Writers and fans and heroes and friends
Posted on July 23rd, 2008 by Jackie Danicki
The writer-fan distinction should not collapse into some false and, god forbid, forced equalisation. It should collapse into us being fans as well as having fans. That is the strength of the network.
This reminded me of what Alice had to say about fans and friends. I love her closing remark:
Never assume someone else thinks they are or should be your friend, fan or hero: decide what you are, or want to be, and be open about it. Fear of rejection never got anyone anywhere.
