A Guide to Ranma 1/2 FanFiction. 30-Dec-1994
============================================
This is an incomplete list of Ranma 1/2 FanFiction available on the
internet. All these stories (and more) should be available at Megazones
FanFiction archive at ftp.std.com (I think that's the address).
This listing reflects the contents of my personal collection, which is less
complete than the full rec.arts.anime.stories archive.
Anyone who wishes to add other FanFics to this list, or to correct any
details I may have gotten wrong please feel free to do so.
The order the entries are listed in reflects the order they appear in when I
do a DIR command - it has no relation to any logical sequence.

The story that shows that you too can be all-powerful in your own story,
still is better done than "MisAdventures of a Foreign Exchange Student",
all powerful is easier to handle than completely perfect.
