If you have any links relating to Relic Hunter or writing please post them in a comment here. They will be gratefully received, and added to this list.

If you want to plug any of your own, personal Live Journals, websites, ff.n profiles please do so in a separate thread.

Relic Hunter related:
http://tanyareed.proboards82.com/index.cgi]Going Hunting[/url] -- A great site made by Angie and Katy where you can discuss absolutely anything to do with Relic Hunter. Also includes discussions on historical visits/events, Relic Hunter pictures, and stimulating weekly fanfiction challenges.

http://www.geocities.com/relichunterfanfic/index.htm]Going Hunting Archive[/url] -- The site that caused the production of our forum; the two sites kind of run alongside. Private archive of the stories of two of the best Relic Hunter fanfic writers - feel honoured if you're invited to be one of their "Guest Writers!"

http://nigelstravels.proboards102.com/index.cgi]Nigel's Travels[/url] -- A forum dedicated to Christien Anholt. Contains lots of great screen-caps.

http://imdb.com/title/tt0207919/]Imdb[/url] -- Relic Hunter on the Internet Movie Database. Contains information about the series, actors, as well as trivia and quotes.

http://www.tv.com/relic-hunter/show/2470/episode_listings.html]Episode Guide[/url] -- Listings of each episode of all three series, including brief summary of each one and fan ratings.

Fanfiction related:
www.fanfiction.net]Fanfiction.net[/url] -- A large site with many hundreds of stories in just about any fandom you can think of, with the useful option of reviewing each and every chapter. You will find many of the stories archived on our forum also on ff.n.

http://www.geocities.com/relichunterfanfic/index.htm]Going Hunting Archive[/url] -- See above.

http://maeglinyedi.livejournal.com/110526.html]Guide To Leaving Feedback[/url] -- "Maeg's" guide to leaving appropriate feedback on fanfiction.

http://www.subreality.com/glossary.htm]The Fanfiction Glossary[/url] -- Glossary of terms used in fanfiction.

http://community.livejournal.com/hazel_recs/744.html]Fanfiction Terms[/url] -- much shorter, briefer glossary of the most widely used terms.

http://hesychasm.livejournal.com/187818.html]What Is Fandom?[/url] -- By "hesychasm", a wonderfully well-written, inspiring examination on what being part of a fandom really means. Useful if you're trying to explain to someone outside the world of fandoms, but also just an excellent read - particularly if you're feeling dispirited about your fandom/fanfiction!

Writing Resources:
www.fictionpress.com]FictionPress.com[/url] -- Sprung off several years ago from Fanfiction.net. This is the place to post your original writing.

www.nanowrimo.org]NaNoWriMo[/url] -- Stands for "National Novel Writing Month". Every November, thousands of writers sign up and try to write a 50,000 'novella' in 30 days. An amazing experience if you take part, and hugely interesting threads in the forums. If you've got a question, someone's bound to know the answer!

www.dictionary.com]Online dictionary[/url] -- Quick and easy to use.

www.pantheon.org/]Encyclopedia Mythica[/url] -- large encyclopaedia for all things mythological.

http://www.theoi.com/]Theoi[/url] -- Website for exploring Greek mythology. Great resource for writing in this genre.

http://www.surlalunefairytales.com/]Sur La Lune Fairy Tales[/url] -- Run by Heidi Anne Heiner, this is an excellent site on fairy tales. Containing 47 annotated stories, plus information about related tales, recommended reading, and a CafePress store!

www.behindthename.com]Behind The Name[/url] -- A great website about names including name meanings, related names and name popularity. Also has sections for names from mythology. Particularly handy for writers of original fiction, when you just can't find that name you want.

http://surnames.behindthename.com/]Behind The Surname[/url] -- The last name version of "Behind The Name". Includes meanings and nationalities.

http://www.lowchensaustralia.com/names/england.htm]Names of UK[/url] -- Lists of United Kingdom names sorted by ethnicity (English, Scottish, Welsh, Irish, Cornish), including things like English faerie names, Elizabethan names, Medieval names, place names, etc!

http://elizabethan.org/compendium/home.html]Life in Elizabethan England[/url] -- "A Compendium of Common Knowledge" with articles on everything about living in Elizabethan England, from games to religion to weddings.

http://members.shaw.ca/jobev/articles.html]Articles on Writing[/url] - contains advice on writing, with articles on getting historic details accurate (such as titles of the Peerage and Georgian costumes).
