LonelyJournal15 - the sequel and conclusion to the LG15 saga


LonelyJournal15: a fan-written sequel and conclusion to the LG15 saga

PLOT SUMMARY: Alexis Capshaw is a lonely girl. Or at least she was until she moved into her new apartment and met her neighbours; unstable and gun-wielding Jonas, friendly yet bizarrely paranoid Daniel, brash and hedonistic Sarah, and Gina, who seems to be suffering from severe trauma of some kind. Alexis expected dealing with her new neighbors would be a challenge, but she never expected fistfights, breaking and entering, gunplay or explosions.

Alexis is starting to miss being lonely...

NOTE: This story is set after LG15: The Resistance, and does not acknowledge the events of The Last and N1kola.

I was going to write some notes here about why I wrote the story, what I think the good bits are, what I think the weak parts are, what the subtext is... but, hopefully, it's all in the work itself. I'll just use this space to admit that some bits have been shamelessly borrowed from Glenn Rubenstein's RedEarth88.

  5. Hi there. In case anyone still wants to read this over a decade after LG15: The Resistance ended on an unresolved cliffhanger, I've recompiled the story on Archive of Our Own which offers web reading, but also ebook formats and PDF. https://archiveofourown.org/works/37670755/chapters/94040431

    2. Also, since I was putting the story back together, I made some adjustments. I had some peculiar comma uses at the time, using them on independent clauses when they were only needed for dependent clauses.

      The original story had some very intense lesbian subtext because, in 2009, I was afraid to write a gay romance.

      But as I was putting the pieces back together, it became clear that the romance was good for the story and was mostly already there, so I added a few paragraphs in one chapter and a few sentences to the last three to make it overt. I wrote this story to give these characters some closure and all the happiness they deserved, after all.

      And finally, I added an epilogue set in the year 2022 where the videos of THE LAST, OUTBREAK and the unfinished 2016 revival are integrated into the LONELYJOURNAL15 storyline while ensuring that Jonas, Sarah, Gina and Daniel's storylines in LJ15 still hold true.
