Okay, I have to boast a little about a work of fanfiction I have up: www.fanfiction.net/s/5709622/1/Ginger_Snaps_The_Feral_BondThis is an alternate version of Unleashed. To explain, I first learned of Ginger Snaps when I saw a small part of Unleashed on Halloween 2009. It resonated with me in a personal way: I had just been discharged from a psychiatric hospital after receiving electro-convulsive therapy and I was on all sorts of meds. I was also blown away by Emily Perkins' performance as Brigitte and had to learn more about this character's back story. I decided not to watch the rest of it until I had seen the original. So, then two weeks later, I saw the original. I was amazed at how great a movie it was. Wouldn't you know, then ten days later, I went back and watched Unleashed and I was so disappointed. Why? With my recent hospitalization, it turns out, my mind had raced ahead and had already put together in my head what the story was. I went as far as having thought out whole scenes. When that wasn't the story, I felt let down. So, hopefully, without insulting anyone, The Feral Bond is the alternate story I came up with for Unleashed. May everyone understand and enjoy. It's still a work in progress, but basically, it is being written from a very complete plot treatment, actually, a fully written script.

Well, I didn't put it on the site until about two a.m. I'm sorry to say. I hope you can enjoy it tonight. This one elaborates the most from the script, (the latter version which you haven't read), and it's also the most disturbing chapter yet.

Chapter 9 is up, and if I could say so myself, this one is cool.
But . . . let's just say it combines sex and violence very disturbingly, but with a purpose. But let's just say if anybody else's muse told them to write this I'd accuse them of deception.
Comments welcomed.

Just read chapter 9! Poor Sam Thank you. Yes, poor Sam. All you could say is you hope that never happens to such a nice guy. I'm just hoping that was a scene that kept you guessing wrong. I had that chapter done, I thought. I got up in the morning Sunday thinking I was going to be posting it within the hour, and then spent fourteen hours on it Sunday and another seven yesterday, and added about 900 words. I am so totally, completely worn out today. I need to rest.

Whew! Chapter 10 is up. I have mixed feelings about it. It has some plot twists, comedy, and important plot points. But . . .
It doesn't have the sisters in it that much, (Ginger some, Brigitte none) and there's not much in the way of horror in it. Ginger clashes with another ghost.
But both the horror and the sisters will be returning subsequent chapters.

Chapter 12 has been giving me problems. I put it up last night, but after I read it this morning, I took it down. The description needs work.
It does end with the most brutal scene I've written so far. I'm more proud, however, of the subtext and dialog in that scene.
The story has actually gained some subtext, not the usual fan fiction. And for the few of you who saw my plot treatment, officially the story has now changed.
But before it goes up, I'm taking a few days off. There's a good reason why the description is flat. I need a "weekend." What a good time for one!

Chapter 12 went up tonight after a full day's work on it. It's unbelievable what I started out with, what I cut out, added and changed. Even though I have that plot treatment, half of what's written here surprised me.
It really does get into more of the mental process of Brigitte changing into a werewolf. A hint: it's not as easy as it looks, and Ginger is well aware of that, but doesn't have the words to describe it to Brigitte.
