Hi there. Don´t worry about it. Fan fiction is about paying tribute to a story we all love. The finished result is not what´s important, but the process of writing and being creative.

On that board I linked you to, there are a variety of threads discussing each a particular story. You will find links to the story in many of the posts. Unfortunately many of the links don't work any more, because the stories have since been taken down and/or people have closed their accounts.
Many of the stories were posted on Livejournal.com, and there's still lots of stories still up over there. I believe there's also still discussions going on about different stories.
I did a search for you, and found this. You can try for yourself to click around and see what you find. I may help to become a member over at LJ.

No, I definitely don't think you are crazy. Numerous people transformed the emotional impact they felt from the movie into creativity: writing, art, music.
Many people who had never written one word of fiction before started to write stories.
I don't know what your native language is, but there are stories in German and Spanish too, and probably other languages as well.

I'm glad you found Findingbrokeback!
It's a site with a multitude of information about BBM, interviews among others.
And yes, screen caps from deleted scenes.

Hi Postcard,
As far as "after" is concerned, the revised version of the short story - as opposed to the initial version which was first published in the New Yorker magazine - opens with a description of Ennis, alone in his trailer, getting up around 5am. How much time has passed since Jack's death is unclear but as there is a reference to Ennis's "grey wedge of belly and pubic hair", clearly this is a much older Ennis. Nevertheless, Jack is still very much with him as, on waking, "he is suffused with a sense of pleasure because Jack Twist was in his dream". And the two shirts are still very much with him.
