Fanfiction - Geeky Girl Experience

I’m a big advocate for fanfiction. It’s an important part of being in fandom. They keep franchises alive. They expose fans to new ideas. They allow creators a place to learn about themselves, try new things, and work through problems. It’s where many writers get their start to build a fanbase before publishing. Fanfiction has been featured in documentaries like Looking for Leia. It has even won major awards.

I love reading and writing fanfiction. I use fanfiction as a way to practice my writing, try new things, use characters outside of my comfort zone, and so on. I host my work on Archive of Our Own where I mostly write Star Wars fanfics. But I have also dabbled in other fandoms as well like She-Ra, some of my favorite podcasts, and CATS.

Yes, CATS as in the musical CATS. It was one of my first fandoms. It was my first exposure to live theatre. I know it’s a ridiculous play with basically no plot. I love it so much. Don’t fight me on this one.

I have several works in process (WIP) as well as numerous one shots. Here are some of my projects:

WIP

Summary: Cass Kiyanu-Nuruodo has released a controversial book in the time of the New Republic. It outlines the lives of his parents, their meeting, their secret relationship, and his father’s death at Lothal. It caused quite a stir, because his father was Grand Admiral Thrawn.
