... you can't equate wanting comments for fanfiction and anting PAYMENT for fanfiction. One is all very well and good. The other is ILLEGAL!

For some reason, a writer wanting comments is judged harshly and if they want to get paid it's even worse ("BUT IT'S ILLEGAL!"), but selling fanart is also illegal, yet most people support it.

And all those "support artist by rebloging/something else" posts on tumblr are always supported by most people too, even by the ones complaining about entitled writers that dare to want comments.

The double standards can't be more obvious.

nayrt - It annoys me, too. As a writer, you can't charge money for your fanfic because that's BAD even though artists do it all the time. Because you see, writing isn't REAL work, like art! Or whatever. Also, you can't want or like reviews because that's also bad. You shouldn't taint your pure, noble Art by accepting filthy lucre OR praise, otherwise you're an entitled author.

But if I want to commission a poster size drawing of Loki getting his salad tossed by Thor, hey man, that's cool.

Grown up. Just because artist are doing something wrong doesn't mean that you writes should do it too.

(Da)
If artists are getting a free pass, I think writers deserve it too.

What's so wrong about salad tossing between two consenting brothers?

I kid. You miss the point. The general consensus isn't that "Artists are doing something wrong and getting away with it", it's "Artists aren't doing something wrong because fanart is their own interpretation/they have a right to charge for a physical product/they have a right to cover the costs of their own materials/fanart is harder than fanfic and therefore worth money, etc. etc.".

Oh my god something's ILLEGAL! You have won this moral argument!

(Anonymous) 2015-10-21 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
I wasn't aware this was an argument about morals. I was just stating a fact.
