Romance

[keiramarcos]

As a writer, I'm capable of writing in a variety of genres from historical to science fiction but one thing I can't seem to do is keep the romance out of my writing. I adore being in love and there is nothing more amazing to me than bringing two characters together and creating a world where they can come together and fall in love.

I write a lot of series work for fan fiction and by far the most romantic series (in my mind) is What Might Have Been. Lately I've been working on the novel follow up for that series (Ring of Fire) and honestly I've been putting off finishing this book because I know it's the last time I'll probably write a full on novella/novel for this series. I doubt I'll ever fully let go of this 'verse because as a writer I'm kind of in love with it. Maybe it's too sappy for words and the characters are larger than life but when I started writing it was because I wanted this big epic, surreal romance for John/Rodney and I'd looked around the fandom for a while and didn't find anything that exactly fit my want so I wrote it for myself. When I started posting it I wasn't even sure it was a series or what it was but then it turned into something really awesome and huge and a kid!fic which I don't even normally read.

So, what are the most romantic pieces of fan fic in the SGA fandom for you?

I have to agree. It has this epicness that a lot of writing for the sga fandom just doesn't have.

Seconded! I consider this whole addiction to gay sex Keira's fault. Seriously, i maybe read one or two Draco/Harry fics from the HP fandom just to see what all of the fuss was about but mainly i was a het!girl (yuck)...and then i found the Dark series and i LOVED it, i was curious so i clicked on another work of hers and it was WMHB.....since then i've been HOOKED!

it's actually at the point where if i read het i get this weird feeling like some important bits in the story are missing......most of my bookmarked fics on Delicious are slash..... :)

Well, I read Sam/Jack het in SG1 and Jennifer/Ronon fic in SGA until I came across "Time In A Bottle by Astolat" which is definitely the fic that brought me to the dark side.

Honestly, if you don't mind a bit of D/s or a lot depending on the story in your fic- and massively long- cause she dosn't do short. Google Harry/Draco and JordanGrant. That writer stands beside Keira in my OMG has there been an Update YET!!! Department and her Romance is there.
