Line 14:
{{quote|''This one's something of a response to the recent finale of [[RWBY]] Volume 3. No spoilers, but suffice to say it gets dark. Seriously dark. And you know what? That's fine. But that doesn't mean I can't write something invalidating a lot of that darkness, because I'm a fanfic writer. That's what I do.''|CV12Hornet|[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11516173/2/Plot-Bunny-Overflow-Containment-Unit Plot Bunny Overflow Containment Unit, Chapter 2]}}
{{quote|It seems to me that if something is being done on an amateur basis by a fan for fans, and is clearly their own work, and is done out of a shared regard for the basic subject matter, then it would be kind of chilly for an author to run around hammering people. It's fandom, for god's sake. I don't give anyone ''permission'', I just smile and think what the hell.
There's a danger, of course, that some dumb bugger out there will interpret this as an indication that Discworld is now in the public domain or open to franchising. It is neither. If anyone tries a commercial rip-off -- not a parody, not fanac, but a cynical attempt to cash in on my Discworld -- then the sewage farm will hit the three megawatt aerogenerator.|[[Terry Pratchett]]}}
{{quote|''I'd rather fanfic went on somewhere where I don't see it. Why? Because if A Fan writes a piece about, say, [[Discworld]] tax collectors, and I chose to write about Discworld tax collectors a year later, A Fan will send me the 'nyer, ripoff, you nicked my idea' email.''|[[Terry Pratchett]]}}
