68 Wives, LoM fandom, Marcuse
Oct. 20th, 2007 02:57 pmJust a note to tell you guys thanks for all the suggestions and advice on the sentence from 68 Wives. You're great! I'll reply when I have the time to actually think about the replies; I'm a bit pressed for time at the moment as I'm finishing a paper about Herbert Marcuse (and writing another one about Ambrose Bierce).
I took a quick look at the LoM communities yesterday night, and was struck again by two things:
1.) LoM is a *great* fandom for making me write, because a) it has all the elements necessary to construct fics that fit my personal kinks from it, yet b) 99.99% of the fic produced in the fandom is completely outside my 'specifications'. So, I have no choice but to write all the fics I want to read myself... a great motivation!
2.) LoM is a *horrible* fandom for me to write, because I have *absolutely* no handle on most of the characters and their interactions, esp. Gene, but also, woefully, though to a lesser degree, Sam. Arrgh.
Anyway... back to my uni work now.
