I started a new fan fiction. It's my first attempt to write something more dramatic. This story starts at the end of season six. Leonard doesn't go to a research trip on board a ship in the North Sea, but to the South Pacific. Things happen that change the lives of Leonard and Penny in a dramatic way. Chapter 1

I started a new Lenny story. My second one. It's another alternative beginning for Leonard and Penny. https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12516964/1/The-Road-Trip-Coincidence

Great postings in here today. Since I'm not so good with words, let me contribute to today's positivity with a new drawing for y'all. I hope you enjoy. Penny and Leonard in a naughty cosplay. I leave interpretations to you (like who bought the costume, Penny or Leonard?), but we all know how this roleplaying ends, right? @Strawberry PopTart Fan: Happy Anniversary!

I've published the first chapter of my next Shamy FF. Spoiler Alert: Contains some S9 spoilers based on information released from the tapings, but not yet aired. Warning: The first chapter is kind of a downer, but it is a set up for good stuff to come later, I promise. https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11512549/1/The-Discussion-Resurgence

This thread is a catch-all to talk about the art of reading and writing fan fiction in general. Topics will range and vary according to where the discussion goes, but I would like to emphasize that everyone remember everyone is free to have their own particular preferences in regards to fan fiction and that all statements are merely a matter of opinion and can be subjective. This thread is neither a place to advertise your own fan fiction nor to bash other authors or even the preferences of others. Merely a place to compare and contrast opinions. Some possible questions or topics to take up might be: 1) If you get writers block, what helps you overcome it? 2) Is it more or less difficult to write IC vs OOC or AU fics, and which characters do you have a harder time keeping IC than others. 3) Do you veer towards romantic storylines, smutty ones, funny ones, or just the oddball ones? Or a smattering of all of the above? 4) If you write or read AU or OOC fan fiction, why do you prefer it over that which is IC? 5) Same question in the reverse: Why do you prefer IC fan fic over those which are AU, OOC, or both? 6) Reviews: What is the art of the review? Why do you leave one, or refuse to leave one? 7) Is it ever legitimate to leave a critical review in the fan fiction world? In the interest of full disclosure, I'm a Shamy fan and writer who prefers an IC fan fiction that trends towards humor rather than romance and especially smut. I'd rather read fan fiction with non-canon ships being featured and explored as long as the characters stay more or less IC over anything that goes completely OOC or AU. That's simply my preference and my opinion, but I know everyone likes something different and I'm curious - why do you read or write fan fiction, and what do you hope to get out of it when you go to publish or read a piece of fan fiction? I eagerly look forward to discussion. Disagreement is expected and even encouraged, as long as people are respectful of different points of view. Please keep it classy.

It happened, guys. The 7.11 promo was so bereft of Shamy that it tossed me into a sea of feels and made me write this one-shot. Enjoy. Sheldon and Amy spend an evening together before he departs in the morning to spend Christmas in Texas. Inspired by the 30-second promo for episode 7.11 “The Cooper Extraction”. (NO spoilers) Rated M for a reason, so keep that in mind. https://www.fanfiction.net/s/9916921/1/The-Extraction-Clause
