My 10 Fanfics (to be expanded)
Fanfic #1
Doctor Who- Time Crash
When Rose Taylor (in the blog its Rose Smith) is with Doctor #10 fixing his ship the TARDIS, suspended in space, both her and Doctor #10 encounter a stranded space traveller who happens to be the fifth incarnation of the Doctor (#5).
Tense is used in 3rd Person throughout the story with references to the first and second person as well in dialouges- this makes it easier for the reader to understand who is doing what.
In the second paragraph the author has used alot of descriptive words to describe the scene - TARDIS ie the red flashing alarms. The author uses past/present tenses, ie he sprawled while trying etc. the dialouges are almost always writen on the next line with the corresponding actions and there is a little bit of CUT/CHANGE in the story like the author wants to add action sequence to the story.
I personally thought this fan fic was a little to long but the author storytelling is very detailed but not too precise.
Fan Fic #2
Doctor Who (#11)- Adrift
This a just a short but still detailed story about Doctor #11.
This Fan Fic, focuses alot more on the doctors emotions and inner thoughts as he is exiled into Limbo.
Again, this author is writting in third person and sentences are short. All sentences have one idea or action to them but they have used comas to link the characters actions, to thoughts, or a reality POV. i.e "He sighs, knowing that she'll no longer be waiting for him in the past, that's all been erased now."
The author has kept the tense of the story to past/present, but all dialouges are written in the present tense. Dialouges are First person POV.
Although this story was short, I liked the way the author took on the characters emotions and thoughts. I want to create something like this for my fan fiction, in the way the characters inner emotions are slightly seen on the surface.
Fanfic #3
Doctor 10, Martha & Donna Chronicals
I like how the author includes characters from different series and interweaves them.
Even though the author has written about Doctor, Martha and Donna they have only really acknowledged the Doctor and Donna. There is a mention of Martha at the beginning of the story.
Again, the tense is written in passive and third person.
Fanfic #4
closer than you think
of course this is an alternative for #10 after he had been missing for a few weeks. It involves crossovers from the Sarah Jane Chronicals and Torchwood. Basically the companions are worried about the Doctors wrecklessness (Donna's memory loss).
This is almost fill of dialouge, the majority is passive tense and in third person. I like the way the author has written this. It gives the reader something to ponder on how the companions adjust to life after the Doctor. Also you see how an intervention between the characters plays out.
I would like to inco-operate some of these themes such as Donna's memory loss etc into my own story.
Fanfic #5
007 + SH + doctor
This one I found a little confusing...
To begin with it was very long and I found myself trailing off down the page.
The 007/watson/Doctor 11 crossover was a little too much.
As there was more than one chapter on the page I thought the author could have separated these on other pages but still reference them at the end of the chapters.I could just see where the authour was trying to go with the story. However, the layout could've been improved.
Fanfic #6
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6859517/1/A_Nightmare_to_Remember
This is the fanfic I was hoping to find as it has a lot of description about the scenes, not much dioalouge. Also it involves #11's companion being left alone to fend for herself. It is a dream sequence so the author had the ability to add a quick change to the scence etc.
Fanfic # 7
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6610302/4/Remembering
This fanfic is mostly dialouge that is written in the present tense. I think that the author has written it the way it would play out on screen more so the whole "if Donna remembered, it would kill her" instance. Sadly this was the last of four chapters and it would have been great if the author had written at least a conclusion chapter. Nonetheless, the layout was good compared to the last fan fic and there wasn't too much in one section.
Fanfic # 8
Three Doctors at Dinner
A comedic look at what would happen if the last three doctors were in a room together. I like how the author has combined all three doctors together with Rose who plays a big role in two of the doctors lives. This is a good and clever parody, with references to the characters personality traits. The layout was easy to read and the tense was third person also.
Fanfic #9
Impossible_Things
This author has stringed together a chapter using present tenses. I like the layout of the story there was text that contained a back story and narrative plot line. There were brief descriptions after dialouges to show what the character was doing. Even though this was a really good story, I don't think that it would be an ideal circumstance to bring a character back onto Doctor Who.
Fanfic #10
A_Matter_of_Life_and_Death
My final fanfic is a touching one between Donna's grandfather Wilf and the Doctor. There is a lot of emotional descriptions in the text. The text is in third person. The story reminds me of a father-son situation where the father is giving the son some piece of mind or advice. This is quite sad and suicidal at the same time really. The layout of both chapters is good but again like the last fan fic, I don't really see this panning out on screen.
