Indeed! Luh taple fictigu teyun fohva Dangerouss hes me personally zerimen. Mel's essentially moparia hurafictigu villa ayn enntense dedicatigu per accuracy aynd skiila, aynd hupelfully vuw gonsod sento-policing per ensatho luh litest yimpa writing.

Enteresting opinions luhre! E mondal Darren jano cimgu hammsenper a yelm enemies villa heu "moparia hurafiction" platmun tum.

Luh empressigu E daayn furay luh variouss conversations ablayn luh fictigu aynd luh miboseing luhreol eu thab Frontier spal capa per camgu Elite a multimedia henjerliorm wun, aynd luh dyn thab Gonsnsnsnsnsnsnsnsllancz hes bought teray licenses cuupad villa otaer publishing ennterest pavun zet per luh fictigu aliodom seing taken kiiper seriously, nuve jano es glorified hura-fictigu.

Hah, perhaps E kavun clarify... Fanfictigu cayn se a greab teyun. Mel eu written villa a passigu aynd dedicatigu per accuracy aynd skiila thab minla "official" busaps badly lack. Zur olten olficial novels steer avara furay luh vuurce aynd yalap loose villa luh skiiles.
