Hello! I am the world's worst fanfic author, and I guess this project will prove it just by the sheer amount of unfinished works I have spanning the past 9 years of my life.

Please notice... I am NOT including Arranged in this Unfinished Collection, because I swear on my beloved Toothless plushie that I WILL FINISH THAT STORY. I may need to see Dragons 3 to get that final push of inspiration, but I WILL do it. I am so sorry I've held you captive for like 2 years with that story, I WILL finish it even if the trade off is I can't write anything else ever again. I am that determined to finish Arranged be cause I love it that fucking much! And if you're reading this on AO3 instead of FFdotnet, Arranged WILL migrate over there once I actually finish it!

Everything else I'm about to post… man I sure HOPE inspiration will hit me one day and I'll finish a few of these, but considering some of them haven't even been opened since 2012, it's doubtful.

And yet I can't bear to delete any of them. They meant something to me at some point in time and I can't just throw that away, so I've decided to share it with you all. Yes, even all of the Twilight stuff that 2018 Me is like, "Sage… the fuck were you drinking when you wrote this shit, girl?"

Consider this a look into the evolution of a fanfiction author over a decade of their life. My style has changed, my characterizations have changed, my fandoms have shifted… 2009 Me and 2018 Me are two totally different bitches, y'all.

Some of these are multi-chapters. I have a couple of Twilight multi-chapters that actually got quite long but I never posted a word of them because my greatest fear was always losing a story before I finished it. (Fucking Prophetic!) Some of these are one-shots that got SO CLOSE to being done and I just can't find the ending in me anywhere. Some of them are songfics for songs I haven't heard in YEARS now, but at the time that music sparked something in me that I couldn't let go of. And I'm a total whore for a good songfic, so that happens a LOT more than even this collection would show you. Some of my songfics never even get out of my head at all.

This is all gonna be unedited in any way. You're gonna get all of the shitty mistakes, poor word choices, run on sentences, half fleshed out ideas, and weirdness as I originally typed it all out. I'll try to give brief end notes of when approximately I was writing each piece and any other little bits that are stuck in my head about them. I'll try to post them roughly in order as well, oldest to most recent.

Thanks for indulging me in this delving of the shit that haunts my Unfinished Files (which Holy Fuck as I typed that I decided to call this whole project that instead of Unfinished Collection), and I want you to let me know what you think. I don't need the spelling and grammar stuff pointed out to me (hello, unedited) but tell me where you think it should have gone. Tell me what you think would have worked better. Who knows, maybe one of your comments will be the spark I needed to finish one of these stories, or if you really really love it and want to take it on, let me know and I'll let you adopt it as long as I get credit for the original concept.

Much Love,

Sage
