Oh yes, fan fiction! Me, myself, and I have a large history with fan fiction.

I write LOTR fiction, and LOTR fiction only, and that is the only thing I'll read, unless if I am looking for a Harry Potter fic to tear apart. See, I'm a member of the Livejournal community Deleterius, a place where Mary Sues and generally Bad fan ficiton is torn apart. The people there tend to be much meaner than I ;P But it's a great group for picky nitpickers like me who *love* our canon HP and LOTR characters and hate seeing them ruined in fan fiction.

I'm not famous in the LOTR fandom world, but neither am I unknown. Since I use the same username everywhere, I *have* been recognized on LJ and DeviantArt because of my fan fiction on fanfiction.net. It is flattering to be recognized XD I just submitted something to 'Stories of Arda', so I'm going to see if I get accepted there.

I write all types of genres: general, drabbles/one shots, book!canon, movie!canon, crossovers, parody, action, angst, everything. The only thing I don't write are slash and Mary Sues. Actually, I generally stay away from romance as I have yet to experience something so passionate, and thus don't consider myself completely qualified to write it (even if I have studied it XD).

I'm also a very picky editor/beta. When I review a story, I tend to be nitpicky and I WILL tear it apart (in a nice way) to encourage someone to be a better writer. Some appreciate it, some don't. One girl went absolutely nuts when I critizied her. I promptly delivered smackdown, and she left the Internet. I'm generally a nice person, and people generally like me, but I do *not* tolerate BS.

Anyways, if you are into LOTR, please check out my stuff: www.fanfiction.net/~ainulaire. Reviews are truly appreciated

And I'm not into Real Life people fics, either. I've met too many famous people to like them, and as most of them suck anyways... yea, I generally stay away from them. I doubt I'll ever write a real person fic, because I don't *know* them and their personalities. For book/movie characters, we can delve into their minds. For real people, we really cannot. So no, I stay away from it. I completely respect people who do write it (as well as slash writers, which is something I also stay away from), but I just don't read/write it myself, and doubt I will, unless if it was a private parody. Never public, though.

And I have yet again managed to babble my head off. Go me.
