Date: 2016-01-09 09:17 pm (UTC)The thing that amazes me is how many fans (esp newer, but I guess they always existed?) do feel strongly that the creators are the ideal audience or yearn for the creators to appreciate and praise their fan works. Which to me is all wrong and doesn't make sense for all the reasons you name.
And I wanna steal your title and write it in large letters everywhere. Because fandom IS for the fans, not a random bystander, curious outsider journalist or, even, the author of the original text.
