Excerpts
[How did you get started writing fanfic?]: I joined the P/T Collective on AOL, and discovered fanfic there and on the Internet, and was hooked. This was in February of 1997. Shortly thereafter I began to write it myself.
[What is your favorite fanfic?]: *Very* hard question, because there are many great stories and authors out there, but if I had to name one author and story, it would be Janet Toner (Jamelia) and her AU series "Warmth." The series has everything, in-depth and accurate characterization, humor, occasional pathos, and above all, warmth. Janet's affection for the characters always shines through in her stories.
[Do you have any advice to other fanfic writers?]: Write what you feel passionate about. And if you get enjoyment out of the process and pride from the result, that self-satisfaction is what really matters most.
