Book 'em Again

Aloha!

Just for fun: my penname is a direct play on one of Five-O’s episode titles. Can you guess which one? The answer is at the bottom of my profile.

Having been born years after Five-O ended, I only discovered the show thanks to an insane senior year of college and a good friend who thought that watching an episode would help me keep my sanity by forcing me to put down the books for an hour. She thought her job was done when I fell in love with the show but little did she know that this love would turn into an obsession and that obsession would lead me to the world of fan fiction.

I write for fun and with the hope that my stories will capture the spirit of the show. I have this somewhat overambitious plan of writing a plethora of stories that complements and expands on the show by writing about some of the other adventures that Steve, Danno and the rest of the gang find themselves in. My plan is for my stories to span pre-series to post-series and everything in-between. How much of this plan I will get to remains to be seen but it’s good to have a goal, right?
I write mostly gen case-centric stories, although there is some other randomness mixed in. Most of my stories fit into a timeline so check ‘remarks’ in the summary to see where they fall. While all my stories are written so that they can be read independently, I do recommend that you read any story marked ‘pre-series’ in chronological order as they do tell a larger story.

Also, note that I post my stories under the same penname on FanFiction.net but there are a couple on this site that for stylistic reasons I can’t post on the other.

Finally, the answer to the question about my penname is that it was inspired by season seven’s “I’ll Kill ‘em Again.”
