NPR - Talk of the Nation - Fanfic discussed

[Gibraltar]

I caught part of NPR's radio series Talk of the Nation today, and the subject was fan fiction. It was an interesting discussion.

And here's the interviewee's Time article on fan fiction: http://www.time.com/time/arts/article/0,8599,2081784,00.html

Thanks for sharing that, Sir. I will definitely give a listen.

Any chance you're mentioned by name?

They even mention Kirk and Spock.

Very, very interesting article.

However, I am left with the gnawing and not altogether welcome urge to search me out some MUNCLE slash.

A thousand curses upon you! MUNCLE slash sounds like something that would get you arrested in Utah.

Or not. In Utah, I'm sayin'.

And I need some brain soap to get the image of Napolean Solo and Illia Kuryakin in a passionate embrace out of my mind. I keep seeing them replacing Kirk and Spock in that bathtub picture that's all over the web.
