Author has written 29 stories for Quantum Leap. I began writing in early 2002 and originally I wrote in The Sentinel fandom. None of those stories are currently posted anywhere, however. I took a hiatus from writing for about 2 years before picking it up again in late 2005. I adore Quantum Leap and concentrate my writing there. In addition to writing stories dealing with "leaps" I've also created a series of prequel stories that I've been enjoying writing. Additionally, I've also embarked on some AU writing that differs from the established canon of Quantum Leap. Despite my attempts at humerous, light-hearted stories, it seems I've yet to break completely free from the angst genre - though I do try. One of the things that can motivate me to work work more frequently is feedback. Feedback is like manna in the desert for the writer. Whether it's feedback telling me the reader likes something or suggesting ways to improve it, I value each piece I get and it's one of the motivating factors in my writing. The other motivating factor is that I simply enjoy weaving tales. I have quite a few stories ideas in progress. You can find sneak peaks of some of them on fanfiction page of my website. In late 2006 I formed a writing partnership with asearcher and together we comprise the pen name QLTales. Our first joint story, "Fall To Earth" premiered in Fall 2006. Since then, we've completed five other stories and are hard at work on several more. Most of the stories written under the QLTales pen name fit into the series of pre-leap stories I've written on my own. The chronological order for the stories in the series is: It’s Beginning to Look A Lot Like Looking For Christmas (by QLTales) Foundations of Trust (by QLTales) Mysterious Actions (by QL Tales) Catch and Release (in progress - by QLTales Heart of the Matter (in progress - by QL Tales) The Link (in progress - by QL Tales) | |||||||||||||
