Author has written 25 stories for Bones.

About Me: As my user name suggests, I write with a passion for the biological and physical sciences yet I also love relationships and romance. The image I selected for my avatar is an artistic rendering of a covalent bond between atoms. It's a chemistry thing, but I think it's a beautiful natural illustration of how different people--or elements--can complement and complete each other. My influences include science (obviously), but also classic literature, logic and literary analysis. I tend to write in rhyme and use a lot of alliteration. Like I did just now... :P

But that's enough about me. I presume you went to the trouble of clicking on my profile because you're looking for something else to read. ;)

Favorites!

Let me say that the stories favorited below are by no means the "only" great stories out there, but each one of them (especially the older ones) is a sampling from the best Bones FanFiction writers I've come across. Every story below has made me, laugh, cry, (sometimes both at the same time), think hard, change my perspective, or go 'Whoa! I never thought of that...' Instead of picking stories just for me, I've selected these stories for other Bones fans who love to read. Hopefully you'll plunge into those other authors' pages and enjoy the wealth of talent those stories hint at.

And hey, while you're at it, go ahead and give those stories a review once you've read them. Getting a complimentary note on a story they wrote years ago might just make someone's day.

Happy reading!

(PS: Because I've been asked, "Chem" is a nom de plum, short for 'chemistry.' I'm not a guy, I'm just keeping my real name private.)

Standard Disclaimer: I write fan fiction, lovingly borrowing the characters, and sometimes the plot and dialogue of others, to explore different themes and ideas that appear in the original show. No infringement is intended, and I do not profit in any material way from these stories.

The Mixed Tape by casket4mytears reviews
"Every couple has a song." Hot Blooded has been their song for seven years, but Seeley Booth has an extensive music collection. What other high notes has their relationship hit along the way? Canon pairings, set pre-8x15 with flash-forward glimpses. MOST chapters rated T, but rated M for a lotta booze, a little language, a dash of violence and a touch of sexuality.
