Well, this is a bit awkward.
I'm quite surprised that nearly everyone in this thread hasn't given up on their fanfic ideas. My problem, I suppose, isn't the inception of the ideas or the plotting of what would happen but the expression and written word. I once had (at least) four active Sailor Moon universes that active played in my head. Two were of the universes where technically alternate universes, and one was supposed to fit into what I thought was the canon timeline, albeit tightly. That's not counting all of the one-shot stories such as:
Sailor Andromeda -- My own fan episode set in the Doom Tree arc, where Alan and Ann got the bright idea to have Ann pose as a Sailor Scout to get close to the Sailor Scouts. (This was inspired by "Mirror, Mirror On The Wall" since I thought Ann's address to the Cardian reminded me of the Sailor Scouts' speeches before they got their power-ups.) I later created a character for the "main" fanfic universe, Sailor Andromeda, who was a real Sailor Scout, but that's a different character altogether.
(Untitled Comedy) -- Sailor Moon uses her Crescent Moon Wand on an enemy, turning it into a human. Too bad the enemy was originally a monster from the Negaverse to begin with.
The Grey Lady -- As Serena grows closer to her friends, she ignores signs that Molly is going through a tough time and shows signs of depression. Soon Molly finds out about her own secret heritage. Her mama really was from the Negaverse, and she is destined to go up against Sailor Moon.
Moon Plasma Power -- A terrible, terrible crossover of Sailor Moon and the Mega Man cartoon series. Now that I think about it, this was not a one-shot, but a series of five stories of which I only completed one. (edit: I eventually posted the portion I completed on the board and linked to it.)
To get an idea of scale, the smallest of the universes ran five story arcs, and each story arc had at least one story in it, and my stories tend to be at least 10,000 words. Since it would take me four to six months to get to that 10,000 word mark, I eventually realized I would never finish any of my story arcs of Sailor Moon, so I gave them up.

Nangbaby, your one-shot ideas sound really interesting. If you ever get back into writing I'd definitely read them.
Your post kind of made me realize I have an alternate SM universe in my head too, only it's a slightly different version of R. When I was in high school I created my own Sailor Nemesis, and as I got older I kept tweaking her to fit in more and more with the Black Moon family. Eventually I just ended up reimagining the whole R series from a darker perspective, and it would be fun to write if I ever felt like it. I miss writing fanfiction sometimes.

I've had ideas for some post-Stars stories that would, among other plot points:
*Reintroduce Queen Beryl as the central (but not the only) antagonist, as well as bring back and expand on other lesser characters both good and bad.
*Incorporate elements from the "Another Story" RPG, such as having Sin appear as a frequent rival and have her build up to Apsu's appearence over time.
*Take a look into what the city thinks of the Sailors. Many people love them, some dislike them, a few think they're just as much threats as the monsters they fight. Basically, look at the concept from other angles.
However, most of them never seem to get typed up for some reason or another, though I did recently put up a Part 1 for one idea I had involving Mimete on my DeviantArt page.

I was in the process of making a Sailor Saturn fanfic.
However I canceled it all and instead is making Rosette Christopher fanfics and Garrett(From Thief) fanfics after reading Chrono Crusade and playing Thief recently.It easier for me to make them like they were from their respective franchises unlike Sailor Saturn(where I always got every line and action out of character and wrong).

I still have my unoriginal idea for Sailor Earth. I named her Kazuko..pretty sure the kanji means harmony. In my story, she was a relative of Prince Endymion (sister or cousin something like that) who died during the dark kingdoms rein. She was reincarnated as Kazuko on earth in present day and somehow figures out she's actually Sailor Earth. I thought about giving her a talking cat or maybe even an bird to give her information. Kazuka becomes increasingly envious of Sailor Moon and her victories and vows to take over her role as leader of the senshi and even kill off Mamoru so he can't get in the way..pretty dumb huh?

I've had a Sailor Moon/DBZ Crossover plot in my head for years. Still can't form the words 
Writing used to be so easy when I was younger. I could type pages and pages of fanfic but now I can't even get out a paragraph

No, it's not dumb at all. It probably could use a little refinement, but that doesn't make the idea dumb.
As someone who is completely unfamiliar with this version of Grendel, I am both confused and tempted to read this crossover.
If you wanna know more about Grendel, check out the wikipedia entry:

Or the ComicVine entry (recommended):

There are also some fan sites that you can find using google.

Thanks for the the info. That is a lot to absorb, though, and I'm wondering how the disparity in tones would play out. Just from the summaries you've linked to, that would be a very dark fanfic.
Going to bed, I am, but I found another old idea of mine. This is an in-character profile for the character I created, who would be the ultimate enemy for Sailor Moon...or rather her granddaughter. Here goes nothing...
