I’ve always advised writers to have Blanket Permissions on their fic (to say yes, no, or maybe to Transformative Works based off one’s fanfic), but I upon reflection, I must advise writers to be more specific in their BP profile order to save the stragglers of us Transformative Artists time and aggro.
I do understand if the writer finds the efforts of said artists disappointing. Or to the point of chagrin; their efforts better than one’s own- this has happened to me- but either way, can you please be mindful that time and effort have gone into the work based on your work, no matter how humble the effort.
If upon reflection, you the writer only wish for the best person in x Transformative Field to attempt your work, please be very specific in your BP. Or just do what other writers do, and use the ‘Yes, if asking’ option to filter out whom you don’t want or who you do (like some BNFs have done). It’s exclusionary, and entitled, to be sure, but it’s what you wish, and people like me will know whom to avoid in the future.
Thank you!
