How in the world did I not know about this comm until today?! What a brilliant idea! And I see several names I recognize here, too. :) *waves*
So hi, I'm Rose, and I'm a theology nerd. :D I've been a believer for as long as I can remember, and I've been fic-inclined for almost as long, though I didn't know that it had a name or that other people wrote those kinds of stories until I was a senior in high school. The result was Monkeefans for Christ, which has since grown to include a Monkees devotional and a fairly extensive archive of my own fic. I also post on my fic journal,
sarosefics, as well as FF.n and (occasionally) Many Paths to Tread. The main fandoms I write for are The Monkees, Lord of the Rings, Stargate Atlantis, Hogan's Heroes, and Supernatural, though I'm certainly open to writing for others, especially in crossovers. (Fair warning: Some of my SPN fics contain *mild* profanity, but not even as vulgar as in the show, and there's definitely no taking the Lord's name in vain.) I view my fic audience as a mission field, so I do my best to write stories that stay in line with my faith, even if they need to play with heterodox ideas for the sake of the story, and provide "an example of the believers" even when they're not openly evangelistic.
If you are in the mood for openly evangelistic stories, however, here are a handful of my strongest:
Monkees: Were You There? -- A mysterious invitation sends the Monkees back in time for a Passover that will change their lives... and all of history. (PG for period violence)
LOTR: Abjured -- In which the Witch-king of Angmar meets his Maker. (PG-13 for violence and thematic darkness; far darker than my norm, but for a purpose)
SGA: The Leap -- Post-"Kindred," Rodney finds himself with questions that science can't answer... what's a physicist to do? (PG)
SPN: Harrowed -- Dean says yes in Hell--but not to Alastair. He is rescued--but not by Castiel. Someone unexpected is waiting for him down there... and that makes all the difference. (PG for violence)

Date: 2012-10-18 01:52 pm (UTC)It's always wonderful to see a new face around the comm! We're a small community, but a good one (though I might be a little biased as the mod, lol). Seriously though, it's very nice to meet you!
I read all of the fics you posted, and really enjoyed them. I think I had read "Harrowed," on FF.N once before when I was looking through Supernatural fan fiction, and enjoyed it then as well as now.
I loved the "guest stars" you used in "The Leap," and I loved the journey you had The Monkees take in "Were You There?" I was thrilled to see some of the lyrics of "Watch the Lamb" included. That's such a beautiful song! I don't know much about LOTR, but I loved the elegant tone you used for "Abjured." It was very fitting, and it was a very powerful fic! It reminds me of the words, "Of all the words of tongue and pen, the saddest are these: it might have been."
I hope you'll continue to post, and I look forward to seeing you around the comm!
Take care and God bless!
