People like to look down on fan fiction as a form of literature, but I need you to know that one of the most profound sentences I have read in fiction in the last ten years that has truly stuck with me was "Guilt was like having your clothes wet. It was an even weight over all of you, and it was sloppy and dragged along with you wherever you went, clinging to your skin, never letting you forget it was there. That damp oppressiveness." and I think that shows quite perfectly that art is not bound by its consumers or distributors. So if you can look me in the eyes and tell me that writing is less worthy of perception when it can be found on a fan fiction platform rather than a bookstore then our opinions of art differ greatly.
