I asked this question in Fandom Wank, but I want to ask it here.
There have been posts about Fanlib TPTB taking fanfic posted their and using it to produce episodes (Fanisodes). and all the fic author gets is...the specialness of having helped make an episode.
No one ever said anything about keeping the fics within their fandom.
What will the fan do if they wrote a fic for House wherein House has to give his dying yet abusive father a heart transplant?
Then, next week on Grey's Anatomy, McDreamy has to give his dying yet abusive father a heart transplant?
THEN what? Recognition? Or theft?
