OFFICIAL Opening DAY

I wanted to clear up some questions and timeline for those not sure if they want to join yet! First, this is a Bang, so Authors will be going first! -That being said we are allowing Artists to submit if they like some inspiration pics to authors who finish early! Second, this theme is fairly open to interpretation; you are not expected or required to do Grimm's Fairy Tales. They may be the most popularly known ones, but that does not make them the only ones. Modern setting is not banned, it just has to feature elements of a Fairy Tale. For the purposes of this Bang, A fairy tale is a story that belongs to the folklore genre. Such stories typically feature magic, enchantments, and mythical or fanciful beings. Myths, Folklores, and Legends are allowed to be adapted, but anything relating to a current religion people follow or important folkloric figures SHOULD be treated with respect when adapting! So stories relating to the Greek, Roman, and Norse pantheons, for instance, are allowed, as well as folklore figures like Robin Hood or Mulan as examples. Original but on-theme stories are also allowed, as long as they feel and have relevant Fairy Tale aspects.

Updated from original posting.

I thought I would do a post of all the writing projects I have on the  go, that you can’t see yet as I don’t like to upload unless I’m a fair  way in, or I’ve finished them.

Here goes….

Star Wars:

Shimmer Through the Woods: Part 26 is online, I have written Part 28, part way through Part 27, with another two to go, as I did have an idea about how to shorten the story further just to get it done.

The Good Travelers: Part 1 was posted for the Obidala  Valentine Convention in 2014. Eight more parts have been written, the  end is nowhere in sight. Obi-Wan and Padmé travel back in time to  Episode I. I’m contemplating rewriting this to exclude Anakin as there are some idiots on ff.net who think its within their rights to post troll guest reviews because I trash him. He’s not a saint, so force knows why they treat him so.

Plot 8/untitled Obidala & Post Original Trilogy story:  This is probably not that far from being finished, but needs a bit of  time to be done. Astonishingly it was one of the first star wars fics that  I  wrote. Its set after ROTJ, when the New Republic opens negotiations with  Naboo. Whilst visiting Naboo, Luke Skywalker and Mara Jade discover a  prison whose inhabitants will rewrite history.

The Scarlet Jedi: Very much still an idea at present inspired by The Scarlet Pimpernel by Baronness Orczy.

Bladed Wings Upon a Star: This is still in development, but  its a time travel story that I fancy exploring, when I have the time. It  brings Obi-Wan from ROTS into AOTC and Qui-Gon from before he chose  Obi-Wan as his padawan into AOTC. I have about four parts written so  far. Again I might see if I can ignore Anakin in this as well.

Obidala Crossover with a Discovery of Witches:  first chapter  written, second in progress.  No Vampire or Witch element, but the main  plot around Ashmole 782 transported into a star wars universe.

Jane Austen:

Unititled: (This was influenced by Matthew Goode playing Wickham in Death Comes to Pemberley.) When Darcy returns to Pemberley, he reevaluates his relationship with Elizabeth, Georgiana and Wickham, who rescues Lydia Bennet in Brighton, which leads to her traumatic demise, resulting in Wickham’s service in the Peninsular War, and eventual redemption. I’m going to try and write it so it fits with Adow maybe.

Serve & Volley: A rewrite of Say Hello, Wave Goodbye, where the Bennets and others take on the world of tennis.

A possible P&P story in the world of Formula One: This is dependent on my level of interest in F1, which is waning rapidly due to Red Bull and the  FIA manipulating 2021 and my parent’s endless discussion about it.

A Discovery of Witches:

Untitled: Just an idea which while re-watching the first  episode. Diana and Matthew meeting without the book, which is either  discovered much later or not at all.

A Star Wars crossover: first chapter written, second in  progress.  No Vampire or Witch element, but the main plot around Ashmole 782 transported into a star wars universe.  

