Title: Just Causes

Fandom: Final Fantasy X

Rating: M

Genre(s): Action/Drama

Summary: Felix DiMarco isn't a good man. Years of hard combat have left him as callous shell. When an accident shoves him into an embattled new world, can he find a cause there worth defending? Or will the shattered pieces of himself drift even further apart?

Link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3742448/1/Just_Causes

Not your typical "Fallen into Spira" fic. Not to toot my own horn, but I think this kinda backhands the average writing for the fandom, both in characters, maturity of plot, and... Hell, you'll see what I mean. First chapter is a little... eh, and it's being rewritten again. Gets better the more current the update. Waiting on Chapter V from my beta.

The Can We Talk? Writing Challenge #1: I'll SUE you! http://www.fanfiction.net/topic/29692/3597435/1/

This is a list of criteria I use to determine whether or not an OC (original character) is a Sue or Stu:

Does your character

i. come from your world

ii. talk and act like a girl from your world, even if she has landed in a male body

iii. do things you would ideally do or have things you would ideally have, such as special powers/remarkable beauty/attractiveness or appeal to canon characters/accident prone/tragic past or victim experience/possession of desirable object/relationship to or with canon characters/join the fellowship or other canon group and affect their lives. Sometimes these are inverted as Evil Sues

iv. do things (usually sexual) to or receive sexual or other things/experiences from canon characters according to your personal desires or fantasies (this can be perverse e.g abuse fics)

v. have an attitude that mirrors your own regarding politics, morality, religion, sociology, etc.

The challenge: to write a story with these attributes in it that either PWNs the list or proves that there are exceptions to the rule (list).

Points are given for:

*Spelling, grammar and punctuation, format and presentation

*Knowledge of canon (the "universe" in which your story is set)

*Character development (use Maiafay's thread to help you to build your character)

*The number of attributes in the list that you use

All fandoms are welcome. All stories must have a start date of no earlier than tonight. Judging will be done via a poll. Please post your intention to enter here: http://www.fanfiction.net/topic/29692/3597435/1/. Closing date for this is midnight PST on 31st January 2008.

PhantomInvader
15 Reasons [Danny Phantom]

Summary: There are 15 Reasons why I should hate him, and yet no way to explain why I don't.

An AU story that has been a challenge for me to write, in this Danny and Sam hate each other, with Sam being relatively the same and Danny being a bit...insane. It's been hard for me because I changed all the characters in at least ONE way, and no one seems to be reading the part where I said "AU" and they're on my case. I have made some mistakes though, continuity and shit.

Casa Bonita Rocks My Socks
I haven't done my bit of shamless self-promoting........

Mistletoe

Summary: Massie and Chris share a private moment at the Riveras' christmas party. Writen for the awesome DC as part of the secret santa Clqiue fic exchange.

Grenadine

My first Cartoon X-overs fic, inspired by the movie Waitress. Lilo, tired of her monotonous job as a bartender spends her time trying to avoid her hapless boyfriend Chester. When a heartbroken Stan ends up at the bar, sparks fly......

Who said that Popularity is Overrated?

Yeah. The totally cliche Stan and Kyle love triangle with a twist. Lola Manodval is pretty much invisble. The one time Kyle notices her, he ends up with Rebecca Cotswold. Out of desperation, she turns to an unlikely source in the hopes that if she changes her outside appearance, Kyle will notice her and fall in love. Of course, she ended up attracting the wrong guy.......Not another Style fic. ;)

I'm new here and just want more feedback on my growing fic. Honestly, I'm real self conscious about sharing my writing and I hope that by posting here, it would help me out of my shell a bit. I just have one so here it is...

Genre: Fantasy

I'm not afraid of self-promotion so here it goes.

I have eight complete stories posted in various states of edited-ness.

Lord of the Rings

Peredhel

This is my attempt to do some character development on Tolkien's elves. I've also done my best to include believable OCs, a three-dimensional Haldir and Twins who are both prankish and in pain. Some people think I succeeded. You be the judge. Novel-length.

Immortal Tears

Elves die too, and sometimes, mortals bear witness. Eomer has his first glimpse of elves. 5,000 words.

Chronicles of Riddick (b/c for some reason I like these movies)

The Purifier

Very violent tale of why the Purifier turned on the Lord Marshal. It needs editing and is the first long fic I ever wrote. Practically every character is an OC (even the canon ones) since the film does such a piss poor job at developing them - that's why I wrote this. Novella length.

Envy

Riddick wishing he was someone else.

Star Trek

A Question, Answered

TNG: Because I loved Wesley Crusher when I was a kid. Short.

