Author has written 12 stories for Castle.

Formerly known as KiwiOCD

Now 50-something male with moderate to severe OCD syndrome (depends on your point of view - my "One and Done" definitely thinks it's the latter).
Don't watch too much other TV but I did watch Castle (repeatedly).

Completely in awe of the stupendous abilities and talent of authors including purplangel, NevynR, chezchuckles, Kate Christie, Stephxy, Shutterbug5269, DeBo81, evitascarlett, kimmiesjoy & brookemopolitan amongst others.

Yes, I'm a shipper (that should be apparent if you have read Charlie P and One of Us).

I try to write Rick Castle as a more mature, serious character and less of the semi-permanent joker that the writers seem to have drifted back to in Season 5 and onwards. We don't mention Season 8 here.

My second ever story 'Charlie P' was nominated for 'Best AU (Alternate Universe) Fic' in the 12th Precinct Fan Awards 2013

UPDATE - 10 May 2020

I do have some other Castle stories outlined. No none are anywhere near the size of One of Us, and I will have them ready before posting.

I have 3 stories in draft:-

The Odd Couple - 2 or 3 chapters, currently about 70% complete

Mother's Son - 3-4 chapters, currently about 50% complete

Velvet - another chapter for Two of Us, currently about 95% complete.

The Commitment by GeekMom reviews
Castle's been absent. Character study set somewhere in the spring of Season 2. I like to create back-stories for these wonderful characters and give them opportunities to flesh out their "off-camera" lives a bit. Marlowe & Miller et al own Castle and my heart. I only own my imagination, creativity, and excitement.

The Fix reviews
Welcome to 'The Fix' - or 'Fixing (Season) Five' if you like. The concept is to rewrite Castle Season 5. It will be fixing what I and/or others didn't like or even wished could have been done better, or simply was not shown. I am seeking input and contributions from Fan Fiction & 12th Precinct members. Please PM or leave a review. This is my Castle Hiatus 2013 Ficathon entry.

Charlie P reviews
There's so much of Beckett that Castle doesn't know. She's not good at sharing her past and Castle knows now not to push (too much). But every so often a little bit of her history will be revealed and shared between them. As they learn and share more, their relationship will change. Set sometime in late Season 5 or perhaps Season 6.

What's My Number reviews
Beckett and Castle once discussed their numbers in reference to sexual partners, but for Javier Esposito, former Special Forces marksman, his number meant something entirely different.
