More Than MiSTings

I think I may have mentioned in a few places that I've written fan fiction outside of Mystery Science Theater style stuff, but I keep forgetting to tell people where to find it


Since I was having trouble sleeping after I set my Hints and Pointers post to, well, autopost, I got to thinking about other ideas I should at least write down somewhere to maybe work with later, and something occurred to me. Like I said above the jump, I'm pretty sure that I've mentioned around that I do fan fiction beyond just the occasional MiSTing here and there, like what I've been slowly, especially of late, but steadily posting here. Thing is, I'm pretty sure it's been a good while since I've shared links to any of those places, and worse yet, I'm just as sure I've never shared them here. Or if I have, it's been long enough ago that I can't remember how long it's been.


With that in mind, it's probably time I got around to remedying that. This certainly won't be a complete list because, well, I've been at this for long enough that more than a few of the places I've posted stuff to have gone down for good and I can no longer remember the names to them to look them up on places like the Internet Archive, and there's at least one I'm going to have to do a little work on before I go ahead with sharing. That's something that'll have to wait until I'm not suffering from partially caffeine induced insomnia, though.


We'll start off with my Fanfiction Dot Net listing. This is probably the most complete listing of what I've done over the years, going all the way back to some things I originally posted to the America Online cartoons forum in the summer of 1995, if memory serves. Notably, there are quite a lot of crossovers in there because that's sort of where I wound up going with things. There's also a couple abandoned stories in there because I ran out of time and interest to keep up with those particular stories, and chances are, I'll never get back to them.


There's also my Archive Of Our Own listing, which is somewhat more curated. I'm not sure I'd go so far as to call this my best work, but it is what I thought was worth moving over from FFN, at least. Even though I'm putting this one second, it's the one I'm more likely to share around when new stuff goes up, simply because it's where the stuff I'm proudest of is.


Lastly, for now, anyway, is a writing folder on DeviantArt I only just recently made to sort things into so that people could find the things I didn't know where else to put without having to dig through 17 years worth of other crap to get to it. This is also something that's likely to be updated in the near future because there's something I've been meaning to get shared there so that it's got a better home than here on the blog.


But that's one of a couple things that's going to have to wait until I've gotten a little sleep, because I'm coming up on a place where I think I can actually do that now. So, until next time, I'll see you when I see you.
