I thought het had some pretty big followings, weirdly. R/Hr shippers and the like. Hr/Sn and so on.

I know so did I! Maybe het fandom died fast after the last book came out? All they wanted to know was who ended up with whom, after all.

Commissions (or lack thereof) seem to be a fandom-to-fandom issue.

I mean, furry fandom has always had commissions.

So that may've bled into Twilight stuff, and is fairly reasonably the norm. I dunno.

Mostly, my problem is that a) he's clearly targeting a particularly vulnerable population, there, and, far less importantly, b) it SUCKS. Wow, does it suck.

Is the new screenname meant to be funny? As in, Truth is Stranger "thanfiction"?

[ivyblossom.livejournal.com]

That's what it is, but I don't know if that's meant to be funny. :/

I'm still pretty active, and I've never heard of this person. But I've found that there is an enormous divide between ff.net fans and LJ fans. The comments that I receive from people on ff.net are not people I've EVER heard of.

"Thousands of dollars have been funneled in his direction over the years, either out of pity for his varying health issues, his "conventions", commissions for bad photomanip art, etc."

Hmmm, sounds familiar.

Wank all the same... I'll have a look see. Thanks for sharing the link!

Seriously, THAT IS THE BEST IDEA EVAR!

No need to screen cap threads and the like, just pure testimonials... though, I suspect the landscape has changed somewhat with twitter and FB being the more popular vehicles for people networking/scamming and the like.

Oh, my. I was a member of Bit of Earth way back when so I remember the fallout, although I didn't personally get burned in any way. But wow, this person is back AGAIN? Keeps showing up like a very bad penny.
