About Quote by Catherynne M. Valente

“I have always been delighted when told there was a piece of fanfic inspired by a book of mine floating about. I don't read it for legal reasons, but I'm thrilled to know it's there. Someone cared. Someone loved it enough to spend their free time writing about it for free.” quote by Catherynne M. Valente — Download Open image
