So I'm reading an interview with Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett regarding the tenth anniversary of Good Omens, because I love almost all of what they both write (though I've had Anansi Boys sitting on my bedside table for a month. I feel terrible). I've never written Good Omens fanfic, but I did start a fic in which Lord Vetinari gets yanked, kicking and screaming (in that very quiet, ominous way of his) into love. Unfortunately, romantic comedy is hard, so I gave up.
But anyway, in this interview, Neil Gaiman says the following, which I love as an example of an author who knows about slash and fanfic and is amused by it, if anything, not threatened.
( slashy stuff under the cut )
I think I should go dig up Good Omens and read it again. it's been forever since I read it, but I do highly recommend it - it's literate and funny as hell.
