Hey, guys — sorry I've bee MIA for so long.
Most of you know that I write fanfiction, and that 90% (or more) of it revolves around Gwendoline Christie's characters. What I don't talk a lot about is that I've also been working on several (20+) original novels.
A lot of these projects started as simple "What if?" questions — usually inspired by books, films, or TV shows — and, unsurprisingly, more than a few of them revolve around Gwen's characters in one way or another.
So, I thought I'd share the titles, "What if?" prompts, & troupes/themes for the ones involving her characters and see which ones pique your interest.
Please let me know in the comments which story intrigued you and why. I'm genuinely curious and would really love to hear your thoughts!
Please do not steal any of these titles/ideas!! I have worked so hard and put so much effort (3+ years worth) into these!!
