Master List of Elizabeth Culmer's Fiction
---------------------------------------------

FANFICTION:

General Disclaimer: These stories are based on characters and situations created and owned by other people and corporations. I make no money from this borrowing of intellectual property, and intend no copyright or trademark infringement.

Organization: This list is organized primarily by fandom; within each fandom, it's arranged first by associated story cycles and then by writing date. Word counts and writing dates are approximations.

Content/Warning Policy: 1) I am not consistent about warnings! I use them when I remember, for a few relatively broad categories of potentially problematic content, but if something is off-page, non-explicit, or generally backgrounded, I probably won't think to note it in the metadata. Read at your own risk! 2) The things I try to warn for are explicit sex, rape, murder, torture, cannibalism, incest, depression/suicide, familial dysfunction, and occasionally also societal dysfunction (aka dystopia). Sometimes I just slap a general content warning on all my fic for a given fandom and don't label each individual fic. I also don't generally warn for violence, unless the violence in a fic is dramatically out-of-step with the violence in its source canon. 3) I don't use any content rating system unless I'm posting to a site or community that requires or encourages ratings, because I find movie-style ratings counter-intuitive when applied to written fiction, and not particularly useful for anything other than denoting the presence of explicit sex, which I already note in the metadata.

Quality Rating System: I've marked my favorite stories with asterisks, on a scale of 1 to 4. The more asterisks, the more I like the story. This doesn't necessarily mean that stories without asterisks are bad, just that I don't like them as much. Also, I am not claiming to be an arbiter of taste; you may love stories I dislike, and vice versa. I am just providing a heads-up about the ones that I think are best written and/or most interesting.

Where To Read: What I post on my journal tends to be the equivalent of a beta draft. If I have cross-posted a story literally anywhere else (except Tumblr; fic content there is just a mirror of fic content here), read the version that isn't on my journal. Versions on AO3 are definitive. If there is no AO3 version, read the ff.net version. If there is no ff.net version, read the FictionAlley version (only applicable for HP fic). Failing that, read the journal version, because that's the only one there is.

The hard copy still hasn't reached Cat, but I am going to post this anyway, just so I can stop worrying about it. It's divided into three sections, with a separate post for an author's note. This is only because the story is 16,000+ words long, and wouldn't fit in one post; it's really a very long one-shot.

Story Notes

(For the curious, an early draft of Ifira's version of Marea's story is posted here.)

"Finding Marea" is at 8,200 words. I think I can finish it in four more scenes -- one with Harai doing research, one to tie up Laila's story, one with Harai putting everything together, and a fourth because I know I'll go on a tangent somewhere. Possibly I can talk Laila into telling Marea's story as well, which could be interesting. (I seem to have created another semi-important character kind of by accident, but I'd written myself into a situation where she needed to exist for plot reasons, and she let me get some ideas into the open via a conversation about theology. So, everyone say hello to Sister Josia Agipae, of the Abbey of St. Ithigea in Kos. Yes, that would be Harai's abbey, only several centuries in the past, during Laila's day.)

"Lemonade" chapter 4 is at 1,700 words, or roughly 3/4 written. That might be done sometime this week, unless I get distracted by all my other WIPs.

This is Harai's numerology system, which is widespread in the Doran Empire and the coastal region of Nalus. Comments, anyone? Am I missing really obvious 'elements' that should be signified by a number? (Yes, I know I'm leaving out death, but there's a reason for that.)

( Doran numerology )

This is a small piece of an original story I've been writing. It's a terribly irritating story, all layers upon layers, but I kind of like it. See, we have one woman (Harai Inosike) telling the story of another woman (Laila Tolemeus) who was inspired by a third woman (Marea Shouja). And the first woman repeats three versions of the third woman's story, as told to her by women four (Ifira Burosca), five (Somae Taucannig), and six (Larachine Enu). With much religious philosophy mixed in, and a vague pretense of the whole thing being a sort of sociological paper. It's enough to give me a headache.

Anyway, this is version one of woman three's story, as told to woman one by woman four.

Say that three times fast. :-p

( Finding Marea )

Am nearly decided about my future (at least until the end of the year). It's kind of scary to throw yourself into the gulf of possibility and hope you can sail to a safe harbor. But still. All will be well, and all manner of things will be well.
