- tielan: racism: not my problem - If racism isn't the problem of the people who aren't racist - if it's the province of the people who are racist, then we're putting a lot of faith in humanity's ability to self-criticise. -
- alixtii: Classism and Working-Class Characters in Fandom - if we agree with kattahj that CoC's are more likely to get written if they aren't coded as working class[...]then it'd be interesting to see if we tend not to write working-class white characters in the same way. -
- giddygeek: as an aside, i took the photo this icon is from, then that wall got torn down. poor peaceful robot. - Here's the thing: I love comments. I do. I am deeply pleased when people let me know they liked something[...]When it comes time to follow through on that, though, I tend to fail. I'm one of those people who has never been good about replying. -
- pfeffermuse: Fandom: Feniquette - I thought a post about fannish etiquette actually is important, since there really isn't any one place where new fen can go to learn proper fannish deportment. -
- illumine: Agent Blog - The idea of fanfic writing actually helping a writer achieve publication rather blew my mind. -
- jimhines: Fanfiction and the Nebula Awards - So there's been a bit of discussion about the fact that World Enough and Time made the final Nebula ballot. For those who don't know, WEaT is a Star Trek episode which was put together by fans instead of Paramount. I.e., fanfiction. -
