Bio

“Fanfiction is what literature might look like if it were reinvented from scratch after a nuclear apocalypse by a band of brilliant pop-culture junkies trapped in a sealed bunker. They don't do it for money. That's not what it's about. The writers write it and put it up online just for the satisfaction. They're fans, but they're not silent, couchbound consumers of media. The culture talks to them, and they talk back to the culture in its own language.”
― Lev Grossman

"To make a good fanfiction, one must take the old idea and attack it from a new angle. Whether it's an alternate universe, an unheard of pairing, or an explanation of the past, check all the facts and make it believable, then the readers will hang on to every word."
