Literary Review of Canada takes on fan fiction: [link]
One of the better articles I've read on the subject.
Jinx? If you and Dreg have been using my moisturizer again I'm going to have to rip off your scaly- hey, what's the deal with your face?

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
So I've watched Iron Man and after reading the fabulous Vanity Fair article fic, I've been munching my way through HackThis's fanfic (v. good). Anyone got any links to more Iron Man stories?
Or, for that matter, any Hancock stories?
(I loved that film, but it appears that the critics didn't.)

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
And she's an excellent writer with good taste, so while I've not seen IM yet, I'd guess her del.icio.us is a very good starting point for recs.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
NPR interview with Rebecca Tushnet: [link] . What I'm finding really interesting about this is that with both this and yesterday's canadian article, we're ( = smart parts of nonfannish culture at large) in the middle of a jump straight from "OMG FREAK" to "wait, there are still people who think this isn't legal?"

I waited until mamfidd finished this fic before I posted a link. It's Jack/Ten and one of the most beautiful things I've read. The link is to part 5 of the story because there's links to the other 4 parts there.
