You Stole The Ideas I Was Going To Have!
Fanfic wank in "The Office" Fandom taken from a kind mousie on [info]wank_report

The creation of a fanfic series and the turning down of a not-cool kid who wanted to add a fic to it.

The Not Cool Kid posts her already-written fic anyway, without mention of a connection to the series. The Cool Kids are not amused.

The author, Neverenoughwank, er, jam, does a flounce and it's goodbye cruel internets!

Shocked, simply shocked, at this turn of events, Nomadshan has had enough of the BNF bullying and WANTS YOU TO FIGHT THE POWER.

Boom.

(BTW, I personally have no idea who the cool kids or the not cool kids are in this fandom; it just reads this way...)

ETA #1: Neverenoughjam gives 'her side'.

ETA #2 1/25/07 - A fabulous socktastic follow-up to this wank ...

Wow, a bunch of hissy fits over nothing. I mean--dude.

1. A girl basically writes fanfic of their fanfic. So? Some of the coolest established writers in the real world have no problem with this, why do they?

2. Jesus Christ, being told you were writing fan-fanfic is no reason to leave the intarwebs. Darling, soon enough we'll create a whole new species of subfen like you to add to the fandom hierarchy, don't worry.

3. The internet is really not a simulation of high school. No one is married to horses in high school.

I liked bliccy's comment. Apparently, if you have a LiveJournal, you're probably a douchebag. Good to know! From this point forward, I will embrace my douchebag-ness. I'm off to steal someone's fanart and claim it as my own, and then maybe I'll oppress some fanbrats with my opinions.

I always wonder what guys like Ricky Gervais and Greg Daniels think of fan fiction. If I were them, I'd be extremely proud of having launched such efforts as yours. How flattering it is for them that you've got the energy and drive and creativity to embark on something like this. I hope they someday appreciate how much work you guys are putting into a project involving their characters.

Does anyone else think he/she was being entirely sarcastic?

In all fairness, the original e-mail in annakovsky's post actually says " just finished a draft of a piece similar to you guys' work," and not "I took the liberty to write fic based off your work," which is what annakovsky (and everyone associated with her) keeps implying it says. Whether or not it's TRUE is another matter, but. It seriously does not SAY anywhere, "I wrote this because of you."

Unless I missed it?

I just wonder how much ego is involved if people read "our work is similar, let's work together, I want to be cool too!" and immediately see, "you (yes, YOU) inspire me greatly!"

Man - fan-fanfic is cool, even if it is a sort of, kind of, almost rip-off. Cause then someone actually put an effort into emulating you. It'd be frustrating but hey, there has to be SOME source of flattery in there somewhere.

Unfortunately, the comments to that post have turned into a huge honey_wheeler vs. fandom hotbed of wank, in which everything that's ever happened in this fandom has been dredged up, which I'm sorry about -- and it seems like in a lot of that "livejournal" is being treated as some kind of giant, borg-like entity that all acts as one all the time.

... but I can't be the only person alternately amused and scared by the mental image of Honey Wheeler in a wank war.

I'm just going to go back to living in my little world where The Office fanfiction does not exist.

The show is amazingly clever, and after seeing what passes for "clever" in most fanfiction circles, it can't possibly hope to live up to the original.
