Discussion: Canon. When you write fic do you stick to the canon or do you explore it?

Comments

[linaewen]

I'm mostly having a break. Some thinking I did for a fic turned out to be useless, as my idea will not work, so I have to rethink things.

I am very much a stick-to-canon person, so much of what I write are gapfillers. One of my main WIPs is an AU, however, which due to its AU-ness, is not exactly canon; however, even when I do change canon (like having characters be alive when they die in canon) everything else I write is canon-based -- the goal being to see how canon is affected when certain characters are inserted back into the timeline.
