    Hello All,

    I'm working on some Bond fan-fiction and I'm thinking about having him work somewhere other than MI6 or SIS, but I'm having trouble finidng someplace else. I don't know if I should use a real Organization or perhaps make my own.

    I was going to make up my own but my creativity is a little dry when it comes to making up organizations, they either turn out cliche or unimaginative. Any suggestions?

    Maybe you should think about giving up being a writer then if thats the case. Or perhaps you want us to write the entire book for you?

    I got to say that's probably the rudest comment I've ever heard, if you don't want to give a suggestion or help someone out just don't post

    Harsh that. And rather rude in an unnecessary way.

    I agree. WizardOrifice is a being a bit of an arse with that comment.

    And why not MI6? Well, you can make up your own rogue organization (think of the plot lines of Alias and Nikita - it's been done so often). Maybe take a consipiracy theory group (Bilderberg??) and make it real in your book; only with a twist, so Bond is working for good not evil (I am just assuming Bond is a good guy in your fiction). Everyone thinks they are just some weird group that has a "conspiracy theory" rep but that is just their cover story. Ah well, just a thought.

    :-? Maybe some sort of Spy for hire type organisation. That isn't acutally MI6, but maybe MI6 and other intelligence organisations sometimes secretly pay them to do their dirty work, or anyone who has money and wants some sort of job done that a spy could do. I can't really think of a name though.

    Or maybe some sort of agency that hasn't existed for years, like MI9. Maybe they never actually closed, they've just been operating top secretly.

    How about SMERSH?

    Or create a European Union/United Nations version of MI6?

    Good luck with it :)

    How about the new (and real) American espionage unit called the DCS.

    Its a military based espionage program for the US; full title: Defense Clandestine Service

    They don't have to be 'villains' but they could get in Bond's way.

    Not technically. Now Russia has the SVR run its external intelligence and FSB its domestic intelligence.

    Good point. And the KGB has always carried with it a scary and acrane shadow that still lingers. They were brutal as hell, so it suits.

    The past tense doesn't fit. It should be present tense. ;)
