Author has written 5 stories for Mass Effect.

In the interest of fair warning I'll let you know right now, my final grade for English was a 'D'.

Still here? Still interested in reading more ramblings? Well fair enough at least I warned you, you're either a brave soul or a fool to continue. But I like you anyway!

Anyway like one or two other folk, I had qualms with how Bioware decided to conclude their Shepard's tale. So finding myself with more free-time than I know what to do with, nothing better to do and a strange urge to write, I'm embarking on a little project. Mostly for my own selfish reasons.

PS: All the copy-righted and intellectual property of Bioware/EA/some-other folks all remain the property of Bioware/EA/some-other folks. Also, no money is received by myself, or on on my behalf, for the stories I write.

PPS: What comes after PPS, is it PPPS? P(X3)S? Or just a simple scream of rage, crumpling of paper and the realisation that you might as well start over?

Miranda: The Space That Separates by hardboiledgregg reviews
Having left the organisation that had been her home for the past twenty years, and facing a life in hiding, Miranda struggles to find her place in the galaxy. Further compounded by a past that refuses to let go. A story based around what Miranda got up to after Mass Effect 2 and during Mass Effect 3, written from a first-person perspective.

Mass Effect: Infinite Regress by CountingMagpies reviews
Novelisation of the Mass Effect trilogy, Part 1 of 3. It takes more than one person to save the galaxy, but it only takes one person to start a revolution. Told from the perspectives of Bioware's characters. Not strictly canon. Will feature a Liara romance somewhere down the line. Rated M for language, violence and adult themes.

Flotsam by thedeadflag reviews
A pre-ME1 backstory of A. Shepard's life as a young emaciated orphan, navigating the streets of an Earth metropolis. Rated M because it gets pretty violent. I'm also kind of bad at summaries. Now complete, with a sequel Feathers published.

Stuck in the Middle reviews
ME3 AU, following on from Three Small Words. Should Shepard really trust Miranda Lawson? He loves her - but trusting her is a different question. Just trying to protect her from the people on his side could cost Shepard everything. All copy-rights, etc still belong with Bioware. Rated M for language, blood & violence (no 'snuggles' so far folks) MShep/Miranda (eventually/maybe)

Unquiet Night
After the Suicide Mission, Shepard travels to Illium - and has a dream. Nothing really explicit. Tried to write this without giving too many identifying attributes to Shepard (hence both Shepard tags)

A Beach
A short scene with a Shepard on the beach with their LI, intentionally vague on who that is. Feel free to imagine your own pairing. No mature content. A daft idea inspired by something lillitheris(BSN)/awska(FF) once posted on another forum and I need practice on romantic/fluffy writing. Not related to my other scribbles.

Three Small Words reviews
Isn't it amazing how three small words can change a relationship? An alternative ending to Mass Effect 2. Featuring Shepard, Miranda and Jack. Rated M for language (swearing) and because it's my first piece so I'm erring on the side of caution.
