DISCLAIMER FOR ALL STORIES: I don't own Transformers, just borrow them to play in the sandbox.

I'm new to the TF Universe (as of May 2008), although I vaguely remember watching the G1 cartoons in the '80s. I have enjoyed reading the many stories on FF and Transfiction and am constantly amazed at the wonderful and talented authors who share their work. Many of the stories touched me deeply and inspired me to try and write some stories of my own. I hope you enjoy them, and I especially hope that you take the time to review them to help me become a better writer.

My stories are post-2007 Movie, AU, and probably run right off the cliff with that concept at times. Imagine my surprise when I found out there is no single canon or continuity for TFs, but a vast Multiverse instead (see Notable below). What a terrific sandbox to play in! :)

Notable

"More so than most science-fiction franchises, Transformers has been, from the very start, a collection of many varied continuities... There is a subjective component to all of this, and each fan decides for themselves how "fine-grained" they want their own personal list of continuities to be. Ultimately, it could be argued that almost every story exists in its own exclusive continuity, even different stories that were clearly intended to be set in the same universe... The most inclusive perspective is to consider all canonical Transformers stories as existing within a multiverse which contains countless—perhaps infinite—alternate universes."

First of all, thank you to those who kindly took the time to review my stories. I appreciate the feedback! I'm also amazed at the number of visitors still finding them; I know it's been a while since I posted. I've been kept pretty busy with real life, but I am working on a new, multi-chaptered Transformers fic, called A Universal Concept, which has somehow managed to work its way from a single pairing to multiple pairings, and morph from its light humorous beginnings all the way over into angst and darkness. So a little something for everyone I hope.

It's a mix of 2007 movie, G-1, some other continuities probably, and some of my own imagining. Just having fun with it. :D Now, if I can just get the damn thing done, lol. This is the largest piece of writing I've ever attempted, but with any luck I can start posting in the near future. Thanks again for the reviews, the favs, and stopping by to visit!

Update 7/9/09

Well, I finally started posting my first ever multi-chaptered fanfic. It is a WIP (work in progress), but my two betas, the lovely Lady Dragon2 and LB82 insisted that going ahead and posting it would help me focus on what I still needed to get done. They were absolutely right, because quite honestly, I could have kept writing on this fic until I croaked without ever getting finished, lol.

To everyone who has reviewed, fav'd and alerted this story, a million thank you's!

Update 12/4/09

Chapter 5 of AUC is up, and is also now being posted on my LJ page. Many thanks to Lady Dragon2 for getting it up for me. Chapters 6 and 7 are in the works, but we're heading into the busy holiday season now, and I've also been very sick, so my apologies for irregular updates and thank you so much for sticking with my story.

I'm deeply grateful for the continued encouraging reviews, faves and alerts for AUC. They keep me going, most definitely. You all are an inspiration, thank you! ;)

Update 12/29/09

FanFiction is declining to send me any alerts or notices whatsoever, but I checked and AUC Chapter 6 is now up. As mentioned before, I've been very sick and I'm utterly sick of being sick and tired all the time, but I think I'm over the worst, and hopefully things will begin to look up. I'm so very sorry if I haven't responded to your review and thanked you for taking the time. Please know that I read each one and I really appreciate everyone who gives me feedback. Lady Dragon2 and I have traded chapters and we're betaing each other's chapter 7's now. Go give her excellent fic, Crackalackalicious, some love! She has many other wonderful fics too; check 'em out! Much love to everyone who has shown so much love for AUC, and I hope your holidays are truly wonderful. See you in the New Year! Hugs! ;)

Update 1/29/10

Again, my deepest apologies for the slow updates. My health is slowly improving, but slow would be the operative word there too. I'm still looking at additional surgery in the new year, so I'm not quite out of the woods yet. I thank everyone who has stopped by to fave, alert and review AUC. You keep my spirits up, and I'll do my best to keep the updates coming. ;)
