"Fan fiction 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."  -

The Boy Who Lived Forever | Time Magazine (via gypsy-sunday)

This is probably the best, non-judgmental description of fan fiction I’ve ever heard of in main stream media.

Fanfic Friday! 

hoshiko2:

Title: The Gentleman and the Hero
Author: Teenage Mouse (ff.net)
Pairings: USUK
Rating: T
Warnings: Some swear here and there
Status: WIP (13 chapters atm)
Summary: (From author) World Academy students have been paired up for an anonymous email exchange program, so they can talk to someone about school and personal problems in private. These are the emails of two students nicknamed ‘The Gentleman’ and ‘The Hero’. Gakuen AU, email.
Why I like it: It’s really original! I love the idea of it, first of all, and second, I think it’s super cute! They don’t know they’re talking to each other ABOUT each other! It’s just so cute the things they easily say when you know, normally, Alfred and Arthur would never say this to each other because they get so nervous. Well not here. And it really gets deeper into their mindset. I think it’s all around beautiful and awesome.

I just got into this one a few days ago, and it got an update today, and oh dear lord it’s fantastic. The newest chapter is so freakin cute.

So I read the most amazing fanfiction last night and I recommend it to my fellow USUK fans. 

belsiret:

Title: Act Natural
Genre: Romance/Comedy
Pairing(s): US/UK, implied GerIta & Spamano
Rating/Warnings: Overall NC-17 for an abundance of fantasized sex.
Summary: Arthur Kirkland, porn novelist extraordinaire, is suffering from writer’s block. His new muse shows up on his doorstep with an American accent, a mega-watt smile and a tool belt. [written for the kink meme]

Part 1-5: http://hetalia-kink.livejournal.com/17337.html?thread=52914361#t52914361
Part 6-7: http://hetalia-kink.livejournal.com/17465.html?thread=58272313#t58272313

READ IT. It is an AU, but it’s fucking amazing and the smut is awesome and the writing is perfection and Arthur’s mind is FUCKING INSANE AND BRILLIANT.

You’ll be laughing, I promise!

By the way, the author!anon also posted this on her livejournal, so that’s where I found all the links, so I’ll just throw that in as my source.

I am actually considering letting my parents read some of it. Only because it has little to no shipping in it.

Erw 

latnien:

Am I the only one who finds description of characters awkward as hell in fics?

I mean, I find it extremely unnecessary most of the time if the description does not serve a point… 

Like you know, when the fics starts in third and proceeds to automatically describe.

Like “blonde, tall, blue eyes, handsome, muscles” 

I’m like “I already know how the character looks, there is no use on informing me unless you’re telling me how they’re dressed…” 

Yes! Unless it’s something different from the norm like Punk!Arthur with piercings and green hair etc., it’s really not necessary.
