This has been fascinating, and I am sure it is very instructive for other unions who are negotiating. It should be instructive for the Liberals and the companies, but I'm not betting on that.

Master & Commander, though I think it's a bit more that she wrote in that world and then added dragons to the world and then wrote books in that new world, as opposed to literally publishing one of her fanfics. I never actually finished the series because it hit my hard no: amnesia plot.

Yeah I'm not sure why I decided to read any of the 3 big Dramione books and why I chose this one specifically but I'm definitely not picking up the others. (I'm not against reading fanfic w the serials filed off, I liked a lot of Temeraire and I am big on fairy tale retellings.)

Rose in Chains. Whatever you think about it, it's worse than that, on any imaginable axis. I will say that it's pretty undetectable as Dramione, as someone who read the books back in the day but hasn't read any fanfic about it, though knowing it I can identify the HP characters in it.

I had Marske on my TBR before her debut was released. I was unaware of this but I also read her fanfic before that. So I probably recommended it. I like best the trilogy starting A Marvellous Light, she has a straight romance called Sword Crossed that is fun and a Cinderella retelling this fall.

No, it was terrible. I know she says she did stem grad school but nothing about her description of it was accurate.

I think it was worse than that one Reylo (romance, no fantasy) book I read that I didn't know was a Reylo book but had good reviews and was also so terrible.

Yeah I don't read the genre except I guess some authors I already read? I think T Kingfisher stuff counts, but her work is actually good. Freya Marske, maybe? I was just curious because of all the ancillary drama about these books. It was SO BAD you have no idea.

I just read one of those Dramione books thinking "this is going to be terrible and I will hate it" and I was wrong in that it was more terrible and I hated it more than I had imagined. So I can't really judge.

Why would anyone do this? Oreos are perfect. Reese's cups are perfect. They can be perfect separately. There is no way these combinations will do anything but bring them both down for no reason.

But if he lost a third of his body weight he would just be a more concentrated perfection.

Yes but surely I am among the least important of them.

You could really add to the author here:
Catie Murphy writing as CE Murphy writing as . . .
Would it leave enough room for the other important things on a cover? Not so much. Would it get more people interested in your books? Doubtful.
But would it amuse an internet acquaintance?

You and half the other people who read it. The show was ok. The Incandescent is a bit more like Scholomance except the teachers don't want the students to die

You might like the recent one The Incandescent where the author clearly feels that way about much of the genre. Plus magic.

I remember all the teens PISSED that the first lines of Romeo + Juliet (1996 Luhrmann version) gave away the ending.
