Fan Fiction

Acalewia · 05-03-2006, 01:27 PM

How many of you write Fan Fiction?

Ireth · 06-23-2006, 01:30 PM

I do. So far I've written only Harry Potter fan-fiction, though.

Curubethion · 06-23-2006, 03:50 PM

If you count Entmoot and Atharon RPGs, yeah, I write fanfiction. But nothing besides that.

I just prefer making up my own worlds, with their own customs, languages, etc.

Tuinor · 06-23-2006, 06:42 PM

Fan Fiction? This may seem dumb on my part, but is that Fantasy Fiction?

Curubethion · 06-23-2006, 11:24 PM

It's any fiction set in an existing fiction world, usually one with movies or (a) book(s), and typically involving main characters. For example: you could write Fan Fiction about Star Wars if you were telling the continued story of Luke Skywalker after Episode VI. Another example of Fan Fiction would be writing M:I 4. At least, I don't think it has to be fantasy.

But most Fan Fiction is fantasy, and it's usually LOTR too...and often involves Legolas...

Isn't there a fan-fiction section on tolkientrail? I remember reading some there.

***Earniel*** · 06-24-2006, 09:32 AM

There is, probably hasn't been updated for years, though.

Curubethion · 06-30-2006, 07:45 PM

Has any of tolkientrail been updated?
Did you know that searching "LOTR fanfic" is actually how I found Entmoot?

Acalewia · 07-01-2006, 08:20 PM

Thats cool.
One place to read fanfic is at fanfiction.net. Stories from movies books(including WoT and LotR) cartoons, etc, etc.

I'm not a writer, but I enjoy reading fan fiction. Thank you for the link.

Are you on that site? I noticed that there was an "Acalewia" registered there.

Acalewia · 07-05-2006, 01:16 PM

Yeah. I just haven't been able to upload my story. LXG.

There's also an "Acalewia Dunedain" registared there.

Rosie Gamgee · 07-05-2006, 02:04 PM

*wonders* Gee, you know I thought I posted in here, but now that I peruse the thread, I cannot find my post. Huh. *shrug*

*raises hand* I've written a bit of fan-fic. Unfortunately, most of it falls in with the rest of my unfinished writing. That dratted writer'sblockitis is a killer, believe you me. At any rate, I can think of one fan-fic I actually finished; a Pirates of the Caribbean story I titled Jack and the Genie. I believe I posted it here.

My latest work in progress is lacking a name, but in lieu of one I've been calling it, "Demaethor and Amariel." I've been posting it here, in the thread 'Aw, heck; this has no name.' Not a very grabby title, which may explain the lack of readers. But I am pleased with it, seeing as my recent bout with writer's block seems to have gone into remission. I'll be posting another chapter soon.
I might just finish it, more's the merrier. I've never finished a story this long before.

Huorn · 07-16-2006, 11:33 PM

I have helped others write Fanfic on other websites. I generally like to participate in interactive Tolkien themed RPGs that are based on writing rather than video games.

No...I actually think it's a good title to grab readers. I noticed it!

Entwife_Oak (aka Oak Leaf

): That includes LOTR Plaza, right?

***Valandil*** · 07-17-2006, 10:51 PM

I've tried to write a little. My entries here are in my sig.

Acalewia · 07-18-2006, 10:22 AM

There not so little, Val

Huorn · 07-18-2006, 10:39 AM

Cerubethion,

Yep. I am very well known over there. I like to come to this board because of its relaxed atmosphere.

Yeah, but I'm the only one posting in it. Not very promising, IMHO. But thanks for noticing.

Val-- *waves* Long time no bump-into!
