First, thank y'all for sticking with me through it all. I've had a blast writing these and love reading your comments. I know this is technically a oneshot but I love giving y'all previews of what I have in store. Here we go:
Philosophy
I'm baaaaaaak! and crazier than ever, apparently.
For my next attempt at writing something other people may enjoy reading I'm taking on a monumental challenge. You see, friends, I love a challenge and writing fanfic has been my lifeblood these last few months. First, by reading what other people think about some of my favorite characters and then coming up with something unique and interesting for others to read. I can't help it, I'm addicted. I may start a support group.
Now, back to my story. This may be confusing but stick with me. Have you ever seen the TV show "Who's Line is it, Anyways?" remember the segment "Scenes from a hat"? That segment is the inspiration for my new story. If you haven't seen it the idea is to take a random idea from a hat of suggestions and hear the improv actors give their unique spin on it. Everyone contributes something different about the same topic. It may be easier to imagine this story as '24' where you see several different sides of a story, often times events taking place simultaneously.
So, I'm writing this story about life in Washington D.C. and the work of the FBI and Jeffersonian Institute in catching a serial killer. The story is secondary to the storytelling, however. First, we'll see how the story plays out in the eyes of Dr. Zack Addy. Second, I'll explore the same case through the eyes of Booth and Brennan. And lastly, I'll tell the story through the eyes of a rookie FBI agent assigned to work with Dr. Addy (much in the way Booth works with Brennan) Ms. Veronica Mars. Peripheral characters will be used in various capacities and mentioned by one of my main characters: Booth, Brennan, Zack or Veronica. We won't have full access to everyone's thoughts though since I've already got enough voices in my head.
Originally I wanted to post this as three seperate stories but I think it would be really difficult to post the stories under different titles and make you switch back and forth so often. The three stories will cover roughly the same events but will contain different viewpoints, character thoughts, titles and clues to the case. Some of the dialogue will be the same, but not all. Each chapter will be posted separately (Chapter 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, etc) and will be posted under one common title on the Bones forum
I plan on writing each chapter together and posting them on successive days. Each time around I'll post the viewpoints in a different order. Until it become mathematically necessary to repeat a pattern. Don't ask me when that will be, I suck at math. I can't promise how quickly I'll post each triplet but as often as I can write and my beta can do her thing. Keep in mind I'm basically writing each chapter 3 times, without saying the same things again and again-did I mention I was crazy?
One last thing, I'll post a short back-story before the first chapters so you know where each of the characters is coming from/where they are in life, etc. It would probably be good for you to peruse my other Bones stories since I'm including a lot of the events that happened there.
Wish me luck. Recommend me to a good shrink. Thank my beta for keeping me grammatically correct.
