wickedwords: Origin Stories - To my way of thought, most people start in fandom within a single community founded on a very focused interest, whether that interest be a TV show, a book, a movie, or a whole genre of stuff. -
- miriam_heddy: Plagiarism, Pastiche, and Transformative Work (some thinky thoughts from a writing teacher) - [...]up to the courts to decide if the work is "transformative"--and the writer's claim that it was meant to be transformative won't matter. The trick will be to somehow get the judge to "read" the text[...]as the fanfiction's intended audience reads it -
- alixtii: A Prescriptivist Take on Plagiarism - The "plagiarism = use without attribution" meme is going around again, and[...]it really, really bugs me because by that standard Ezra Pound and T.S. Eliot are both plagiarists--and[...]that conclusion is for me a reductio ad absurdum. -
- mamadeb: Fanfiction, Crafting and Women's Work (long) - One person compared fanfiction and the community around it to a quilting bee, and I *like* that image. I think the poster thought it was funny, but I don't. -
