Has anyone here in the free stories section of the internet ever taken unfinished works of de Sade and finished them, either as their own works or as a collaboration with de Sade?

Collaboration would be tricky, the dude died in 1814.

Does your collaborator necessarily have to be alive?

If you want dialogue then yes. You wanna dance with Michael Jackson or duet with Nat King Cole then you just need a serious media budget.

I don't think it's a "collaboration" if you are writing new works based on the works of someone who lived 200 years ago.
There's a lot of fertile ground in de Sade's work for writing new works, or -- more interesting to me -- taking some plot ideas and updating them to a modern setting. There's no copyright, so one shouldn't hesitate to do it, although it might be appropriate to offer an acknowledgment.
To publish them on Lit you have to be a bit careful because de Sade doesn't observe the content limits in force here.
