Forum:FC:Café Fanfic XV



We had a decent turnout on July, but a bit under the mark, so let's heat things up with a more polarizing topic, suggested in part by Brandon Rhea. Since the Americans are busy yelling at each other, spamming the internet with ads, and posting tacky signs everywhere in a hallowed ritual that occurs every four years, might as well join in and toss in a wink and a nod to the dear old political arena.

Give that this is a more hot-button issue, I'm going to be moderating this thread pretty closely. If it gets out of hand or strays too far off topic (as determined by me), I'll request it be closed faster than a Chick-Fil-A in Boston!

Just like the previous ones, we're going to talk about fan-fiction (yours). The basic ground rules are the same. Please restrict this to stuff from your fan-fiction, but aside from that, no pressure. You can suggest, make observations, but no condemning other people's work or opinions and "I don't know" is a perfectly acceptable answer.

August's topic: Do you allow political issues to infiltrate or influence your writing? If so, what? Are they central portions of the plot or subtle nods and digs to your country's hot-button issues?

August's topic was suggested by Brandon Rhea. If you have something you feel would be of interest for the café to discuss, post it in the discussion section below. Atarumaster88  ( Talk page ) 21:55, August 1, 2012 (UTC)
