help? please?
Um.
I just got an email from somebody who read "One of Those Days" -- my little H/Hr 'we'll probably get together sometime soonish but we're not admitting it, oh no we're not' story -- and who wants to continue it.
I have no interest in continuing the story. And I'm not really emotionally attached to it -- it's hard to get attached to something tossed off in about an hour -- but... still... it's my story. And I am very possessive of my stories. Comes of being a perfectionist, I think.
On the other hand, she obviously wants to write the story, her email was grammatically correct, and she's even offered to let me beta read it. (Not that I really want to beta read it; I know I'd just end up trying to rewrite her story.) And it's not as though it will really hurt my story, no more than fanfiction hurts canon...
I dunno.
Thoughts, anyone?
ETA: I told her to go ahead with it, so long as she makes it clear both that it's based on my story and that I am not in any way involved with her continuation.
