Wondering

[deelaundry]

Housefic writers on my f-list (or any who happen to stop by), I'm curious. [Special call to purrlia: want your opinion here, too!]

We all know Jimmy Wilson is the Cy Young of medicine. Compared to an author in the broader literary world, who are you in the Housefic fandom, and why?

Example: XX (particular fanfic writer not on my f-list) is the Jeffrey Archer of Housefic - popular, but not meaningful. As one columnist said about Archer's work, it "has always struck me as being above average of its kind. Its kind being airport books. You buy one in New York, read bits of it with some amusement and interest on the plane, and then chuck it in the bin at Heathrow."

For bonus points, because I'm hugely self-centered, to whom would you compare me?

This post is open to everyone, so feel free to email if you're feeling shy.

I honestly could not answer you for either of your questions. I mean, Arureos' bit at the end reminded me of the Redwall stories; but it's a poor comparison.

But I'll ask you this, why would you want to be compared to someone else? Your stories are unique to you, and that's what makes them so fun to read.

Or maybe that question is simply my defense mechanism because I have no idea how to answer your question.
