Would you read fic about you?

Poll INQUIRING MINDS and all that

Also, I'd like to note that by "RPF" I'm talking about Real Person Fiction. You/Me is not the same. RPF is writing something like...I don't know. Albert Einstein/Paul Newman, okay?

Feel free to expand on your answers! :D

poll, random, real internet life

They just kept getting biiigggerrrr.

1. YES, because not only would I know what people are thinking about said canon (in a broad sense; see my answer of NO to 4) but also could see what people are hypothesizing and mock them viciously inside my head.

2. NO, because if someone understood my character better than even I thought I did, I would not only change how I was acting, but also end up stalking the person and spoiling them for their input and...yeah. It'd be bad.

3. YES, until it got creepy. Because looollll that would toootally not be an accurate portrayal of me. And I'm sure there'd be hilarious sex dialogue, so how can you pass that up?!

4. NO. UNFAIR ADVANTAGE, helloooooo. Plus I would never be able to write a disclaimer ever. "DISCLAIMER: Yyyyeah, this is actually the creator/actor/etc of this canon. I really hope my agent doesn't catch me doing this, LOL!" *snerk*

1. I think I would... but that's me.
2. Just for the Hell of it, Yep..
3. I might give the summaries a glance... but, all else, I'd probably read one for the LOL. Then again, I don't take RPF all that seriously. *hides old BSB and 'N Sync fics*
4. I would. And I'd be the pain in the ass who's always knocking myself. Lurking until some big discussion was full-swing and then popping in with an "I don't think so, Tim"...

Albert Einstein divorced a woman who'd stuck by him through poverty and stupidity and his bad habit of not doing anything useful but staring at stuff. When he got famous for his Golden Year or whatever they're calling it now, he dumped her and married his cousin.

Paul Newman, on the other hand, was a very attractive and admirably moral man!

OTP Y/N?

I can tell you that as someone who wants to be a director? I would be reading the fic from my film, definitely, unless I just got to the point where I HAD to comment...because I don't think commenting is cool, from canon. You get into legal woe.

I know authors who are down with fanfic for their books and read it, periodically.
