This is a long-term project, a story I'm slowly crafting. I wanted to give you a glimpse of the backstory I've been building. Some aspects are still evolving, and others may not even make the final cut. Joe Boyd is not an original character and I'm particularly focusing on the events that transpired between series 1 and 4

Set after the episode "Substitute". Eve is trying to cope with what happened to Stefan, and someone - somebody - takes it upon themselves to care for her. Thank you, once again, for the beta, TheDarkBasement! :D

What if the injection Linda had given Boyd was meant for Grace?

Being afraid of the dark may be inconvenient. Especially when you are kidnapped and kept in a dark room. How would Grace keep her panic at bay? Thanks once more, TheDarkBasement, for the Beta-read :D

Not part of the timeline I'm working on. Just a short story between two people who end up becoming great friends. A little bit of Boyd too in the end.

Set after "Waterloo". Boyd has difficulties letting go of his need to watch and protect Grace, even though they are now both retired and living seperat lives. Will a relationship be in the cards for them? Thank you once again, TheDarkBasement, for yet another Beta-read :D xx

Veronica (Ronnie) Diamond finds herself alone in this Dead world after the dead start walking, that is until she finds friends in unlikely places...

Boyd and Grace have been together for a couple of months, and it seems to be trouble in paradise... at least for one of them... Just a little fluff. Thanks again, TheDarkBasement, for the Beta! :D

Poems inspired by the characters and events of Waking the Dead. All the characters and events belong to the BBC.

"You do bring me to the nicest places," Grace teases as they survey the concrete and the gloom. An afternoon exploration leads to near disaster and reflection for Boyd. Happy Birthday Joodiff! xxx

It happens in a second. One moment he's blissfully asleep, the next he's awake. Birthday present for Joodiff

It's the first Christmas since the Nicholson debacle and the disbanding of the CCU, and Grace should be happy... shouldn't she? Complete. Enjoy!

It's late Friday afternoon close to Christmas. Eve and Grace are sharing a bottle of red wine. Merry Christmas 2023

It s close to Christmas and Grace has injured her hand. Boyd doens t think she should be alone at Christmas. Merry Christmas, everyone! Happy holidays! Hope Santa brings you what you wished for! :D Thank you, TheDarkBasement, for beta! :D

Staring at the heap of green slime on the desk in front of her, Grace finds her normal eloquence deserts her... Birthday present for Rapunzle1980

Grace comes to work and Boyd gives her a cold shoulder. Grace has no idea why. Could it have something to do with a certain Mr Clooney? Yet again, thanks TheDarkBasement for Beta the story! :D For missDuncan - because dreams can give ideas for stories like this one!

Boyd isn't angry. Grace can't cope with it. Birthday present for Scription Addict. Complete. Enjoy!

What happened after Grace and Boyd s argument in "Double Bind", and after the case was solved? Contains swearing and some other bad language. Thank yet again to TheDarkBasement for Beta the story :D

For those who have read my previous story "Our Thoughts", this is an updated version of it. What could have been going on through their minds after the argument they'd had? Would this be what was heard? Based on Series 6 Episode 'Double Bind'.

A series of short stories centred around all the times Grace's life was in danger. The unspoken words, the unseen scenes.

An add-on scene before Boyd visits Grace in hospital. What Eve might have told Boyd when he finds out the reason why Grace hasn't been returning his phone calls. Series 8 Episode 'Endgame'.

Grace s daughter finds herself in trouble. Who comes to the rescue? Thanks yet again for the Beta, TheDarkBasement :D
