I've got a kick out of reading all the beta'd revisions, and then this morning I re-read the orginal, and thought ...
it's perfect! A great satire - badfic supreme, and concisely done too!
No need to be changing it at all.
- It was interesting reading the rewrites and what really amounted to rewrites. So I wondered if someone might produce another very short 'badfic', and then various writers might 'rewrite' it, but anonymously. Then see if we could guess the author?
- Also. We all probably know, deep down, that some stuff we've written is mega- badfic. It might be interesting if writers select just a short bit from a fic they've posted - say a paragraph or a few lines of dialogue that they think is "badfic" - and see how others might beta or rewrite it.
Not sure if this might belong in the challenge section?
