Star Encounters: Fantasy Fan Fiction

Did you ever dream about meeting your favorite TYR actor or actress, or did you ever wish that you could have joined the riders in the Express, possibly falling in love with one of them? Here's your chance to either write about an encounter with one of the stars, or to write yourself into an episode/original story.

The 1999 TYR Christmas Carols Contest

Both the TYR Way Station and The Buck Stop sponsored a new fan fiction contest. The idea was to alter a Christmas carol or song and change it so that it was about one of the characters or the show itself. We got some great entries... go check them out!



TYR Mad Libs

Remember those crazy madlibs that you used to do as a kid? Well now there's a TYR version! These madlibs come from actual scenes from the episodes. We post the scene with words missing, and readers send it their revisions.

Valentine's Day 2000 Fan Fiction Contest

This was your chance to make your Valentine dreams comes true... to write a Valentine's Day fan fiction story about yourself and one of the TYR characters! We got some great entries for this!
