If you have came across some Captain Scarlet fan fiction on the net, or if you had write one, fell free to communicate with me, so I can put up a link to it. If you don't own a web page, and want to insert one of your own stories, submit it. Maybe we'll be able to come to some arrangement. Just write to me at spectrum_hq@hotmail.com. My fanfic pages are fairly new, and I'm looking forward to add some stories in it. If they are done with quality, taste and respect to the series (I can still dig funny, however. See the Princey story), they will find a place on my site. That's why I'm counting on the collaboration of all the fans who will visit my pages. Thanks!
