an artist i follow got an ask about whether it was alright to use their art as covers for fanfic bookbinding and i'm. sorry i must have missed this discourse but since when are people outright printing out other people's work and binding them into books? do you contact and get author's permission (sure as fuck hope so)? and how do we writers feel about that, because i certainly feel very uncomfortable with that idea. i mean not to spoil the artistic expression of bookbinding because it's beautiful work that i most certainly could not do, but. you can access them stories any time you want on the websites where they were originally posted. why print them? again i mean i get the pleasure of holding & reading physical books, i much prefer that too, but like. get some books i guess? sorry i come from a place of honesty and tbh surprise and confusion about this whole thing. someone tell me how we're feeling about this. someone explain to me why it's being done. i just wanna understand
Photo ID: Digital illustration of Kyana and Dani from Rolling With Difficulty. They both have elements from their S3 & S4 official artwork in their designs (Kyana has the S4 clothing & hair but also has the purple hairband & S3 lack of gloves under the gauntlets, Dani has the S3 clothing but S4 hair & hat). They are gently holding each other, eyes closed, and Kyana is smiling while Dani gives her a kiss on the forehead. End ID
