I have no idea how I stumbled across fan fiction. I just read some on the net and I saw they were really good.

Writing them was the same thing, I just wanted to dabble in it myself

I found amazing BtVS Yahoo Groups before I read any fanfiction & from there my obsession just spiralled Writing it just seemed like the natural progression, but reading back on the earliest fanfics I cringe at just how bad they were - especially as I had the nerve to post them unbeated and rushed out Does anybody on the board still have their first fanfic? I think we should post them!

I couldn't have it out there & know about it I think I'd have to remove them just because they were so badly written - I had no clue about grammar, punctuation, anything!

for me it wasn't grammar or punctuation...it was just a really cheesy plotline.

I've never seen Felicity - I was a BtVS girl growing up, so pretty much missed out on any other tv show around that time

BtVS started when I was in hs... and I saw felicity when I was in college. But, I can't write action so I only read BtVS fanfic

me, i started getting obssess with beverly hills and charmed... i wanna see more of it..and what better way to satify my cravings?--read fan fics..

i went to fanfiction.net and read every single story they have for charmed and 90210... or atleast every story that includes brenda and prue.. but i still read fic even if there's no brenda and prue depending on the story lines...


then when i read everything else, i was like..."maybe i could do my own fic.." then i started typing and before i knew it i have 17 chapters for my 1st story in one writting!!!

i have 6 stories now for both charmed and BH, i started writting last march i think..

but sadly i wasnt updating any of it lately for i have been so busy with other things...

I think I started writing/reading fanfiction when 2Ge+her was on MTV. I think. The fic was terrible, but I loved having another world for it. It was just really fun and I had made some friends through it and they did it as well. I remember that a lot of our fics included older versions of us interacting with the guys and the occasional RPF with us included as well. I don't think I ever finished one, though. I think I was about 13 at the time.

My first serious fandom to write for was after the second season of Veronica Mars. I haven't written anything in a while for it, but I'm trying to adopt some new fandoms to be active in.

My first fic was chapter 1 of the series I'm still working on... 9 months later

It was for a milestone thread. I remember talking to another poster on that thread on msn on the night of the milestone when it hit me that people would be reading my story! I was stunned when I had comments on LJ! Positive comments! I think she was as excited as I was!

It was probably around 2000 and my first attempts at fanfic and discovering it were in BtVS, Its now 8 years and MANY MANY fandoms later and I havent looked back.

Although I still do get odd looks from people who dont know about it and I explain that it IS becoming more norm than it used to!
