    The Turning Point by JS Stephens (alternative, 12 Pages)
        The question above was "Is there supposed to be a story between 'Gabrielle' and 'Turning Point' and if so, where can I find it?" I am the author, so I can assure you that there is not a story between "Gabrielle" and "The Turning Point". The next story in the series is "Loosening the Chains". I chose not to write any stories set in the time frame of Xena or Gabrielle's childhood, except for our glimpse of Gabrielle's childhood ("Gabrielle") and several glimpses of Xena's childhood ("The Rest of Our Lives", "The Temple Incident", and flashback scenes in "Yesteryear".)

    I have donated my fiction to the folks here because I just don't have the time, energy, or creative spark to continue writing. I consider my Xena/Gabrielle universe closed, and my uber universe (not yet posted here) pretty much closed. IF I find time, I may send stories this way. Otherwise, I'll continue to erratically post to my little blog at http://jsstephens.tripod.com/blog/ .

    Feel free to click on the email link in my stories if you'd like a longer discussion. - JS Stephens Aug 28th, 2005
    Split Second by Stone (alternative, Original/Über - Modern, 131 Pages)
        Split Second was a wonderful story with drama, passion, politics, family and heartbreak. Hell! If it were a country song...it would have been a number one hit. Only thing missing is a dog! Ya just gotta read it. Maybe Stone's next one will have a dog?? <Scratching my head> READ IT! - jlnicky Aug 27th, 2005
    The Turning Point by JS Stephens (alternative, 12 Pages)
        Hi! Just moved on to this story after finishing the first 3 parts of the "Xena & Gabrielle Mythical Babes" series and noticed this is marked as #5. Only problem is, I can't seem to find #4. Is there supposed to be a story between "Gabrielle" and "Turning Point" and if so, where can I find it? Thanks! - Mich Aug 27th, 2005
    Accidental Love by B L Miller (alternative, Original/Über - Modern, 275 Pages)
        I just read this story for the seventh time. I recently bought Accidental Love for the second time, don't want to wear them out. If anyone hasn't read this yet, you are really, really missing out. My all-time favorite. BL has a way of drawing you into the story and keeping you there...hook, line and sinker. Great work BL! - Jeana Aug 26th, 2005
    Fire Within by Anita Louise (alternative, Original/Über - Modern, 258 Pages)
        WOW!! Great story. It holds your attention to the very end. - kb Aug 26th, 2005
    Though They Sink Through The Sea by romansilence (alternative, Original/Über - Futuristic, 51 Pages)
        Juat a bit of grumbling. With all the great feedback I got on my X/G-stories, you guys really got me spoiled - but as of now, there only were two message concerning the Sam/Janet-story. I'd really like to know what you think of it. I also welcome critique, as long as it is constructive. Keep on reading! Cordially, rs. - romansilence Aug 26th, 2005
    The Gathering by Ri (alternative, Original/Über - Modern, 9 Pages)
        This was a really good story. I like how Blair and Jo are the same and yet their not. Really well done. - toni Aug 26th, 2005

    Although we are in the relative safety of the Midwest ourselves now,
    we do know the power of a hurricane, having been in Miami, Florida for Andrew in 1992.
    Please join us in our prayers for the safety of those in the path of Hurricane Katrina.
    Keep safe everyone, be strong and have faith that everyone will make it through the storm.

    The Invitation by Zuke (alternative, Original/Über - Modern, 87 Pages)
        Heartbreaking...My english is not enough to help me describe the way this story has moved me (and I am not an emotional person).Highly reccomended. - Artemistech Aug 24th, 2005
    Bumbled Burglary by Larisa (alternative, Original/Über - Modern, 70 Pages)
        I stumbled on Larisa's stories just another day, I don't know why I haven't read any of them before. Now I'm simply in love these stories *sigh* and I'm reading them all through.

    I specially liked this one: maybe it's the baby/child-content... Who knows. Very good work, Larisa! - Elle Aug 23rd, 2005

    And Fair Truth by de Bonheur (alternative, 49 Pages)
        This was a beautiful tale of love, everlasting love. I dont think anyone could have showed the love Xena and Gabrielle share for each other better than this auther except maybe one of the most famous fan fiction writers Melissa Good. A pleasure to read - Melissa Aug 23rd, 2005
    Comic Book Life by Zee (alternative, Original/Über - Modern, 46 Pages)
        I triple the recommendation. It's one of my favourites too - I read it several times a year. Funny, angsty and taps into my comic fantasy. Zee is a fabulous writer.

