About the LotS canon especially. ;) Oh, yes. Definitely. Undone is probably my most straightforwardly 'fix it' fic; leaving things up in the air with Dahlia and Cara's son really bothered me.
And then Lord and Lady Rahl is more a reaction to the fandom as well as canon - when I wrote it, all the fanfic I could find about Reckoning put the emphasis on how unbearable it would be for Kahlan to let Darken Rahl touch her, she was thinking of Richard the whole time, etc. Which I feel neglects and trivializes much more important issues for her, such as the shock of losing Richard and the conflict between her training and her emotions over Nicholas, the male Confessor and her son. (Of course, we've discussed Reckoning a lot by now, but back then I hadn't met all the wonderful Darklings :D)
