2020 Update - I haven't forgotten about any of my unfinished or promised new stories. Life has been tough the past few years so I haven't had much time or motivation to write. That said keep your eyes open for me to start posting some of the shorter one-shots (mostly Andrea/Neil for The Bill) I've been working on and I am hopefully near completion on some of the longer stories I've been working on (Although some of them may be pushing the upper ratings limit on here so I will have to be cautious about posting them).

Writing History

I’ve been writing fan fiction since way back in the year 2000, with the occasional original story written before that. I started publishing my work on fanfiction.net and various other sites in 2003, although I’d been browsing the site(s) anonymously for a good few years before that.

Most of my stories are centred in the 1999 to 2005 era’s of the Bill, although I will and have branched out into other fandom’s when the inspiration hits, my current favourite being Law and Order SVU. I’ve also got a couple of original stories over on fictionpress.com.

I don't have as much time to write nowadays with a young family to look after, but I still have occasional bursts of inspiration that I like to share on here. You will find a list of what I'm working on, my favourite pairings and favourite fandoms below.

What I'm Working On:

I am currently working on a couple of plot ideas based on old episodes of The Bill. The 2004-2005 era with PC Andrea Dunbar to be exact. I have recently re-watched these episodes on YouTube (They can be found under the username Elsa Arendelle or Robert Alexander (Season 20) if you want to watch them yourselves) and they have given me some great ideas for a couple of stories.

1. Into The Future - I'm working on this one right now and hope to have it posted before the end of 2020 ideally. It's basically set a few years after the fire and looks into what could of happened if Andrea hadn't been killed. (I've also started a spin off of this story that will outline the background information that forms the bulk of the plot line.)
2. Life on the Fast Track - Another one I've started which is currently around 30,000 words long and no where near finished, so the posting date is very much unknown at the moment (I'm not gonna post it until it's finished because I have a habit of not finishing stories when I've started posting them). It's starts with a conversation Andrea has with Adam Okaro about being put on a fast track advancement course and details some of the things that could happen if she was promoted to CID early on. This one will focus strongly on the Neil/Andrea relationship arc so if this is something you are interested in keep your eyes open for it.
3. Accidental Pregnancy - This one is something Loz06 was thinking of writing many years ago but never did, so I'm kind of pinching the idea (if she reads this and doesn't want it posted, then I won't post it because it was initially her idea, and I don't want to take the credit for someone else's work) - As it happens she never did write this story and as far as I'm aware she no longer writes fan fiction; so as it's an idea that I have always thought would make an excellent story, I have decided to give it a go myself. This one is still in the planning stages so is a long way off yet.
4. Team Building Troubles - A rewritten version of a story I began and abandoned many years ago. I'm not going to post any of this until it's almost complete though, so as not to leave it abandoned again. It will be mostly Andrea/Neil and the supporting cast.
5. Undercover (Working Title) - For this one (any many smaller one-shot's I'm planning), i'm living in denial that the fire and Andrea's death ever occurred, so it is kind of AU. Without giving much away, what would happen if Andrea and Neil had to go undercover at a conference for writers and journalists? This is currently 160kb in Word and is probably not even half finished yet so... Hopefully it will be well worth waiting for though when I do eventually get round to finishing it.

I have lots of ideas for a few other one shots, but I don't want to overload my brain with too much at once, so these are the main one's I'm concentrating on for the time being. The shorter One-shot's will be posted sporadically as they are completed and checked. Stay tuned for more details soon. I'm also working on typing up some old stories that I wrote but never published (either because they weren't quite finished or because they was only written in old notebooks in pen and need typing up.) These will appear when I'm done finishing them up.

Favourite Fandoms and Pairings:

Law and Order: SUV (Elliott/Olivia) - I stopped watching after the end of season 12, but still love reading fanfic based on these characters.

NCIS (Jen/Gibbs, Kate/Gibbs and Tony/Ziva) - I've recently took a liking to the odd Gabby fic too, up until the start of season 8 I always saw them as having a father/daughter relationship, but with some of the more recent episodes I'm seriously beginning to wonder. I will also occasionally read other pairings, depending on my mood. (Stopped watching after season 8, will occasionally still read fanfic based on these)

Bones (Booth/Brennan and Angela/Hodgins) - I'm new to this category so for now I'm just catching up on old episodes.

Castle (Beckett/Castle) - Another new one for me, I became obsessed with the show a couple of months ago after stumbling across a few fan fictions.

Torchwood (Jack/Gwen)

The Bill (John/Claire and Andrea/Neil) - This is the category I write for most, even though it's no longer on screen, I've got over 40 part finished stories and tons of ideas for more.

X-files (Doggett/Reyes and Mulder/Scully)

House MD (House/Cameron)

Abandoned Stories: I have decided to abandon the following stories for the time being, mostly due to lack of inspiration, although I may at some point in the distant future decide to go back to them. If you want to use them as parts of a story you are writing then feel free to adopt and adapt them as needed, just send me an email or PM to let me know and credit me for the idea(s) and I'll be happy. :D Stories abandoned are:

The Hunt for the Perfect Storm,

What They Don’t Know,

Team Building Troubles, - I am now rewriting this story from scratch.

Hidden Meanings, and

Accidents Do Happen.

These stories and any others I've decided to abandon have been/will be removed from my fanfiction.net account but email/pm me if you want a copy of one of them. This is to remove clutter and to clear out the projects I'm not working so I can focus on the ones I am working on. Completed stories will never be removed by the author.

Additional Information:

If you use any of my stories as part of the basis for your own stories, you can credit me under the name of Kate and either link to the story directly (Use the Title, Name and Description if you can't use links) or include a link to my profile.

Thanks.
