Or, you know, whatever tweaks their kinks.

Nothin'. I just wanted you to face me so she could get behind ya.

Fan Fiction II: Great story! Where's the sequel?
This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
I'm bemused that there would be a proliferation of Ellen/Sam. Or at least - that there would be more Ellen/Sam than Ellen/Dean. But whatever.
Re Sweet Charity ....um, this looks like a lot of fun, but isn't it straying perilously close to selling fanfiction?
I mean, no, obviously the writers aren't personally profiting from the fiction. But the fiction is still being exchanged for currency, albeit said currency is being passed on to a charity.
I find that a bit worrisome. Because I think that keeping very clearly away from the fanfic-for-cash thing is the best strategy to keep The Man off our collective backs. And I really don't WANT The Man on our collective backs. In any but a porny way.
...am I being unreasonably paranoid?

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Or SA, but she is to me as Nestra is to Shrift, so I probably don't really *need* to bid on her.
You are of course right. But people are still bidding for me! Like £25 pounds! That's so exciting.
...am I being unreasonably paranoid?
Perhaps. I mean, fandom has been putting charity auctions together for awhile, and one of the more recent ones was the quite massive and popular one post-Katrina. Besides that, it isn't fanfiction for cash--there's no profit being made here. It's offering a service for a donation, which I think is fundamentally different from selling fanfiction. Fanfiction isn't being sold. A service is offered following a donation, and that service may or may not be fanfiction.
It's not like this Fanlib.net business.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Since you can point at clothing- and jewelry-making being offered on the exact same basis, I think a legal attack might be hard to justify/prosecute.

SA, what do you know about Fanlib.net? A friend of mine just had an encounter with them, and they seem... odd.

You mean other than what Syne posted? Not much, though I checked out the site (whatI could access, anyway),and it looks about as sketch as the TOS reads.

Yeah, okay, I didn't realize you were on that filter too. And yeah, sketch is a good word for it.

Syne and I kicked it old-school, popslash style. It was a pleasant surprise when she went the way of Stargate.
