Elliot's Pond --as wonderful as I thought Matthew was and the direction was fantastic--missed a scene. So I wrote it. Cause it wouldn't shut up and leave me alone to write my Christmas story. at Fanfiction: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12246021/1/Words-From-Afar and at aooo: http://archiveofourown.org/works/8641966 enjoy! (I hope) Beautifully written. You portrayed Reid and his thoughts about Hotch leaving in such a true to character manner. Seriously, CM should hire you! And as some of you know, I just dipped my toes into writing Spencer-related fan fiction. I have shared my first chapter via PMs with a few of our lovely members. I also sent my first chapter to my friend, Nora, and she will give me her thoughts and feedback when I see her tomorrow. She's not a CM fan (crime procedure shows aren't her thing), but she is also a writer and I look forward to her feedback, but I can't help but be nervous. As for the fiction itself, I'm not sure when I'll post the first chapter. I want to work n the second chapter first. But first I need to write a review for my blog. 1 Link to comment

senin January 5, 2017 Share January 5, 2017 (edited) First of all happy New Year to everybody!! I have been away and without Internet connection for some days, So before going away I copied some fantiction into Word documents to be able to read it while I was disconnected. Not that I had a lot of time (family reunions, cooking, meeting friends... Christmas time is always very busy!), but I managed to read ReidFan's series about Spencer and Melissa (I loved it!) . So thank you for keeping me company !! I had to edit because I had spelled read incorrectly, I had written "reid" !! I wonder why... Edited January 5, 2017 by senin 2 Link to comment
Bookish Jen February 2, 2017 Share February 2, 2017 (edited) When I saw last night's episode I thought, "Crap, this throws a wrench into my fan fiction idea!" But then I reminded myself that fan fiction is just that FICTION. So I fan wanked a bit and wrote a rough draft of the second chapter of my Spencer-related opus (snerk). I hope to post it to one of the fan fiction sites after I get some feedback from some of my trusted friends. Edited February 3, 2017 by Bookish Jen 2 Link to comment
senin February 7, 2017 Share February 7, 2017 One of my favourite writers of fanfiction has written some new stories which I have enjoyed enormously. Let's see if I can manage to get the links here. https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11993266/1/Of-Genius-and-Gentility new chapters, getting better with each new one. https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12348607/1/Family-Secret one shot, post -ep for "Surface Tension" https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12270537/1/Missing to help ease withdrawal symptoms, during Reidless episodes. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did. 3 Link to comment

normasm February 8, 2017 Share February 8, 2017 Senin, you are so right, these stories are the best! If people here aren't reading aMUSEment345, you really should! 3 Link to comment
Droogie February 8, 2017 Share February 8, 2017 Yes, definitely -- bravo, JMO! I seriously considered submitting a story on AO3, using the pairing of Spencer Reid/Reader, and every tag I could conjure. In the body, I was going to issue a plea for people to just STAAAHHHHPPP with the SR/Reader stories! It takes forever to scroll past and I'm so sick of seeing them. I can't imagine who could read them without feeling terribly icky. I hope it's a fad and that it passes soon. 3 Link to comment

senin February 11, 2017 Share February 11, 2017 I can't read it yet, because I haven't seen the episode, my "Criminal Minds to do" list is growing very fast!! 1 Link to comment
senin February 16, 2017 Share February 16, 2017 I just watched Spencer and I have done something I don't usually do, find the promos for the next two episodes and watch them. Why am I writing this in the fanfction thread?? Because some images of it made me think of one of JMO's stories, Consequences!! I don't think she will remember, but when I read it I told her that stories with trials, court rooms and lawyers were among my favourites. Well, it seems I am going to get what I wanted... and I'm afraid I won't like it!! 2 Link to comment
JMO February 16, 2017 Share February 16, 2017 When I write a long story, I pretty much live in that CM headspace until it's done. So, yes, when I saw the promo, I thought, "But he's already been on trial for murder!" Anxious to see how it's portrayed by the professionals. 3 Link to comment
senin February 16, 2017 Share February 16, 2017 I've told you before, I have this feeling that someone in the CM writing team is reading your stories. Well, at least we know that they will do something good. And we'll have to wait a whole looooooong week!! 3 Link to comment
Bookish Jen February 17, 2017 Share February 17, 2017 I got a bit worried after watching "Spencer" and seeing the clip for next week's episode. Just how am I supposed to work this arc into my fan fic? Well, I think I have an idea. Just as Spencer is dealing with Diana's Alzheimer's, looking for alternative remedies, and being framed for murder, Spencer's potential lady love has also gone to great lengths when it comes to a loved one's health. She makes a less than ideal, somewhat unsavory choice that ends up with someone dying. Hmm... Link to comment
Willowy February 17, 2017 Share February 17, 2017 OR, like we discussed, you can do whatever the heck you want and canon be hanged. ;) 3 Link to comment
Danielg342 February 17, 2017 Share February 17, 2017 Considering CM's own writers disregard canon at will (and that said canon is a mess anyway), I second simply "going your own way". It's what I did when I wrote my own fics. 1 Link to comment
iRarelyWatchTV36 February 18, 2017 Share February 18, 2017 I understand that some writers feel "married to canon", but I personally have never really understood why. In my own headspace, that's kind of the point of fanfiction, to borrow characters/items/locations from something else but then write your own story around the borrowed people/places/things. If I want to take in something that adheres strictly to 'canon', I'll go read the original book(s) or watch the TV shows or movies that provides the playground the fanfic is set in. I can read 'strictly canon' fics - especially one-shot episode codas - but they're usually not my faves. Another thing about FF is there's a good-to-great chance I can find (at least) a few fics with my chosen pairing(s); canon be damned, in that respect. 2 Link to comment

ReidFan February 19, 2017 Share February 19, 2017 I love a good episode coda. Especially if it's for an episode I really loved. And most especially when it's done by such a talented writer as yourself JMO. You always manage to touch on something there just wasn't time for in the aired episode. 4 Link to comment

Bookish Jen February 22, 2017 Share February 22, 2017 (edited) Though fan fiction doesn't have to be canon, I now realize how Spencer's arc can lead up to the decision he makes in my fan fic. Before Spencer's fan fic, I thought my fan fic idea might be too "out there." Well, perhaps for the Spencer of yore, it would have, but I think with this arc, it might make sense why he makes the choice he does when it comes to meeting his potential love interest.

ReidFan February 26, 2017 Share February 26, 2017 JMO, I can't even! This was just wonderful. I literally pictured AJ Cook and Jane Lynch acting out your scenario. I expect to see it in the deleted scenes section of the season 12 dvd set; it fit right into the episode. Loved how you addressed something we all fear with Reid in prison; and how you worked in some of the details we saw in Surface Tension and fleshed out Diana's memory book. Beautiful. 4 Link to comment

It's what we all fear for him, poor sweet baby. You touched on all the things we are worried about -- spelled out most but intimated the others. How I wish you wrote for the show! And I love that your JJ wanted to strangle Garcia. I do on the weekly but her stupid, childish, insensitive "chart" wasn't cute and furthermore, "cute" had no place in that context. So that was cathartic for me. Just brilliant, really. Edited March 5, 2017 by Droogie 2 Link to comment

Spoiler Of all the possible explanations for Reid's behavior in the last part of the episode, you chose the one which I think fits better with his personality. He has to be true to himself.
