(sorry for not replying individually!)
First of all I assure you I'm not a troll :) but if you don't believe that, it's fine. I just wanted to admit it to someone, even if it was anonymously :)

I may come out publicly and say I use the fandom, but I'll never admit my username or fics I've written, because it would sort of cheapen them. Maybe that seems strange?

(and no, I'm not JKR :p)

I am so very curious.
I am sitting here thinkin of every author I know, ever.

Re: OP

[identity profile] zanzou-chan.livejournal.com 2009-06-24 09:32 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm still interested in knowing what genre of fics you write, or at least whether or not you're writing to play with things you could only SECRETLY ship as you wrote them.

Re: OP

(Anonymous) 2009-06-24 09:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Technically any story written by the original author wouldn't be considered *fan*fiction. :P

That's probably why the author's hiding her (?) identity -- so that things don't get taken as the Word Of God and make fans uncomfortable.

I don't know why not... I know Mangaka sometimes make doujins of their own work. It's not supposed to be canon. It's just the author having some fun writing what-ifs that either couldn't work in the canon, or would be unpublishable (too dirty) in the canon.

I'm thinkin' the Gravitation remixes. You thinkin' the Gravitation remixes? 8D

OT, but omg, I have almost the exact same icon, only with Kakashi XD

Re: OP

[identity profile] verschreibsel.livejournal.com 2009-06-24 09:36 pm (UTC)(link)
But wouldn't we know if a somewhat popular author said they used fandom? And do the math?

Re: OP

[identity profile] cxrdevil.livejournal.com 2009-06-24 09:38 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't care what fandom you're in (creator of? ah this is so weird,) or whether you ever share it, but I think you are super cool and withhold the internet troll cynicism reaction. Rock on, OP!

If you love the characters so much, why give them up? You don't have to write books. Short stories can be fun.

And I don't see it cheapening the fics if you admit your username. I think writing the fics is giving the fans of the characters a gift.

[identity profile] scarlet-carsons.livejournal.com 2009-06-24 09:48 pm (UTC)(link)
If you love the characters so much, why give them up?

I'm guessing that it's down to the fact that publishing a book takes more work than a fanfic.

Re: OP

(Anonymous) 2009-06-24 09:49 pm (UTC)(link)
I second this. One of my favorite authors, Kelley Armstrong, writes short stories of her characters which she sometimes posts online.

OP (If you aren't a troll) you could make a blog where you post them for your fans, I'm sure they'd appreciate it.

Yes, and you can gather enough of them to go into a book later. How many SF authors have done that? Ray Bradbury comes to mind as one.

Hi random anon, I love Kelley Armstrong, that is all.

I have to say that kind of makes me smile.

Do you change your writing level for fanfic? Is it always canon-based or do you explore other areas? Other couples? Either way it sounds like fun. :D

Nice try, troll.

You say you're not JKR, but you didn't mention SM. Could this mean you're her? Hm.

Re: OP

[identity profile] velvet-mace.livejournal.com 2009-06-24 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
I have a few authors I wish would do what you are doing -- but sadly, you can't be them because they have virtually no fanfic written that they can hide theirs in.

Re: OP

[identity profile] rabbitucker.livejournal.com 2009-06-24 10:40 pm (UTC)(link)
You know, you don't have to keep writing books to keep doing things with your characters. I know a lot of novelists are writing expansions or otherwise developing adaptations in conjunction with comic book companies. If the licence is written in your favor or if you work with a company that publishes creator-owned materials then you get the final say-so of everything that goes into it.

Plus, you know... *ka-ching*!

Not the OP

[identity profile] lulibit.livejournal.com 2009-06-25 02:11 am (UTC)(link)
but maybe they can't for legal reasons? Like, now the characters are owned by some conglomerate (telling us anything about that might help narrow it down too much) and now they can only write their own characters for the profit of some one else. That would include short stories.

I don't know, maybe this is just a variation on "I would totally write fanfic if I were a well known author" secrets. Not troll (seriously people, troll is reserved for an obvious attempt to pick a fight) but attention-seeker?

While it might amuse fans to admit you've read a few fics since your series concluded, I'd advise against admitting you're a ficcer, because once fandom knows you exist, some clever little thing will figure out who you are and out you.

Then they will pick apart every fanfic you wrote. Fandom is like a warm cup of tea, but you don't want to look at how they make the artificial sweetener that goes into it, or something horrible will probably bite your nose off. This is how the internet seems to work, god knows why.
