Many thanks for the link, and the link within it -- I especially liked this comment
Personally, I'm convinced that the legends of the Holy Grail are fanfic about the Eucharist.
I also liked the comment about none of us using our own dirt/making the world whole and fresh.
But I was also interested in the comment from a writer who feels that it's not really possible for her to write someone else's characters, since they aren't swimming around in their own backstory in her head. Not sure if I agree 100%, but think it's an interesting point of view.
Haven't yet read March, but probably will since friend is very involved in Alcott stuff -- will let you know if I hear anything
