Fanfic is still okay! :D
After many many many ages I have finally finished working on the updates to my post from last year about published fanfic.
Needless to say it's now TOTALLY tl;dr, but my hope is that it will continue to be useful wherever discussions of fanfiction come up.
Of course, last Friday Time published Lev Grossman's amazing and insightful article about fanfiction, and I'm pretty sure this heralds the turning of the tide with regard to popular opinion about fandom as a cultural entity. But, hey, the list is there, and I'm happy it's been helpful to people this past year. :)
