AU writing meme
I have a lot of things I should be writing (and also being careful about not writing too much, self) but, what the hell, I have finished my epic Runaway Tales/Unconventional Courtship rough draft (the wretched thing is 20,000 words long) and I did manage to type up the ending of that TARDIS/Sapphire/Silver/Steel WIP, so, totally ignoring my ficathon and leftover
fandom_stocking things, here goes:
Give me a character/pairing and I will write snippets of ten different alternate universes for it. One line, ten lines, a ficlet if you're lucky.
Wild West
Coffee Shop
Shapeshifters
Pirates
. . . In SPACE!!
Born Another Gender
Schoolfic
Police/Firefighters
Urban Fantasy
Regency
We'll see what happens. (If my brain collapses and what happens is no words at all, I apologise in advance.) Also, I altered the meme. I thought if I came up with one AU for 'harem' it'd be a miracle, let alone doing it several times over. And I'm never totally sure what Cyberpunk means.)

Liz Shaw
***
Wild West
Liz had been determined to become a doctor, but despite battling her way to a degree, she had not been allowed to be formally awarded it. At least out here, they didn’t care much who was the sawbones as long as they didn’t kill too many of their patients – and there were plenty of patients to practice on, especially with Sheriff Lethbridge-Stewart around.
Coffee Shop
“I think I’ve got it this time,” said Liz as she frowned over her notes in the search of the formula for a perfect espresso. “Now, Benton, try this…”
Shapeshifters
She called it a curse and kept herself in the lab for hours trying to work out how to undo the effects of the bite, but somehow, racing out on four legs in the moonlight, there was a part of her that revelled in the freedom.
Pirates
“Don’t worry, Captain,” said Liz to her latest captive. “I won’t hurt you. At least, not as long as you hand over your cargo right now!”
Born Another Gender
David Shaw, his tutors said, had a brilliant mind and did well enough, but he seemed to lack the drive needed to propel him to the heights he was capable of – a need to prove himself, perhaps.
Schoolfic
Liz scrunched up another of the mean, anonymous letters and threw it into the fire. Sarah Jane caught it.
“Evidence,” she said, when Liz looked at her. “We might need it.”
“I don’t understand why anyone would hate me,” she said. “What did I do?”
Jo sighed. “Well, maybe if you came last in something just once in a while, it might help,” she offered and then shrugged at their looks. “It works for me.”
Police/Firefighters
“Look, Dr Shaw, I assure you I didn’t murder that man and if you’re the brilliant forensics expert you claim and not a numbskull like DI Stewart here, you’ll soon realise it!”
Liz gave the prisoner a sharp look, raising an eyebrow at his eccentric clothing – but on the other hand, there was something very odd about that dead body…
Urban Fantasy
“Fairies?” said Liz, not even bothering to hide her laughter. “And is this why you’ve summoned me here from Cambridge, Brigadier? You must be mad!”
“Not just fairies, Miss Shaw – UNIT has been set up to deal with vampires, werewolves, leprechauns –”
“What,” she said, in scornful disbelief, “not little green men?”
Regency
Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart was, Miss Elizabeth Shaw decided, the most infuriating, patronising man she had ever met. Unfortunately, he also seemed to be the only gentleman in the district who wasn’t completely terrified of her reputation as a bluestocking…

I'm not sure whether that's better or worse, really... :lol:

Unless it's a space western type thing, of course, but they're a breed of their own!
