Here's a "cookie" from the new fanfic I've been working on (to the detriment of poor "Plumbers Helper", though I *have* worked on that one some too, I swear). The title of this one is still kind of up in the air -- I started out calling it "Running on Empty", then changed it to "Wilderness Survival 101" because I liked the idea of having the name of each chapter sound like a piece of advice on surviving in the wilderness ("Stay Calm", "Find Food", etc) and then have it relate to the plot in an unexpected way. However, I'm finding it harder and harder to think of good titles on that theme, so maybe I'll switch back to the other ...
I won't tell you right off the bat who is featured in this story, since you aren't supposed to know at first. However, it will be very friendship focused (eventually), as mine always are, with more than a little h/c on the side. And it will probably be about as long as "Broken". The timeline is late in the 2nd season, but probably before Michael. I currently have about 8 chapters written, but I'm waiting 'till I get the end nailed down before I get serious about posting it. This is the "rough" version; I'm probably going to try to find somepoor shmoe lucky person to beta for me and keep me from looking like an idiot. Well, more of an idiot than usual.

Like it? Hate it? Naturally I'll be continuing even if you do hate it, as I suffer from a pathological case of writing addiction.
An interesting side note about this story ... the opening scene (character with amnesia waking up in a field) is actually from a much older, non-fanfic short story that I started writing in college. The scene has been rewritten for this story, but the basic setup is the same. Things go in quite a different direction than the original plan from that story, however.
