Fan Fiction, Write It? Read It? Iffy?

Yes, I know the ethics of fanfic are hotly debated. But I write it (for HP, Torchwood, and I kinda do for Doctor Who) and I love it. Any other fanficcers out there? Where do you post? What do you think about the artistic validity of fanfic?

As for reading, it depends on the author, though I think I'm actually really picky. The only fanfics I've really enjoyed are by Chickadee and Cassandra's Cross. I don't have a link to the former, but here's the latter's fanfiction.net url: Cassandra's HP fanfics


I agree, Cassandra's Cross does write some really good fan fics. I also read one of Chickadee's stories and thought it was really nice. smile.gif
I read fanfiction a lot, mainly when I'm bored and have nothing else to do. I used to write some, but I only posted one story because I usually don't like what I write. I haven't written any fanfics in about three years now, preferring to read other people's. smile.gif