The Promise

DS9: Because I'm obsessed with Vulcans and I wanted to write an episode of the show. Novella length.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer

Angels Weep

For my favorite character: Drusilla.

Harry Potter

Two Monsters

I love Snape and Lupin. They are like two sides of the same coin.

Feel free to let me know what you think. :) Epi

What's life like without a bit of shameless self-promotion?

Along Came Riddle

Minerva is failing Potions and now the only way Slughorn will allow her to pass his class is getting tutored by Tom Riddle. Pissed emotions, snarky remarks, sexual tension, and chaos ensue. And it’s going to be one hell of a year for the both of them.

Gloria Victis

Wand raised at her neck, Hermione Granger expected to die on the battlefield that day. Due to perplexing outcomes, she was instead handed faded work robes, branded on her right hand, and given a sentence to serve under the Dark Lord.

Hi there.

I'm still a newbie to FFic and have no qualms in shamelessly plugging my first fic. :) It's based on the novel by Dianne Wynne Jones and the Hayao Miyazaki animated masterpiece 'Howl's Moving Castle' (HMC).

I refer to it as 'The Dusk', and the score from the movie was what inspired join FFic and write the story.

There are only three chapters left before I complete the fic, that was and still is a labour of love. It's a dark look at Howls return from death and I've used a little Greek mythology in the fic. I wanted to try something darker for the HMC Fandom, even though there are some beautifully written and sweet stories posted a while back.

Ok. I'll shut up now. If you should read it, I especially appreciate concrits.

Bye. (66)v

Oh, an opportunity for shameles self-promotion? That sounds good to me!

I do have a story that is my pride and joy, because

a) it was a very difficult project: A Vetinari/OC romance and at the same time a Discworld/Jane Austen crossover. Making this credible and doing justice to both authors was no mean feat.

b) it is 40000+ words long and has now been revised, edited and expanded at least four times, so I have spent a lot of time and effort on it.

c) I felt obliged to make it at least marginally humourous, and since that doesn't come easy to me, I am rather proud of the few good jokes I managed to spawn.

d) I have woven into it a lot of cross references, leitmotifs and other little subtleties that probably not many readers will notice, but that delight me.

e) it was the first piece of fiction I've written in English; I felt that was an achievement for me.

So, if anybody would like to have a look at it, this is it:

How exactly is this different from "whoring for reviews"?

LOL.

The difference is review whores post rants at the end of each chapter saying they will never, ever, ever post another chapter until they get 75 reviews. Here you are simply offering your stories up to the masses who may or may not be interested in taking a look.

Well, I post in relatively small sections- one of which gets spamfic on an almost daily basis. Argh.

We Will Rock You: The Novelization Fandom: We Will Rock You (although, as it's a novelization of a musical, you really don't need to have seen it.)

Summary: In 300 years, individuality has been eradicated from Earth, now called Planet Mall due to the materialistic culture. In an effort to weed out subversion, music has been banned. A teenage boy, gifted with a sort of "second hearing", if you will, goes on a journey to restore music to the world. Only problem: musical instruments no longer exist. Contains more than what is just in the musical.

I worked super hard on this and searched through it looking for any typos that I know about. Even now I keep looking through it, hoping to make it as presentable as I can.

Please take some time to look over it. *Bows*

Well I can't believe I'm actually posting but please take some time to look over it. A lot of action and I'm currently trying to shimmy in some romance. If I finish it there will be a twist that I hope won't be too obvious... -_-

But i posted this mostly for reviews because with reviews I will feel more entitled to finish this fic! I get tired of my stories very easily so please post some (nice) reviews so I can finish it. Please do not flame me, I am very self-conscious! :D

(can someone please explain what a con-crit is please? seems to be helpful)

Con-crit = Constructive criticism

But i posted this mostly for reviews because with reviews I will feel more entitled to finish this fic! I get tired of my stories very easily so please post some (nice) reviews so I can finish it. Please do not flame me, I am very self-conscious! :D

If you want a constructive critique of your story, we have a thread for that purpose, you should ask there. Understand that we will be constructive, which means you may not like all that is said, but it will not be a flame. You should write and post stories because you wish to tell a story and receive feedback about what worked and what didn't work with your effort, not because you simply want nice reviews. I'm sure you didn't mean "entitled to finish", everyone who writes is entitled to finish. You are looking for the word "motivated", receiving reviews will make you feel more motivated to finish your story.

Yes exactly! Motivated! OK thanks for that

And yeah, sorry I'm not expressing myself clearly, I didn't exactly mean nice e.g. Great job with the story! But yes, just no flames. I will try to express myself more clearly next time. Some con-crit would be great actually!
