I'm doing the final edits on my first now. At nearly 50.
I've been aware of fanfiction for a while. I don't really remember how I first found out about it, but I'm heavy into remix culture (like fan-edits and mashups). I assume it was somewhere in that mix.
I have some ideas for other fics, but I'm not sure I'll write another. This one I felt deserved to be written, but the others are just zany ideas.
Ok. Imma get lambasted for this, but here goes.
I have no problem seeing ads. I respect that if I'm getting a commercial product or service for 'free', then I'm paying another way.
If I have to see ads, why not see ads that might be relevant to my interests? I mean, I'd rather see an ad for a video game than a bank.
I don't see what all the FUD is about. What the fuck are y'all surfing that you're so protective of?
