reposted from my blog because I need you, baby:
Okay, Zendom article time. I need a couple volunteers to answer: "Why I write AUs." Or "Why I Write Alternate Histories" or "Why I Write Futurefic." Really I just need one Farscape volunteer, and I'll send you interview questions. Also a West Winger and someone from another fandom entirely (like JAG) who believes her fandom tends to beg AUs/alternate histories/etc. And a boyband person who writes Regencies and AUs.
THEN I need someone in one of the Big Three (Trek, XF, Buffy) who's willing to be interviewed re: Why Their Fandom Doesn't Require AUs. Or alternately "Why I Write Post-Eps" or "Why I Write Casefiles."
So. Lemme know if you're interested and I'll send you the whatsits, this needs to happen sooner rather than later.
Additionally, imagine my surprise today, when, at the barest provokation of a subway ad, I discovered that I did, indeed, love Raymond!

Um... I write Trek AU's.
