I've never written any fan fiction myself, but I know my daughter has. She used to enjoy doing that alot. Not that she ever shared it with anyone, but she did do it. :D This is also the one who says she doesn't want to be a writer, LOL. Why wouldn't anyone want to do that? It amazes me. :DSierra Wolfehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09815380178844582560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6419252667281484963.post-77630925003532026102009-03-28T16:10:00.000-05:002009-03-28T16:10:00.000-05:00I do like fan-fiction, after all, we are all fans ...I do like fan-fiction, after all, we are all fans of something or another, aren't we?<BR/><BR/>But...<BR/><BR/>I really don't know how I'd react if it was written with my characters from my books.

In a way...Gracen, <BR/><BR/>I am of two minds on fan fiction. In a way it is incredibly complimentary that people would love an author's characters so much that others would want to write about them. On the other hand, I would freak the fuck out if someone used my characters in such a way. That's the control freak in me talking. It would feel like someone stealing from me. I just know it. <BR/><BR/>Other than that, it sounds like you used it as a great learning/writing exercise and for me, anything you can learn from or help you grow as a writer is wonderful. <BR/><BR/>I'm a perpetual (read compulsive) outliner and character sketcher. When I sit down to write a novel, I've already written out complete interviews with my characters and know them like close friends. However, they still have the propensity to surprise me every now and then, which is cool. But I know them as people and it helps with goals, motivation, conflict so much. <BR/><BR/>Great post!<BR/><BR/>-KateKathleen Scott/MK Mancoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14872072913152568070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6419252667281484963.post-42991951619940844092009-03-28T14:50:00.000-05:002009-03-28T14:50:00.000-05:00I think you should add a technorati button.
