is tired of the popularity and all the pressure to be what he is not, so he escapes to the human world. He enrolls in a high school and is just as popular, but the humans are easily scared from him… except one girl. When he looks into her eyes…
Realised I hadn’t added an X-Fies fanfiction section yet - duh! - so that’s been done.
Added some links to some individual stories on the Femslash Fanfiction Page.
Added some more reviews to the Xena The Conqueror Reviews page (and remember if you have a favourite fanfic you’d like to review just let me know - either here or via the fanfic reviewers group)
Fanfic Blog
Haven’t done much to this blog at all recently - I haven’t had much of a chance to go searching for fanfic or fanart contests recently - so if you have any or know of any that you want to plug please just drop me a line.
Still slowly adding new categories and characters etc.

Well it’s that time again - below you’ll find what’s been going on in the wonderful world of fanfiction, both within this fanfiction site and across the internet.
Main Fanfiction Site:
First and Foremost is the move to the new domain name you’ll now find the main site, along with the fanfiction archive and beta-readers forum at the new url{ http://fanfic-4all.com (as always there are links to be found within the blog etc)
I’ve added a new page that lists the beginning of what could turn into a very long list of online virtual seasons. So if you’re wondering what others have come up with after your favourite television show finished its run on tv check these out - Virtual Seasons
If you’d like me to add your virtual season to the list - just let me know.
I’ve also made a separate page in recognition of the International Day Of Femslash - this was held on the 19th July 2008 and from what I’ve read will now become an annual event. You can find more information on that here: Femslash
Fanfiction Archive:
While the number of members is increasing, I’m still trying to get more writers to submit their fanfiction. Of course this will be an ongoing process and hopefully before long there will be a wide selection for readers/writers to choose from. Remember if I haven’t yet added your fandom/characters just let me know (either through this blog or the contact form on the archive site)
The Peaceful Pathway is a Fanficiton story loosely based off of and inspired by Watsuki Nobuhiro’s famous title “Rurouni Kenshin”.
The Warring States Period was a time of social upheaval, political intrigue, and nearly constant military in Japan that lasted roughly from the middle of the 15th century to the beginning of the 17th century.
Although the Ashikaga Shogunate had retained the structure of the Kamakura Bakufu and instituted a warrior government based on the same social economic rights and obligations established by the Houjou with the Jouei Code in 1232, it failed to win the loyalty of many Daimyo, especially those whose domains were as far as Kyoto. As trade with China grew, the economy developed, and the use of money became widespread as markets and commercial cities appeared.
This, combined with developments in agriculture and small-scale trading, led to the desire for greater local autonomy throughout all levels of the social hierarchy. As early as the beginning of the 15th century, suffering and misery caused by natural disasters such as earthquakes and famines often served to trigger armed uprisings by farmers weary of debt and taxes. The Sengoku period consisted of different periods of fission and fusion. This story is based off of those events.
Remember if you read and enjoy a story - either on the fanfiction archive or elsewhere online - take the time to let the writer know your thoughts - either via a review or email etc.
Other Stuff.
Yay for me - you may remember a little while ago I wrote a post about the demise of my PDA - well I bit the bullet yesterday and got myself a new one (well okay it’s second hand - but it’s new to me) while it has more bells and whistles than what I’ll ever need - now that I’ve got it figured out (the one problem with buying second hand is no user manuals or discs etc) it does what I want it to - that is - lets me put my fanfic stories on there so I can read them in comfort rather than having to try and stare at this computer screen for hours on end) for those interested it’s a hp iPaq h1910
I think that about covers it for now - If you have any questions, comments or suggestions just let me know.
For many of us who get totally hooked on our favourite shows, when we realise that series is coming to an end, we sometimes wonder just how we’re going to fill our time (that special time slot where you just had to be home so you could catch up on your show). For some we’re able to continue watching via our much loved series DVDs, some downline tv shows online, while others have discovered the joy of virtual seasons.
