Fans Who Write

One has so far stayed away from what's called fan fiction, preferring to read those who create characters and settings for themselves. And though some published authors wouldn't like to acknowledge their fan fiction writing past, this report has it that "even as the publishing world addresses the genre's legal issues, some of its executives say they are open-minded about discovering talent on popular fan fiction websites such as livejournal.com, fanfiction.net, or fictionalley.org." Gird your loins for many, many more episodes of Star Trek or even Dr Who.
