Clearly, the FanLib kerfuffle is the work of the devil, because I'm spending so much time following links that I haven't written anything for 'The Children of Cascade'. But FanLib is such a fascinating, if also disquieting, trainwreck; I cannot look away.

And if you don't know what the heck I'm talking about (live under a stone, do you?) life_wo_fanlibRead more... )

Oh yes, kerfuffles are as regular as one's monthly visitor (even if you don't have one, there's always somebody else who does *g*), and about as much fun, but this - this is a very 'speshul' kerfuffle indeed.

This one? Made it as far as Making Light,the Nielsen Haydens' blog. My favorite quote is this one: “Synergy is all well and good until someone stumbles upon that Shrek/Gandalf/Harry Potter threesome BDSM fic and has an aneurysm.”

There are *lots* of links in the post...

LOL - that was my favourite quote as well! Someone should metaquote it...

Yep, that's up there with some of the comments on the whole horse-wife wank, and one of those things that made me wish I could be a little more open about knowing why, exactly, I find it so funny...

And also, hi. :-)

And yet more from Making Light: the site's marketing brochure, linkeed here.

Surely nobody's surprised?

Well, not at the intention, although it's always nice to have some idea of the mechanics.
