This Canon Question

Which seems to have loomed again on anon threads.

For what it's worth, I've always liked this old essay, which describes TF as a 'mythology' rather than 'canon.' Maybe its why I've never gotten hung up on the canon issue.

I'm interested in peoples' views (but please no wank - its just an idea I can see some merit in!)

IKR. Some people seem to forget that it IS a hobby and this IS supposed to be fun. And if you don't LIKE the way someone is writing something hey....giant back button at the top of the browser. It just makes me facepalm so much. =X

That is so true :-) And if you do keep reading, own the opinions and feelings and deal with them - don't publicly castigate the writer!

It can be harder I guess when things aren't warned for. But hey - I'll save that can of worms for another day!

I suggest that if the focus for a reader can stay on what they do like rather than what they don't, then that's a whole lot more positive - and fun XD
