elfwreck: Anti-fanfic bingo, Line Three - So… this beautiful song, that rings in my head more than twenty years after I heard it, that convinced me to read some of Yarbro's books (which I liked, but never stood out as favorites), that got me to research and read other articles about an intriguing historical figure… can't be shared. -
- ignazwisdom: Why I'm supporting the Organization for Transformative Works - My name is Iggy and I support and work on (and really kind of love) the Organization for Transformative Works.[...]I'm not an academic, I'm not a Big Name Fan (and I'm quite happy to stay that way, thank you!), but I am an OTW person, and this is why -
- kassrachel: Why I Joined the OTW - The OTW is pretty much the coolest thing since toast, if you ask me. (And I like toast. *g*) Basically, I joined the OTW because I like the idea of being part of an organization that aims to protect and preserve this awesome part of my life. -
- capncosmo: Is it Teal Deer season again? - In the meta I linked above, coffee_mug suggests (rightly) that there is a lot of stereotyping involved in the yaoi genre of Japanese gay relationships. Well, not only yaoi, but how Japanese people think of gays in general. -
- beren_writes: AUs - So I became curious, because it's amazing how even in fandom we use the same terminology and yet it means different things to different people. How do you define an AU? -
- thelana: [in foxriver_fic]What do you consider AU?[...]could be argued that fan fiction is non canon by definition and that 95% of fic is probably not canon consistent in some way and that in that way all fiction is an AU from canon.
So, any thoughts on this? Anybody else have personal AU rules?
