Felicitations, fellow fanfiction followers. I love this site, it has provided me with hours upon hours of entertainment and escape. I love to read the stories, mostly Ezria, and to give feedback to the authors. There are several writers on the site that would do well pursuing a career in writing and watching people's imaginations come out to play is an honor and a delight.
One thing that really saddens me, though, are all of the unfinished stories. I am NOT fussing at the writers. Life is unpredictable, schedules get crowded, inspiration dries up, interests change. This is really more of a testament to the writers of these stories because, sometimes in only a couple of chapters, they captured my attention and left my imagination with a need to find the ending.
So, this is my new endeavor. I will be choosing some stories that I particularly connected with and attempt to create the rest of the narrative. I will try to get in contact with the original writer and ask for permission. Credit will ALWAYS be given to the creator of the story. I will point readers to the title and writer of the original part, then I will pick it up in my posts. If I cannot contact the writer I will begin on the story, with the understanding that if the O.A. (original author) has a problem, I will be happy to talk with them, smooth things over, or even remove my additions.
My only intention with this is to make myself and you readers happy. Each story will be treated with respect. I will NOT satirize any of the pieces. I may take them in a different direction than other people expect, but I will try to base my continuations on what I perceive to be the O.A.'s original intent. I have permission to adopt one story, and I have one story completed and I'm waiting on the O.A.'s blessing. I have several others in mind, but I am also happy to take suggestions. I am a hardcore Ezria shipper, so most of the stories will be focused that way. But I will consider other stories and pursue them if I think I can do them justice. I will even take Jaria stories, but not if it trashes Ezra in any way. Actually, don't ask for any stories that trash Ezra in any way. But Jaria worlds where there is no Ezra, or is set before Ezra, I really like. Jason is a fascinating character to unpack.
Ok, that's my pitch. I will be waiting another 2 weeks for an answer about the first story, if anyone is in contact with bite-me-I'm-irish, (as of May 4, 2018) would you please let her know that I sent her a P.M.? I will start posting the story I have the greenlight for in a few weeks. (Gotta love that light summer reading) Thank you all who have read this, and send me suggestions. Blessings to all!
