More Fanfic from the Future

A Few Words...

First off, if you don't really know what fan fiction is, I'd check out an article about it first. (Yes, shameless plug, I wrote the article for a college magazine, but I did interview noted fan fiction writer Mary Jean Holmes about the craft, and I think it's pretty informative. Mary Jean also penned a spicy editorial entitled "It's Only Fan Fiction," which outlines some of the subgenres and attitudes people have on fanfic in general in rather scathing ways -- but since I agree with her views, I liked it!)

Anyway, I think I'm probably one of the few people who has read a lot of Back to the Future fan fiction -- from the good to the not-so-good. But it shouldn't be terribly surprising to me as wanting to read "Back to the Future stories" was what first prompted me to start writing my own, way back in August 1992. One reason why I put my stories on the Internet in the first place, back in 1996, was in the hopes that it would encourage other BTTF fans and would-be writers to also put their stuff up. It's taken a while, but some are finally beginning to trickle in, and that is one reason I created this particular page -- for others who just can't get enough adventures of Marty McFly, Doc Brown, and company. Also, in my vast searches for more BTTF fan fiction on the 'net, I've turned up no lists of this kind. Lists for other fan fic, yes - -but none for the poor, neglected series known as Back to the Future!

One last word before you bounce around these pages -- if you have some BTTF fan fiction available for perusal, e-mail me and let me know so I can add your link to this page. (Unless, of course, I stumble across it first.) And these pages are listed in no particular order.



SINGLE AUTHOR FUTURE FANFIC WEBSITES

One can download all of her stories -- more than a dozen -- at this web site. You need the free Adobe Acrobat Reader to view them and print them out as your own, but it's small nuisance to pay for this fabulous work.

  • Tekva's Doc & Fan Writing Page: The site of "Tekva's" stories, who was one of the premiere BTTF fanfic writers back in the day.

  • Starlighter's Back to the Future Fiction: The site of some really nifty vignettes, so far, by simply "Starlightercrm114." Hopefully with more to come.
