Date: 2006-12-05 11:34 pm (UTC)I don't know if it's the same person, but some years ago at ICon (the one where David Drake and Joe Haldeman were co-GoHs) Mickey Reichert admitted during a writing panel that she occasionally wrote fanfic for her own amusement and as a way of keeping flexible.
There's some very, very good fanfic out there - John Biles' Sailor Moon stuff, for example, which got me interested in the whole franchise to the point where I now have two uncut, subbed box sets - but Sturgeon's Law is an understatement. Way more than 90% of fanfic is crap, and I don't except my own dubious works by any stretch of the imagination.
