Bonanza Fan Fiction
Joe Stories


 
Joe is either the star or co-star in each of these stories.   AS, BS or HS after the author's name means one of the other original cast characters costars. AR means the story presents an alternative to series canon but takes place in the familiar Bonanza old west world.  AU means the story takes place in an alternative universe - modern, scifi, medieval, etc.  PT means the story is post-timeline. SC means characters other than original cast Cartwrights play a large role. YC means the story takes place prior to the timeline of the Bonanza pilot episode.   DF means death fic.
