Manacled by SenLinYu
Manacled may be a diamond in the rough, but it is far from the only one. Many writers with prolific careers began in fan fiction. To dismiss a writer’s merit because they did not begin with a strictly “original” story is shortsighted at best and willfully ignorant at worst. Art begets art; creativity and imagination flow on the rivers of our experiences. SenLinYu stands as a near-perfect example of how inspiration can be transformed into something singular and powerful.
