About Fan Fics

Okay here are three pure FanFics. FanFics, Fan Fiction or Fanaticism Fiction are stories written within the universe of another creator. Normally (as in these cases) without the creators permission or knowledge. Thus though I am able to claim the plot lines and various creations of my own as within my copyright, I cannot and will never claim the original characters or universe as my own. I simply wanted to prove that I could write a fan fiction that was just as bad as everyone else’s. These three stories are Sailor Moon, Ranma ½ and Pokemon Universe based stories and all original characters are still copyright whomever owns the Sailor Moon, Ranma ½ and Pokemon copyright in whatever country you happen to be reading this in.

As a friend once asked, (something like) “Why are people who write poorly crafted fan fiction praised highly while those who write original characters are despised or ignored.”

My experience when writing the Naorhy stories was comments like “The Enterprise could kill those ships easily.” Actually no it couldn’t, as I proved four times in a row against different players on a Star Fleet Battles board, using Hydrans ships as fill in’s for the Naorhy. Even with the Kaufman Retrograde used against me. Or “When are we going to meet Kirk?” Huh? Who? There are no humans in the Naorhy Universe.

It is truly difficult to create a completely new universe when the majority of those who read your material continue to consider it against others works, refusing to set aside even for a moment their most cherished fanaticism (which is what FAN actually means.)

Still, why do you see racks of Star Trek, Star Wars, DnD and other famous television/movie worlds pressed into print? Simple, it takes real imagination to create a character in your mind that you haven’t already seen on television, races, societies and their culture/laws are even harder. Today the average ‘I want it now’ reader can’t do that. After all, we authors are warned by our publishers and our instructors to write at a sixth grade level or lower simply BECAUSE the average reader today cannot easily comprehend anything higher.

Please note that I said AVERAGE.

It’s also why artists are more popular than writers. Artists, though no less talented one for one than writers, must always appeal to the lowest common denominator. And apparently that lowest common denominator in my experience wants skin, sex and more sex. That lowest common denominator is also an unimaginative viewer who wants it NOW NOW NOW!

To the creators of Sailor Moon, Ranma ½ and pokemon, my deepest regards and apologies for barging into your living room. It will probably happen to someone else next time.
