Topic: Shameless Self-Promotion Thread
We have a recs thread for other people's stories that you all recommend, but I thought in all fairness, if you would like to promote your own work, go ahead and link it here. You don't have to be looking for con-crit, but maybe you just want any feedback or would just like to advertise.

Please provide the name, link, fandom, and anything else you'd like (genre, small summary, etc.) for your stuff. If you want to advertise new stories, old stories, or even new chapters, feel free. :)

Hello Mate,

what a great thread!! Do I dare? Okay then, I'm particularly proud of The Turning of Angwe, my Balrog story. It's got a nifty little prequel too, The Building of Celebdil. I might do some more Angwe stories - there's definitely one about Artire in the pipeline. Both of these are based on Tolkien's Lord of the Rings/Silmarillion works.

That's my forum. It discusses the issue, currently a hot topic in its section: the overuse of Disney 'parodies' (if you could call them that) in the Cartoon X-overs section. And then I threw in a "Writing Tips" for no real reason.

And now for my actual writing!

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3063855/1/ is my fic, "The Betrayal" (I know, real original title, right?). It's in the "Invader Zim" section. It's one of my earliest fics... so it may not be all that good... but I worked pretty hard on it. It's actually my co-writer's storyboard, I just put it into words for him. It's a good storyboard. He didn't have an account here yet but wanted to get it out of his system. :) If you like it and want to check out the sequel and all the other installments (fourth due out not too far from now), go to avatarjk137, his profile. NOW he has an account. ;) It's just mostly action.

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3099058/2/ is my first Cartoon X-overs fic, "Who Wants To Stay Sane?", and again, one of my earlier fics. It has ten different cartoons in it, in a reality show style fic where different cartoon characters have to live together in a house (ew, I know). It's just humor, but I try not to make it crappily written. I pride myself in putting effort into the writing itself as well as the humor in most of my humorous fics.

And by the way, I put the link for chapter 2 up because the first chapter is just a characters list and is therefore mostly pointless, except for the author's note.

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3555292/1/ My first "Heroes" fic, "Truths of a Craver". It's done in that weird style of oneshot I like, the "Twenty Truths" style. It's a Sylar fic. I would say it's half humor, half angst. So it's dark and light at the same time. It's one of my personal favorites.

Uh, I'll put more up later. I think that's enough for now.

"Dawn of the Fangirls"

Secton: Naruto

Genre: Horror/Comedy

Plot: Fangirls attack en masse. Surviving anime guys hide in a mall. Chaos ensues as they try to kill the fangirls and each other in order to survive.

Its the 2nd part to the series. I'll link the 1st one later.

Oh good, I love these me, me, me, threads, lol.

I enjoy horror games and all the messed up psychological fun that comes along with those, and I like making epics...

Stories:

Sae's Requiem

Blood Ties

Dark Ashes of the Phoenix

Section: Games: Resident Evil, Fatal Frame and Silent Hill

Genre: Horror/Angst, Horror/Drama, Horror/Supernatural

Summaries: The first is a one shot, and you really don't have to have knowledge of the game to read; the second you don't either, (at least I tried to make it that way) you can venture into that fic and still understand what's going on. The last is the second part of the series, but it's superior to the first in terms of prose. You have to have knowledge of Resident Evil to read, but I've been told by people who HAVEN'T played the games, that it's a good fic and it made them go buy the game, lol.

I write both slash and het, and both feature prominently in my work. I try to make it tasteful, and keep my males non-feminine. I personally can't stand it when men are girly to the point of OOC. Most readers say Blood Ties scares them, so if you can't stand freaky dollies, then avoid that one.

The Swedish Mystery
Oh here it goes... my first story ever. I'm currently struggling with the last chapter.

The Curse of Kalla Bong

Category: Charmed

Genre: Drama/Humor

Rated: M

Summary: Set after season seven. The Elders discover that Paige might not be their real sister and The Charmed Ones are falling apart. Just when they need each other the most.

The Ruins of Oz: starring Samurai Jack

Samurai Jack is betrayed and is sent to what used to be the Land of Oz. It's up to him and some familiar faces to return him back to his world.

Just posted up Chapter Six not too long ago. Action/Adventure.

Reviews would be lovely, plus I'd like some feedback for the fighting scenes I wrote.

