A general sense of awed-ness.

[conuly]

New as I am to the world of fanfic, I've never said this before. I know some people who write fanfic who are so talented, I'm amazed. No, really! I won't name names, out of fear of carelessly insulting somebody by neglecting to name them, but some of you are... well, that's why I don't write. Can't ever find a word when I want one.

I do have a question, to bring this off the awkward topic. Is it a sign of my continuing depravity that I'm starting to see relationships like Harry/Draco as more normal and understandable and reasonable than the statistically more likely (and more supported) relationships such as Hermione/Ron?

Yes. Yes it is.

But I'm only saying that because I have an irrational hatred of Harry/Draco

Also, you should read some of amberdulen's fic. She's amazing. And very modest. She gets embarassed when I rave. ;)

Naaaah. I do that all the time.

Yes, there are some very talented fanfiction authors. Unfortunately, that talent is completely wasted, seeing that they're spending their creative energies writing derivative work that warps someone else's brainchild unrecognizably and will never be publishable. Pity.

You say "continuing depravity" like it's a bad thing... :P

And no, it's just a sign that fanon has EATEN YOUR BRAIN. :)

Well, if you start shipping Blaise/anyone, then fanon truly has eaten your brain. :P

It's probably just the fact that your mind has less trouble overlooking the blatantly obvious than it does the relatively unobvious/obscure.
