Jim's stand on fic?
Automagic:
Hullo!
First time poster, longtime reader (of the books). I haven't found this anywhere, but I was wondering what Jim's stance on fanfic was. Specifically, fanfic in general and fanfic about his own properties.
I'm not a fanfic writer myself, but know some authors (coughRicecough) have a take-no-prisoners view of it while others (she of the vs. Vander Ark) believe the more the merrier.
I didn't know which forum this would go in, so if it's wrong I apologize.

Jim himself appears to be the kind of guy who doesn't mind fanfic... However, his contract puts the kibosh on fanfic based on his stuff (yeah, I personally think he needs a new contract and new lawyers).

So essentially...Jim's stance is "Don't ask, don't tell"?
If he doesn't know about it, he doesn't have to tell anybody?
Likewise, no matter how much he likes it, he can't give it his seal of approval?

Basically, yeah. I really don't want to say more, in case said lawyers get suspicious... :: Glares in their general direction, wonders if they sold their inner children on eBay::

Not their inner children as much as the souls of their firstborns...their heart and soul, they sold to Lea