    The Last Train Home by Advocate (alternative, Original/Über - Pre 20th Century, 307 Pages)

    My Whole Life by M. S. Anderson (alternative, Original/Über - Modern, 1 Pages)
        I most certainly echo the comment by Asha about 'My Whole Life'. Ms. Anderson is truly gifted and it is our fortune that she shares with us her heart, her hopes, her dreams and the most important thing her feelings of love. May I say 'thank you' Ms. Anderson for your gift to us. My Whole Life should be read every day to remind all of us of hope and dreams that can come true. - Anonymous Aug 19th, 2005

    My Whole Life by M. S. Anderson (alternative, Original/Über - Modern, 1 Pages)
        every once in a while we awaken to the reality that we're all that we've got..and more oftentimes we find ourselves yearning more for that elusive dream.. of a love unknown.. unfathomable.. ms. anderson's work just reminded me of the that reality.. it's admirable how someone as gifted as her can put into words the feelings.. that we may be having in lieu of that dream. gr8 work! i realize only now --that i haven't truly fallen in love just yet! haha.. tnx. makes the hurt/pain feel a little less.. ;-) - asha Aug 15th, 2005

    Of Drag Kings and a Warrior Princess (aka Of Drag Kings and the Wheel of Fate) by Susan Smith (alternative, 200 Pages)
        Contrary to the tag, this is NOT unfinished, however you do have to hop around a bit in the archive links to find all of it. It is INCREDIBLE. As the other reader mentioned, I too, stopped the world for this story and read it to completion. This story is wonderful. I hope that the Athenaeum could get permission to host this so that it does not get lost forever, because it is truly wonderful.

    This is a story that I highly recommend, and is romantic and warm enough to melt stone. Allow yourself a good weekend to read this one, because you will not want to put it down!!! - -Aerows- Aug 14th, 2005

  • The Latest Reviews Page has been updated.
  • romansilence's alternative SG-1 Original/Über Though They Sink Through The Sea (51 pages).  Oh, did we mention that we love SG-1 tales as well?  This one is very good! J
  • Part 25 (16 more pages) of Phantom Bard's alternative Silmarillion/Xena Warrior Princess crossover, In An Age Before (349 pages in 25 parts - Unfinished).
  • Part 1 of Bluemoonwriter's alternative Original/Über Dreams of a Different Kind (5 pages - unfinished). This story is based on the TV show "American Dreams."

  • Cool (unrelated to fiction) Recommendation of the Day -

    A few months ago we pointed you to two impressive free pieces of software. Today we've another great one with lots of eye candy and fun! ORBITER is a free flight simulator that goes beyond the confines of Earth's atmosphere. Launch the Space Shuttle from Kennedy Space Center to deploy a satellite, rendezvous with the International Space Station or take the futuristic Delta-glider for a tour through the solar system - the choice is yours.

    But make no mistake - ORBITER is not a space shooter. The emphasis is firmly on realism, and the learning curve can be steep. Be prepared to invest some time and effort to brush up on your orbital mechanics background.

    ORBITER also supports a wide range of add-ons, from new planets and moons, to new ships, planetary bases, and space stations.

    Bardeyes Comment: If all of your knowledge of space flight has been gained from movies and the Sci-Fi Channel, you are in for a bit of a shock. -G- The documentation is excellent though…and the SIM is good enough that it's well worth the time it takes to learn it.

    Well you 've done it again....another fantastic well written story on my favorite

    personalities.....especially 'Veba's. allowing that childlike 'innocence' to be
    mixed with the stength, determination of an independent woman.

        Something about this emotional, gripping series of 3 stories (Redemption, Retribution, Restitution) makes them stand above most others for me. Even the secondary characters are much better than usual. I've read them 3 times over the years, & just ordered the books last week. I wish I had the money to support more of the Xenaverse authors' book efforts. I don't however, so it's pretty telling that I got all 3 of these. I recommend the stories very highly, & hope you get as much enjoyment from them as I have. Give 'em a try!!! - LAL Jul 29th, 2005

        Excellent story! I loved the character of Cody, and Amanda. I hope that in the future, this author takes the story and adds more to it. It finished way too fast for me! - Katia N. Ruiz Jul 4th, 2005

Monday, July 04, 2005 - New Fan Fiction

  • Today we're launching another new addition to The Athenaeum. We love fantasy art, and would like to share a bit of our collection with you. Starting today, you will be able to view the Artwork Of The Day. It will be updated daily, even if there is no fiction update for that day.

    Expect to see dragons, fairies, angels, magic, battles, landscapes, famous paintings, and of course the women that fantasy art is know for. At times it may be whimsical and at times it may be erotic. You never know what we'll have up tomorrow.

    Perhaps a few of you will be inspired to write by what you see. If you enjoy this new page, let us know. We know this isn't fan fiction related, but it's something we enjoy, and we think some of you will as well.

  • There's a new Top-25 list and a classic tale gets a #1!
