Fanfiction.net is a fantastic site. I discovered it three summers ago, in the midst of an epic obsession with the musical Cats. I was on a fansite, and it had a link to the author's favorite Cats fanfictions, which happened to be posted on fanfiction.net. After I initially found the site, I proceeded to spend my entire summer on it almost constantly. It probably wasn't the healthiest thing I'd ever done, but I was home by myself during the day, and it gave me something to do.
It wasn't long before I started writing my own fanfiction, under the penname Rubidia (I'm still on the site, go check it out!). After a while, I morphed over from the Cats section to the Haunted Mansion section (under Disney). That's right: I'm a Haunted Mansion groupy. I wrote several fanfictions for HM, including one called Ghost Sheep, in which the unofficial mascots of the Mansion, the Hitchhiking Ghosts, find a sheep, which they soon lose, and spend the rest of the fanfiction trying to find him. I turned it into a trilogy, and the second is completed. The third is still unfinished, but there are ideas floating about.
Another fanfiction I have is a joint fic that I'm writing with a friend of mine called Somewhere Over the Graveyard, a crossover fanfiction of the Haunted Mansion and the Wizard of Oz. This is also still in the works.
I will tell you, though, the best fanfiction I've ever read is Destiny at the Haunted Mansion by Aquarian Wolf. It is incredible. It is romantic, and funny, and sad, and just utterly awesome. I'm telling you. I will end this post right now, and you all copy and paste this url into your address bar, and read it right now:
