Do you love it, hate it, or have no opinion?

What do you think of fanfiction? I myself have only read fanfics for South Park, but some are still good! Though sometimes I'll find one so bad (Cough, *this one*, cough) that I fear the Mayans are wright, and the world is coming to an end!

But what is your opinion on it? :classic:

I personally don't mind them, just so long as they don't stray too far from canon. I have personally written some for Star Wars and Halo, but they are just events that could have happened, nothing altering a story line.

I think (good) fanfiction is great. I think it's good that people don't only absorb a franchise, but also have it stimulate their imagination! Of course, there are many people with little imagination out there, but sometimes fanfiction can produce some great stuff. :thumbup:

Um...

Somewhere in the back of the interwebs in a possibly dead website is some fanfiction I wrote... (Also on my harddrive, but it ain't getting an airing). :blush:

When I finished my GCSEs I had a lot of free time and nothing to do in it, being far from MsPopular (really far) I didn't have anyone to do anything with. So with my lego stuck in boxes in the loft ( :cry_sad: before there was space) I took to reading and writing fanfiction and text-roleplaying on Neopets...

I was part way through a poorly written "series" and had at least six short stories and twice the number of drabbles and poems (drabble=100 word fanfic) my short stories went down quite well on said forum, noticed by a very popular writer-of-fics who ran the forum and my drabbles/poems proclaimed cute and stuck true to the characters. I stopped when the website was attacked by scripter brats and taken down for a fix that never happened. That was around four years ago.

I have sinced focused on my own original fiction with my own characters, one of which has been published in a small magazine. I like to think reading and writing both good and bad fanfiction helped me work on my prose and character development.

Oh, and all the fanfiction/roleplaying was under a much older username I abandoned when I "outgrew" the person that I was at the time. :wink: .
