Have to say this first. My opinions, my views, the way I see things. No one else's. I don't own any of these works. Just trying to do research on something that is interesting to me because I write and I read fanfiction. So again, no one's trying to put anyone down in here. If I do it's accidently. I just wanted to let people see other's opinions on fanfiction. Nothing else, it's mainly for me, to help me out and others if they so want. Thank you.
Went browsing last nite and saw

If you just put in fanfiction illegal and tons of sites come up. Heck just put in fanfiction or fandom and see what a person gets.

I think it was on slash and how he hated that the show was being used this way. I believe though that the comments pointed out that while he had been a writer, the actors who played the characters didn't seem to mind either way. Damn! Now I got to look it up...Guess it was someone else, Sorry Mr. Goldberg! I only found one reference to slash fanfic and it's below. So again I apologize for offending anyone if I did.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fanzines http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fan_fiction http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kirk/Spock http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slash_fiction Yes, I got Wikipedia in here but that doesn't mean I follow the site and believe it 100%. It's made up of people writing opinions and facts based on everything, doesn't mean it's always correct.
I think I'm done for now. If any of you have anything to add, please tell me. I really appreciate it and hope I haven't offended anyone with my views. That's just it, they're my opinions, my views, no one else's so please don't think I stole or hate anything that doesn't have to do with the way I think. I don't. Thank you again.