Virtual Seasons, in a nutshell, are usually when a group of people get together and through writing and images produce weekly episodes that continue on from where the series ended. Each week you get to continue on with the lives of your favourite television characters.
As part of the main fanfiction site - I’ve just added a page for a wide variety of virtual seasons of favourite television series that can be found online. While there is only half a dozen or so listed there at the moment this will no doubt grow as I come across others. If you have, or know of, a virtual season please let me know and I’ll add it to the list
I still have a lot of fiddling around to do (changing links etc within the main site) and I really need to figure out how to convert this blog over so the url changes to the new one, but it’s a start.
I’ve added a page to the main fanfic site that has a list of sites holding different events for this day - Femslash. Of course you’ll find more on the main IDF page.
If you’re part of this event and would like me to add you to the main page, please feel free to let me know. Just leave a link to your site and any relevant details you would like me to add either via email or in the comments section below.
In Mid-July (July 15th, July 17th and July 19th) Dr Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog will bring you a unique offering - these episodes will be available until July 20th after which they’ll disappear forever (well at least until the DVD comes out)
You can find out more about the Master Plan here - the reason he’s started this series (something good to come from the writers strike) along with other ways we (the fans) can help promote this etc.
If you want a quick glimpse as to what is coming check out the teaser
Some general tidying up and adding more links to a variety of fandoms as well as adding a new Facts Of Life page. As I mentioned in the page, it seems that many of the FOL fanfic sites are no longer available online (which is a shame) so if you have any stories you’d like to submit - please add them to the Fanfiction Archive or if you have any stories you’d like to let me know about please feel free to share (looking at my stats this is a popular fandom so I’d like to provide as much as I can)
The Sweetest Sin - Harry Potter - Summary - Fred turned around, his eyes holding the same calm expression he’d developed while facing the door. He held his head up, not turning away this time, but making sure to try his best and keep staring into Kylee’s eyes. They were so blue. So beautiful. He wanted to kiss the skin around them, feel the gentle lips that shared the same pretty face as them… Fred wanted to hold Kylee in his arms and make her his own. Even though what he was thinking was unlike himself, now… he found he wanted it that way. He wanted Kylee that way.
Miserable At Best - Harry Potter - Summary - A story based off of the song “Miserable At Best” by Mayday Parade. George has kept his feelings pent up inside of him for too long. Now it’s his turn to feel. Fred/OC/George
I Just Want You To Know Who I Am - Harry Potter - Summary - And I don’t want the world to see me/Cause I don’t think that they’d understand/When everything’s made to be broken/I just want you to know who I am. Main Pairing: Sirius/OC. Based on Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls.
As always if you read an enjoy these and any other online stories please remember to take the time to thank the writer and/or offer any constructive advice etc.
Thanks to a comment left on this blog a little while ago (initial post here) I’ve spent a bit of time off and on wandering around the Fan History site. At the time of the comment I mentioned that I’d take a look at it and post a link to it in this blog - well, first I must apologise for not getting to this sooner and second I must say I’m not sure where to start.
According to the site
Fan History is a fandom portal dedicated to documenting the history of fandom and creating a directory of everyone in fandom
But it is so much more than that…
It provides its visitors with information on the history of various fandoms, a list of fan communities and current fandom news - you can read more about this on the About Page
Whether it’s books, movies, theatre, tv shows or anything in between there’s no doubt a fandom/community for it and this site has it covered.
There’s so much more here than I could cover, and being a wiki it’s ever-growing so go and take a look the next time you’re wondering about the history of your fandom.
I’ve just added two new fandoms to the main fanfiction site.
Battlestar Galactica and Criminal Minds have now been added, both of these have links to several large archive sites so for those that read in these two fandoms there should be hours worth of reading there to keep you entertained.
As always if you have any suggestions or would like to review some of your favourite stories in these fandoms please let me know.
