FanFic Collection

I had an idea tonight, and I thought I'd bring it up...
What if someone was to make a collection of our favorite fanfic stories? Put them in an organized format, and then distibute them to other sites or something. I dunno about the distributing, but I thought it was an interesting idea.
Post back and eloaborate on it...
If you like the idea, then maybe we could have a vote or something on which stories should be put in the first volume. (Yes, there could be multiple volumes.)
Thanks!

The idea certainly has merit. The only problem, as I see it, is that a lot of stories out there have potential but are still diamonds in the rough. Even the best stories could use some pretty heavy editing. It would take a lot of work to do this right.

i will take all my storys and start fixing them

Post Sun Sep 05, 2004 9:36 pm

That would be great!
If you guys think it is a good idea, then i will be glad to do a lot of the dirty work! I have a knack for grammer, so I will be glad to do it! I have copies of Neuro's and Bret's stories on my comp, so i will start on those. I think those will most definatly be in the collection, after all everyone seemed to love them!
Thanks for the responses guys!

Sounds good to me Jacob. If you have any problems getting mine off of the site, i'll gladly e-mail it as a do have all chapters in word. I know there are some nasty grammar and spelling mistakes in mine

Actually, that would be great Bret. I took your first two stories and did my best to cut and paste them, but there were most likely problems.

outcast i meant in that 3 hour peroid

Post Mon Sep 06, 2004 9:38 am

No problemo

Could you explain in more detail for me please exactly what you do want do?

I confuse easily

EDIT: I assume the e-mail in your profile is fine?

Yes my e-mail is fine. I want you to go through, correct your spelling and punctuation, and clean it up. I have a formatted version on my comp, but it would help if you could fix the punctuation and spelling. If you are too busy, then just send me the story as a Word doc. Then, I could get the 1st volume of the book out. Here is what I decided to put in the 1st volume.
Part 1
neuromancers 1st untitled story
Saviors of Sirius
Part 2
DA's Diary of a Freelancer- (from Fanfic page)
Story of Robert Lamb- by me
Those are what will be in the first volume.
In the next one I hope to put in one of DS's stories, as well as Bret's sequel, if he finishes it. Plus CODE's new story, if he finishes it by then.
Thanks for all the help!
