This is the opinion of someone who clearly has never read any quality fanfiction. I haven't read much, but those I have read, were really good.

Idk the hate about fanfic, theyre artist in their own right and alot of them enjoy the characters they write and I think its a good way to get an understanding of world building, and character development

this had me in stitches

like a few things:
1. most hobbies and outlets women enjoy are often times belittled, ridiculed and seen as "lesser". 
2. i agree w her abt fanfic not being literature, rather it's fun. it's just dropping some imaginary scenarios onto paper. like i dont read or write fanfic to get something out of it, rather to just see my fav characters do shit. 
3. corporate ip? is her message "ip literature is killing amazon workers ree" or what? i've a hard time seeing her correlation w this.
4. her own writing is shit - she might need the training kek
5. "ppl writing fanfic for fun and no profit are lining the pockets of big corp by lending their creative energy" i'm sorry but it's just bad takes on bad takes.

lol yeah. her tweet thread is messy af, but it's a combination of bad takes and legitimate takes i think. 

i wish people were actually debating this in the comments instead of taking it really personally and projecting everywhere... but it's twitter so what do u expect rly

yep yep
i think she had some mixed intentions because i get 3 strands here:
1. big corp bad (legit)
2. fanfiction isn't literature of same caliber as oc work (legit)
3. everything not oc is corp aligned + ip is responsible for creative "energy" dying (ice cold) 

twitter threads are not the place for actual discussion, whenever a meager character limit is placed, how can you really express your opinion and have a nuanced and engaging discussion about topics?

"Calling Dante's Inferno fanfic is like calling Fancy Feast's liver foie gras. A ludicrous comparison." 

"Oh... So the argument is "Its good and recognizable, therefore not fanfic, even if it literally fits the definition of a crossoever AU RPF/Bible fanfic"... No wonder you think all fanfics are bad...It's literally impossible to argue with you about this..."

Idk, fanfiction is pretty muchthe only books I read n some of them r very well written

teaches you to write worse?
lmao
there are different genres of ff and even if they mean slash, there is tons of well written slash out there
I think many ff is so bad because it was written by young/inexperienced authors, not because you have to write bad.

she's probably mad that teenagers/ppl without a degree get more recognition writing fanfiction than her writing does, even if she studied linguistics at yale.

also she literally wrote fanfiction wtf
