Author has written 3 stories for Mentalist.

I'm not a writer, but it is an interest that I have had for quite a while. One of those things on my "one of these days when I have some time" list. While I don't really have that much time now, I finally decided that there is no time like the present. I think fan fiction is a great way to get my feet wet as I try to develop skill in this new activity. Try a little bit of this, and a little bit of that, and see what works. Since somebody else already went to the trouble of creating the universe and characters for me, it seems the least I could do is play God and direct their actions. Sounds like fun to me! Hopefully, I can manage to entertain a few of you along the way as well.

Changing The Game reviews
This is a sequel to Aftermath, which was a short episode tag to 5x16 that revealed how Lisbon felt when she realized she was in love with Jane. This will explore the changes Lisbon makes as a result. This is strong Lisbon taking charge of all aspects of her life and deciding that she has put her love life on hold for too long. I plan to update weekly.

The Longest Con of All reviews
This is a very different take on Angela Jane and her relationship with Patrick. It plays with the ideas that things are not always as they appear and that people believe what they want to believe.

Aftermath reviews
My take on Lisbon's thoughts during There Will Be Blood. Can be a standalone episode tag, but I am considering turning this into a longer story if people are receptive to it. My first attempt at fanfic. Honest feedback is appreciated.
