BronxWench got a reaction from Melrick in And now I’ve had my colonoscopy without anesthetic. The procedure itself wasn’t a pro
Dear gods, man! You’d best keep us posted as to the results, although I imagine it’s going to make one hell of a photo album.

I was the daft bugger’s responsible adult. The prelude was gruesome, and I was desperately grateful that he was anesthetized for the procedure, because I think it would have been a race between me and his doctor as to who murdered him first otherwise.

@Desiderius Price Exactly, whereas the late Anne Rice had a firm of lawyers who hunted down anyone who dared write fan fiction using her property. She wasn’t above personal harassment, either. Her estate has not changed that stance, either, so anyone thinking that her passing means her work is fair game might think again.
And then there’s public domain, which is probably the least understood concept among fiction archives.

We don’t allow Patreon here, exactly because there’s no way for us to be sure that members are only receiving donations for original work.
It is a clear and distinct violation of copyright law for anyone to profit from copyrighted material without written permission from the copyright owner. So, a toy company can make a Harry Potter game, as long as they receive permission from JK Rowling, but if someone sells Harry Potter merchandise without having obtained that permission, the lawyers will swoop in, and generally the person violating copyright law gets to pay their lawyer and the copyright owner’s lawyer, substantial fines, and possibly could receive a jail sentence based on how much they earned.
The same thing applies to fan fiction. If someone sets up a Patreon on a fiction archive, and publishes both fan fiction and original work on the archive, there’s no way to tell what the patrons are donating for. The patrons might think they’re doing the author a huge favor by donating, so the author can work on that fan fiction they love so much, and if they mention in a review that they donated for that reason, well. I would not want to be in that author’s shoes when the copyright owner finds out.

I’m ridiculously conservative when it comes to the fair use provisions of copyright law myself. I do write fan fiction for somewhat obscure fandoms, but one fandom is the property of Wizards of the Coast, and they are relentless in protecting their copyright.
As far as original fiction goes, I either submit to a publisher, or put it up here for free. It’s just simpler that way.

@Deadman I’m hoping that this new site you found isn’t allowing payment for fan fiction, but only for original content. Payment for fan fiction crosses all sorts of legal thresholds, and I wouldn’t recommend anyone stick a toe into those waters. There’s a very good reason lawyers are compared to sharks...

Um… (coughs) I think it’s got Manta…
@manta2g Don’t take this wrong, but have you been possessed by a pussy?
I can definitely see it at the top of the screen. Does anyone know how to get it to come?
Does anyone on these adultfanfiction forums know what kind of treats will tempt a pussy?
😎

Yeah, it’s for the rather catchily named AFF IVPB4 (Default) theme, and the pussy appears up the top with the AFF Community Forums logo. I don’t know if it’s anywhere else.

It depends, I think, on the theme you use for the forum, but we do have a kitty!

BronxWench got a reaction from WillowDarkling in Six months to Christmas! (that’s all folks.)
Thank all the gods we don’t have to deal with Yule decorations in stores, although it might be nice not to see Christmas decorations until after Yule…
