Thirty Days of Fanfic - Day One
Jun. 28th, 2011 11:01 amBecause I am such a slut for talking about my process, I HAD to do this meme (ganked from ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
arsenicjade who stole it from turps33.
I hope others on my flist will do this meme too (pokesrabidchild67, photoash, coffeethyme4me, aisle_one, daria234, hoosierbitch, sheafleur, afiawri and EVERYONE ELSE, damnit!).
1 – How did you first get into writing fanfic, and what was the first fandom you wrote for? What do you think it was about that fandom that pulled you in?
I got into writing fanfic from reading it.
I was laid up and in pain, bored and one of the blogs I follow, Jessica Freely’s Friskbiskit mentioned White Collar, and in particular, White Collar slash fic (she had reworked the Peter-Kate scene at the end of Hard Sell). I followed her link to![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
whitecollarfic and began devouring everything I could find.
A lot I liked, some left me scratching my head, and some make me throw up my hands in frustration. My first fic, How Long Did You Think You Could Keep This Up (Before I Found Out)? was an attempt to address the legal problems I saw with the constant threats (direct and implied) to toss Neal back in jail.
Of course, what drew me in was the slash. Pure and simple, and it was no surprise that White Collar slash fic was mentioned on Friskbiskit, because Jessica Freely writes lovely m/m original fic.