A Once Upon a Time Crossover: An idea still in development.  Henry is a child prodigy at Oxford, Emma is there with him when she  discovers the storybook. Killian, a professor and biochemist has been  searching for the storybook for several years and learns of her  discovery.

Escaping Death Spinoff: A continuation of that oneshot, an AU of a scene in Shadow of the Night.

A Downton Abbey Crossover/Spinoff: This is a continuation of  my ideas from the previous Downton Abbey crossovers I have written,  exploring Matthew’s life as Henry Talbot in full.

Untitled: Diana has a horse ranch somewhere in America. Matthew comes to work there with, looking after the horses when his research lab at Oxford gets closed by the Congregation.

Untitled: Diana has a cafe in Oxford, near the university, in which she sells blood among the usual coffee, tea, latte, etc and food. Matthew, Miriam and Marcus meet there, whereupon he meets Diana.

Untitled: Diana has been hired to work as a librarian and archivist at Sept Tours when it opens to public tours after the news of the existence of creatures goes public and the covenant is undone

Unititled: (This was influenced by Matthew Goode playing Wickham in Death Comes to Pemberley.) When  Darcy returns to Pemberley, he reevaluates his relationship with  Elizabeth, Georgiana and Wickham, who rescues Lydia Bennet in Brighton,  which leads to her traumatic demise, resulting in Wickham’s service in  the Peninsular War, and eventual redemption. I’m going to try and write  it so it fits with Adow maybe.

Untitled: Diana and Matthew timewalk to where they were supposed to,  instead of 60 miles off course. Will their time in Elizabethan England  go more smoothly? Possibly, depends on my muse. Might incorporate the  continuation of Escaping Death into it.  

Untitled: Many years in the future, Matthew has assumed a new identity, as a woodwork teacher at a private independent school. Diana has passed, their children are all grown up. One day a woman with a young son walks into his classroom, a woman who looks very familiar...

Game of Thrones:

Untitled Tysan: Modern Westros. Tywin Lannister is a photographer, Sansa Stark a fashion model who agrees to a weekend photoshoot away with him.

Untitled Tysan: Old Westros. Tywin Lannister endures several nightmares about the future which causes him to take the Iron Throne and change the lives of his three children, among others. Twenty years later, he goes to the North in search of the woman who was the subject of torture and abuse in his nightmares.

Untitled Tysan: Sansa is a Cheerleader and gymnast and Tywin has taken his granddaughter Myrcella to the championships.

Btvs:

Seasons 6 & 7 of Seasons Rewrite: Episode Guides written, but other fandoms took hold.

Charmed:

A rewrite of Seasons 4-8 to include Prue, Cole and others: I  started this and then abandoned it, but I still would like to do it,  although at the moment the existence of Paige is up for debate. I’m  currently not a fan of Rose McGowan at present. I know that’s no reason  to write out her character, so we shall see.

North and South: Mr Bell visits Helstone to inform Margaret that she will inherit his property and takes her to Milton where she accompanies him to the Thornton annual dinner and she meets the mill owner. Mr Bell names Mr Thornton as his overseer and be is required to travel to Helstone to keep Margaret informed on her property. Her father never loses his position.

The Scarlet Pimpernel: Percy overhears Chauvelin’s visit with Marguerite and her passionate defense of the Scarlet Pimpernel and how Chauvelin had her implicated in the arrest of st. Cyr.

Once Upon A Time: Emma is organising Christmas at her family's stately home. Killian is a volunteer. Inspired by Christmas at Holkham Hall and Castle Howard.

Downton Abbey: Mary marries Richard Carlisle, who dies, leaving Mary a widow. Matthew has also died, Lavinia is alive, possibly has a son and heir. Henry Talbot arrives.

Downton Abbey: The burns patient was indeed Patrick Crawley. This changes everything for Matthew, Lavinia, Mary, Edith and others.

Whether all of these  stories will eventually go online is up to the muse.

HOW'S YOUR SWEET TOOTH DOING? HERE’S AN ANSWER!

He's a Furry God. Chill.
