People think it's fun to write fanfic because you get all those readers. But they forget the negative side, which is the psychosis.
It's funny because it's true. And then:
I don't think I'm alone when I say I'd like to see more and more planets fall under the ruthless domination of Prospect-L.
Prospect-L! I miss Prospect-L. That was so much fun. I was too scared to ever actually post, but I read all the messages religiously. I learned a lot on that list. Mainly things like 'don't piss off the moderator', but occasionally actual information would sneak through, too. We need another Prospect-L. I suppose fandom_wank is similar, but it's not the same.
And also check out: Life Cycle of the Bitter Old Fanfic Queen.