Bloody Mibu

I thought that this story is one of my better works. Despite a lot of errors (grammar ones mostly) in the beginning, I'm slowly starting to improve.

It's a part of the Naruto fandom with a semi-crossover with Samurai Deeper Kyo.

Summary:[AU] At a young age several men attacked Naruto, but using the Kyuubi's powers Naruto killed them. Three people brought him to the Lotus Lands intent on getting another ally. Naruto goes back to Konoha four years later. New adventures await Naruto.

F/R, you are lucky it's my birthday, otherwise I'd have a few things to say to you...anyway, I'm going to advertise some fics that aren't mine, but are good.

In the InuYasha fandom:

Teaching Rin, by Avommalay-Ariemay...http://www.fanfiction.net/s/1950935/1/

Living for Love, by meangenius...http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2137941/1/

I just thought I'd advertise them...Teaching Rin is complete and I think Living for Love is too. They are both Sesshomaru/OC pairings, so yeah...

I got an idea for a Resident Evil Story.

A task force of Army Rangers is sent to the Los Carlos research facility to investigate reports of a disturbance.

Umbrella spies developed a Las Plagus parasite and spread it through the facility.

When the army rangers arrive they are shot down by RPG fire and retreat further into the facility.

But a Predator stalks the rangers and hunts both them and the survivors.

Does it have potential?

I'm not really good with self-promotion, but hey...

I've been writing a lot of character studies at the moment, and I think my writing has vastly matured over the past few months (thanks to university), so I'm recommending those... unfortunately I'm technologically illitirate so can't link them- you'll have to visit my profile to read them.

'Little Match Girl', fandom 'Chicago'.

Short study focusing on the character Liz, or 'Pop' if you prefer the 'Cell Block Tango' identification. I think my use of characterisation improved here. I build on Liz's characterisation in another Chicago fic, 'Talk' (it's slash), but that fic needs some improvement.

'Music From A Farther Room', fandom 'Harry Potter'

Character study of Luna Lovegood. Personally I think it's one of the best things I've written.

'Brave New World', fandom 'Moulin Rouge'

World War I fic, and again more of a character of situation study. Not my best, but I enjoyed writing the style I used for this one.

Incidentally, Cicero Lipshitz, I love your icon!

This is a spoof I just finished writing. Please check for grammar errors and point them out (or I could get a writing for dummies book).

I have two stories for the game Beyond Good and Evil. One is a short oneshot, the other is a full-length novel in progress. The latter is better than at least 99% of the waste on this site, so if you need something to read head over and give it a whirl. I'm writing to flex my writing muscles, so any concrit would be well received.

I'd like some honest thought on the two poems I wrote.

Fairly ridiculous poem about, well, losing an eye.

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3720598/1/The_Downtown_City

More serious poem which involves a little more imagery than the first.

(The formatting is atrocious on both -- I plan to fix this.)

This is a project I started in January, for the Grey's Anatomy fandom. I found myself writing a lot of drabbles, vignettes and one-shots, and decided to group them together in one place as a collection of standalone stories. I admit that some are not my best writing as they were written quickly, but I also feel that some I consider accomplishments in my writing.

This next one is for the Hairspray fandom, which I've just gotten into. If you haven't seen the movie or musical, you might be confused reading this particular story. This is a lighter story; I haven't delved into the angsty scenes I have planned quite yet, but I'd honestly like some feedback specifically on the quality of writing rather than just the plot. Because it's set within the musical, I'm still stuck following some of the script.

Hermes’s Scarlet Trinket

Category: Miscellaneous- Buffy the Vampire Crossovers

(Buffy the Vampire Slayer/Pirates of the Caribbean)

Genre: Action/Adventure/Crime

Summary When Dawns Summers dives into a portal she is flung into a world where deceit, betrayal and deadly peril lurk around every corner. Disguised as a lowly urchin boy, she goes on an epic adventure thieving and lying her way across the Caribbean Sea.

This is a new story and has Three chapters posted so far, but it will be updated every Wednesday. I’m promoting my story because I am a Business student, and therefore believe in promoting things.

If you like Pirates of the Caribbean, or Buffy the Vampire Slayer, come and read! But even if you don’t, you still might enjoy it. You don’t need a great knowledge of either worlds to understand this story, but a little knowledge might help you to understand some of the jokes.
