Giles ,'Selfless'
This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.
Maybe I'm jaded, but it doesn't actually surprise me that a fan would over-identify with Elijah Wood and delude herself that she's turning into him.
However, the revelation that other people bought this and continued to defend her against detractors? Makes me want to buy extra locks.
She's been photographed (maybe recently) dressing up as Legolas, on H'wood Blvd, I think.
She showed up in '04 or '05, whenever the most recent HP film came out, dressed up as Harry and standing in line. What a freakin' loon. The difference in her from msscribe is that VB was, well, crazy.
kita's thread was morbidly fascinating. And made me glad that I've never, ever had an experience like that.
Will the fun NEVER stop?
Long ago, Cassandra Claire wrote Ron/Ginny (ugh.)
She plagiarized the very first paragraph of Gone With The Wind.
I hope to hell her real publisher is Googling the manuscript she turns in...
Was that the big Cassandra Claire plagiarism scandal? Or was that something else?
Yowza. This just keeps going and going. I cannot tell you how much time I wasted yesterday and last night. And the fun keeps on coming!
I vividly remember CharityWank, and I do remember seeing something about icongate at the time, though not being an HP person I didn't really follow it.
Pretty sure this one is new. Though god knows I could be wrong.
Quick question - could someone link me to one of the fic "remix" challenges/exchanges that was done in the past year or so?
Thanks!
The big Cassandra Claire scandal was her plagiarizing paragraphs from Pamela Dean, who later gave retroactive permission.
Oh -- that's right.
Thanks.
