A round-up of ASOIAF fan art.
But if the world doesn't end, I'm gonna need a note.

This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.

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.

Wikipedia sez:
Martin is strongly opposed to any type of fan fiction, believing it to be copyright infringement and a bad exercise for all aspiring writers.[citation needed] He never gives permission for any of his intellectual property to be used in fan fiction.

GRRM's actually the first person when I think of embargo on fanfic. Then Anne Rice, then Ursula K Le Guin.

Oh! Maybe in the Time article he was named as one of the authors who is against it, then. Oops.
Thanks, Dana.

It will surprise nobody that today's XKCD has already inspired actual Strunk & White fanfiction.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Random fanfic-peripheral questions prompted by a new playlist on a car ride over the weekend: does there exist yet a Kurt/Blaine Glee vid to the Smiths' "Ask"? And if not, why not?
I mean, for crap's sake, YouTube just informed me that someone has used that song for a Thomas the Tank Engine vid. Surely Morrissey deserves better than that.
