      Hello everybody. From the man who has FIVE fics and a filk he's
{supposed to be} working on, comes yet another author's update on his
progress. These are all part of my newly chartered Lunatic Fringe Fanfic
Productions. {"Where We Bring The Insanity To You"}  

Ranma- "Be Careful What You Wish For." 
{Title to be revised at a later date}

-A convergence tale, Gosunkugi-centered, featuring him, a semi-magic book,
and enough clones of the Ranma crew to fill a hotel. Takes place after Volume
38 {like nine-tenths of all stories.}  Chapters One and Two currently
completed, Chapter Three coming soon. Yet ANOTHER story with dimensional
traveling, with brief nods {nothing that will get me nailed for plagiarism,
though!! ^_^} to all those other stories with dimensional traveling. This fic
is intended as a precursor to my planned epic "Hikaru Gosunkugi:
Interdimensional Man of Mystery," which should be out in the spring.


Ranma- "Wish Granted" {Tentative title}

-A great fanfic author once wrote in one of his prefaces {i think it was
Richard Lawson but I might be dead wrong, I read a LOT of fics that night}
that each charachter in Ranma had their own fatal flaw, and if this were a
Greek tragedy they would all be dead by now. I took that concept, modified it
a little, and got this. A series of shorts, much like "Hidden Talents" with
each one focusing on an individual charachter, but decidedly darker. Each
charachter reaches a downfall through their own weakness, and something they
desperatly want. These are all shortfics, each part has a different title and
stands independently of the others.
Here's a list.

The Sound of Victory  -Kuno.  {Completed}
The Rose Distilled  -Kodachi {Half-done}
Scent of a Woman  -Happosai 
The Journey is it's Own Reward  -Ryoga 
Akane Can Cook- Akane

More to come as soon as I think of them.  


Ranma [FILK]- "Gosfinger."

-Listen to the theme from the *excellent* Bond movie "Goldfinger." That's the
inspiration {Duh!}


Ranma [LEMON]-  "The Perfect Couple."

- A collaboration between me and David "Hentai-kun" Carter, President of the
Lemon Division {"From Our Brains To Your Pants"} this is a pairing between
Ryoga and... well, that would be telling, wouldn't it? The lemon bits are
themselves less important than what thay entail. Currently in draft.


Ranma- "Joining of the Families." {Working Title.}

-I posted this idea just a few days ago, and i've only written a few
paragraphs. Basically, Soun and Nodoka's illegitamate son. Angst ensues.
Won't come out for a LONG time. Could use a little help for the REALLY deep
angst {nudge nudge wink wink}


BGC [LEMON]- Associates. {Working title.}

-Yes, yes, I KNOW I need to come up with permanent titles for these. Anyway,
another collaboration between me and Dave. Can't say anything to tease
without spoiling the plot except that i'm a bad, bad man.


Ranma- "The Nekomancer"

-This one is all Dave. I just help a little with the editing. No lemon this
time! Another "mysterious stranger in Nerima" story, but still pretty good.
An excellent comedy. Involves Ranma, Shampoo, Mousse, the Nekomancer, and
some wacky hijinks
involving cats. Currently in draft.


Whew!! Done with my summarizing. All these fics will  coming out over the
past month, with the possible exception of "The Nekomancer." If you want to
read the completed parts of any of those that actually HAVE them, reply to
me. Thanks for reading this far, if you had the patience. Ja ne!!
