I hate quotation. Tell me what you know.

Unlike many in the fan community, I have an uneasy relationship with fan fiction. I indulged in it a few times during college. I’ve had half a mind to write a fan screenplay of Dune, or Neon Genesis Evangelion, or Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind. I even developed an idea for a sequel novel to the Avatar: the Last Airbender, but with the upcoming Legend of Korra covering similar grounds, I haven’t pursued it.
And I will never write any of the above.
Why?
