Ok I googled and I am still confused, whats a "tradpub pipeline "?

(Anonymous) 2024-01-28 08:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Filing off the serial numbers of the fanfic and shoving it on Amazon.

(Anonymous) 2024-01-28 08:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah ok thanks for the info. I thought it was related to tradwife, lol.

(Anonymous) 2024-01-28 09:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Lmao I'm glad I wasn't the only one. I was over here like, "..."Reylos turn Catholic? What?"

(Anonymous) 2024-01-28 09:09 pm (UTC)(link)
NA

Does the "trad" not stand for traditional? I would have thought that the Amazon route isn't the traditional publishing pipeline, but the new one with less prestige attached since it's self publishing.

Tradpub means traditionnaly published by a publishing house. It's the opposite of self-publishing.

Plenty of writers did that back in the day. Diana Gabaldon was one; also Twilight started as Dark Shadows fanfic. It goes back to the '70s at least.

Lois McMaster Bujold's first Barrayar book was initially a Klingon/Starfleet human story. She didn't publish it anywhere in that form, but she has talked about it you can definitely see the bones of it! That was published in 1986.

Diana Gabaldon who famously called fanfic 'white slavery' and that if you wrote about her characters having consenusal sexy times (despite amount of rape in her stories) it was like raping her/her family?

(Anonymous) 2024-01-29 05:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. Her books started as Doctor Who fanfic.

Cassandra Clare famously slapped new names onto Ginny and Draco and released the Mortal Instruments

(Anonymous) 2024-01-29 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
Mortal Instruments was originally an incest fic. It was Ginny and Ron.

(Anonymous) 2024-01-29 04:29 am (UTC)(link)
The title was from an incest fic, but aren't the characters in her series are off-brand Ginny and Draco? That's always the impression that I got, though I've never read or watched any of it.

(Anonymous) 2024-01-29 07:19 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, Jace has very Draco-in-leather-pants levels of energy. Actually, doesn't the term even stem from CC's fic?

(Anonymous) 2024-01-29 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
I kinda can’t imagine it getting talked about in zines back then, but I didn’t get into zines until a few years after ROTJ.

I’d be shocked if there weren’t tradpub books that started as SW fic though. I read a romance novel in the late 80s (that had Fabio on the cover lol) that I swore was based on Han/Leia.

(Anonymous) 2024-01-29 07:22 am (UTC)(link)
It probably was. There were quite a few Star Wars fanfic authors who went pro by filing off the serial numbers.
