Where to post a BT story?
« on: March 24, 2011, 01:15:40 AM »

Just wondering if there is a place for BT fiction.  I was thinking of posting a story of mine here.

Stories for Alternate Universes in that thread, BT stories in other non-current canon timeline settings in the historicals.  As to stories set in the current canon time frame that are canon, we don't really have a place, due to the site being focused on AU's.  I'm sure Knightmare can rustle something up or you could drop a canon story in the historicals section for now.

You know there is something wrong with the FWL, when Word's spell check changes Impavido to Impetigo and Zechetinu to Secretion.

Sure thing. I build to suit. So if you have a story that's canon, but non-historical I'll set it up.

Well, it's historical - takes place in 3115, with some events in the early 3070s.  Nothing linking it hard to the Jihad, possibly some references to the Draconis Combine, assumption that the main character is serving in the AFFS.  But not historical in the sense that it changes anything, nor non-canon that it breaks any established rules (although my explanation of a neuro-helmet is different from the official version and makes, in my mind, more sense).

I will drop it in and if you guys have an issue with it, I am sure you can wave your keyboards and it will move to the correct place.  At least there *is* a place for it!
