This story is in the same AU as Under and Over. Kate is now a prosecutor, Rick is an award-winning author of books exposing the criminal history of well-known figures including Bracken. The story starts with DA Gidon Shapiro and ADA Kate Beckett prosecuting a rich and powerful politician for rape.

This story begins just before the kiss in Knockdown. Only in this version, Rick admits his feelings for Kate and she is forced to respond.

This is an AU story. Nolan suffers a loss. Tim tells Lucy some hard truths. Everyone has to find a way to cope. The cover art is by Artifex Prime.

It's a brand new season of The Rookie, and this story comes in right after the season 4 premiere. It includes SPOILERS for that episode. This tale is not in the same alternate universe as Recovery. It poses two questions: what can Wesley do about the wrenching deal he made and how will Nolan move forward on the job and with Bailey.

Kate decides that she can make more of a contribution as a detective than as a captain. Gates doesn't like that and blames it on Castle. A murder pulls Kate into a much larger investigation.

This is a collection of stories in which I take each episode from Season 8 and change something - hopefully for the better. So they may diverge quite a bit from canon.

Kate goes trousseau shopping with Meredith and finds a body in a changing booth. Suspects are alumni of a special high school. Follows my other AU stories in that Pi is dead and Martha is out of the loft. Otherwise canon, taking place after Dressed to Kill. I own nothing! Follow me on Twitter @CheerfulChemist

This one shot story comes from an idea from Skye Biles. It is Rick's agent Paula's POV of the events of 701 and some of 702. Paula is trying to counteract the toxic effects of the media, deal with her own reactions to Rick's absence and with Kate's. I own nothing. The m rating is for language.

A collection of stories changing something, to change the direction or portrayal of an episode. These are mostly unrelated and are out of order. They don't essentially change canon. Chapters stand alone and feature many different forms and writing styles As usual, I own nothing, but Castle lives in my dreams. Follow me on twitter @CheerfulChemist

Post 705. Castle has infected vocal chords and isn't supposed to talk. He's trying to keep Alexis fron freaking out from overblown concern for him and also working on a murder with Kate. Someone shot the manager of a big box store. As usual I own nothing but am solidly addicted to these characters. I'll alert you to postings if you want to follow me on Twitter @CheerfulChemist

This is a follow up to my story Father Figure, an explanation of why Castle was abducted. Things will make more sense if you read Father Figure first. Castle's brain was filled with information as a child and he needs to learn what and why. As usual, I own nothing. Follow me on Twitter @CheerfulChemist

This is my drabble for the Castle Fan Fic Writers Guild. My word is Snowman. The Snowman is a serial killer. This is strictly for laughs. Of course I own nothing. Follow me on Twitter @CheerfulChemist

I figured out a way that Castle could show that the video feed had been tampered with in Probable Cause. This story starts after Tyson Visits Castle's cell. Castle still has to prove his innocence. AU As usual I own nothing but wish I did. Follow me on Twitter @CheerfulChemist

This is a one shot speculation about what happened to Castle. It is immediately post the S6 finale and incorporates spoilers that are currently available. Something from Castle's early life has caused him to be abducted. He struggles to be free while Kate searches for him. I hope to make this converge with S7. I own nothing.

This story starts after Aunt Theresa and before Dressed to Kill. Was the showrunner killed by an angry fan, a cast member or someone else? The players may seem strangely familiar. This is mostly for fun, although the murder is serious. It is AU in that it follows my other stories. As usual, I own nothing, but I really do love AWM. Follow me on Twitter @CheerfulChemist

This story is post 706. Jim Beckett writes to his dead wife Johanna about the wedding and events that follow. It includes descriptions of his work and Rick' and Katie's cases. The story goes through Christmas There are spoilers through 710. This is independent of my other stories. Of course I own nothing.

Beckett's Aunt Theresa finds a body at Theresa's Public House. Beckett and Castle are on the case. This story takes place a couple of days after Limelight and follows from my others, but you don't have to read them to get it. It's mostly cannon. There's some insight into Beckett's genes here. Get Martha out of the loft? As usual, I own nothing. Follow me on twitter @CheerfulChemist

Castle and Beckett search for a killer and a wedding venue. A church leader is dead in Manhattan but the trail leads to the town of Phaedra in upstate New York. Rick and Kate find a lovely B & B and look at both suspects and beautiful places. This story is slightly AU and follows from my others. It takes place after Deep Cover. I own nothing. Follow me on twitter @CheerfulChemist

This story happens after "Under Fire." It is AU in that Pi is gone and follows from my other stories but other than that, it is cannon. Kate has injured her ankle and can't wear heels. We'll see how that affects her outlook. Flats also refers to the pallets at the murder scene. I own nothing, but trust in AWM and company. Follow me on twitter @CheerfulChemist.

This is a unified collection taking place in S7 beginning after the S6 finale. It will feature multiple voices and styles including Jim Beckett's Journal, writings from Richard Castle, and Mop and Broom, somewhat like Moment in Time, with both angst and humor, but with everything in order,don't own Castle Summer Hiatus Ficathon 2014 entry Follow me on Twitter @CheerfulChemist
