Some Excerpts
[What attracted you to writing Fanfic and what about it do you enjoy?] I started because I wanted to explain, to myself, if to no-one else, why Clark was the way he was when he arrived in Metropolis. I think this need to explain "why" is still my motivation. I love making up the stories in my head. The putting them down on paper--now that's a whole other ball of wax.<g>
Round Robin? I think of round robins as more of a writing technique than a type of fanfic. I like some of the results from this technique, but not many.
I think what I like about writing fanfic is the creative process. I find revising tedious, and will do almost anything to avoid making the required revisions. However, I also realize that my first stab at the story is often not the best, so I know I *have* to revise. I want my story to be the best it can be when I release it to the unsuspecting fanfic reader.
