The Caffeinated Neurotic

CNN wrote an article on fan fiction, it's not nearly as in-depth nor as well written as the "Times" article from some months before, and it focuses mainly on a Twilight fanfic writer who I guess is getting a movie made from her work? Good for her! That's kind of awesome (and I say this as someone who has no interest in "Twilight" whatsoever because the relationship dynamics in that series hit on every single one of my DO NOT WANT tropes, but I do think it's really cool that this fanfic writer 'broke on through to the other side', to coin a phrase ;)). But the article did give a shout-out to Star Trek and Kirk/Spock - beautiful, wonderful ship that it is (shipper bias? I know not of that which you speak. O:-) ).

Here be the link.

Coppa added, "The wonderful thing about fandom is that you realize you're not alone."

One more article from the RSS feed before I pass-out for the night (so sleepy). An interview with our beloved Captain Kirk, 1.0.

Here be the link.

Excerpt:

Shatner played Capt. James T. Kirk in the NBC television series and in seven films of the franchise.

"It was so successful and had such importance on this culture that continues to this day. I owe my celebrity to that."
