I'm thrilled that anything I wrote would inspire another person to create.
This. So much this. I love it when I get in conversations with people and we go off and write something and then we come back and bounce off each other again and go write something different. It's the best kind of chemistry for me.
I do not write fanfic with the idea that I'm going to be a published author one day. I don't feel any particular ownership of my stories and I fail to understand how anyone in this day and age can feel like they have control of anything once they put it up on the world wide web.
One of the things I love most about fandom is the interactivity, the connectivity. If I didn't want that, I wouldn't be in fandom.
Um, yeah. I'll quit talking now. (I've skirted around the edges of fandom since 2003 when I got my LJ account, but didn't become a member of fandom until almost two years ago).
