alizarin_nyc linked to this article from the Onion on the price of being a fan. The premise for this satire is very simple, and yet hilariously clever. I just loved reading it so much.

faithwood has an excellent post about feedback and comments in fandom. This has been linked around, but it's something I feel like lots of people should think about. It probably can't be said enough.

snickfic has an interesting post about world-building in Buffyverse (and in general) and some cool discussion in the comments, too. I tend not to care too much about world-building, but sometimes bad world-building definitely gets in the way of a good story. Plus, I'm tired of certain world-building (or the lack thereof) in certain kinds of sci fi. I have a post about that! Eventually.

sarahtales revealed the UK cover of her final book in The Demon's Lexicon trilogy. I'm not a huge fan of lots of cover art. Also I'm not a huge fan of real-looking people on covers. But I like this one, because it's of Sin, and I love Sin, and she's a character of color, and no one tried to make her look like she wasn't.
