That's disturbing. You're emotionally scarred and will end up badly.

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.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

That is a great article. So much better than the ones that came before

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I would actually consider pointing people to that one.

I understand the author set up a journal where he asked people in the fanfic community for input, and he was vetted by someone with the Organization for Transformative Works.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

In one of those minus-breadcrumbs sideslips through FoF journals, I came upon this rather lengthy essay on fandom and fic. It starts out about the western, which I know is anathema to many, but only to use the demise of the western to illustrate the possible, even probable course of fandom, and fic, in the future. I thought some might find it interesting. It's here.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Does GRRM have a stated stance on fanart?

I don't know. It does seem to be all over the place.

Because books.

Didn't the Time article say he was okay with fanfic? I can't remember now, but if he's okay with that, he's probably fine with art, too. Or I would assume so.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

GRRM is not particularly okay with fanfic, no. Unless he's changed his stance recently.
