The Stories of Robert and Susan Thompson

While writing the collected stories of Space:1999 fanfiction which we call the "Florida Universe" we created two characters who seemed to take on a life of their own, appearing with an intricate past to interact with the other characters of the Space:1999 universe in their own unique way. Their stories just demanded to be written, so we have listened to the characters and chronicled their lives, as they have asked us to do. We are unsure as to whether this is still fan fiction, as its basis in Space:1999 canon is completely nonexistant. We know this has nothing to do with science fiction, so if that is what you're looking for, you can turn away now. The Thompson's stories are romantic fiction, sometimes funny, sometimes poignant, and always robustly passionate.

These characters are created by solely for entertainment purposes. We hold the copyright to these stories and will vigorously defend it. You are welcome to link to these stories if you like, however, please do not use the characters in other stories without our express written consent. Writers of the "Florida Universe", we share with you gladly, and you may submit any stories using the characters to me as always.
