Guns and Grapple:
Fanfiction

Over the years hundreds of fans have wrote and posted their fan fiction on the internet. It has played an important part of the franchise. Every fan has a different writing style and I think it is interesting how the writers portray Lara, even though the authors play the games and watches the movies they will always add a slight addition to Lara's personality.

Making great fan fiction is sometimes very hard; it takes a lot of imagination and understanding of the character that you are writing about. Even famous authors and fan fiction writers get stuck once in a while. Hopefully this site will help new tomb raider fan fiction writers.. It is your fan fiction and you can set your own settings, themes, and ingredients. If the games inspire you, you can get ideas for stories but it is another thing when it comes to sewing the ideas together.

Ostercy (Tomb Raider Writer) has written "The Lara Canon" and if you are writing or planning to write your own TR stories you defintenly would want to read this. It tells you about Lara's personalities and how far you can take Lara as well as many other tips, it is also humourous and an excellent piece. Click here.

We have three interviews with popular tomb raider writers and features on two on the authors with a third one just around the corner. The interview are with Ostercy, Katie Fleming and Tomb Raider Girl and we are trying to get more soon hopefully. I would like to say a big THANK YOU! to the all the authors for their time and effort in the interviews and for all being such a pleasure to work with.
