Oh yeah, killing people in stories isn't a sign of hating them. In my stories, killing is usually a sign of love, honestly! I only hurt the ones I love LOL.

Or people/celebrities that are really well known. Really, it says a lot about the person.

At least, as long as you portray the person realistically without making anything up about the person in question. I would never make up stuff about anyone and put it in a fic. If I write someone in, I write them true to life. What happens after that is purely fictional, though, obviously. I'm sure some may or may not like what they see about themselves of course.
Though... it does lead to the quote in my siggy.
"Don't annoy the writer. They may put you in a book and kill you." - Anonymous
It's well known that authors write what they know at least somewhat, whether it's places, or people. Sometimes in a flattering way where good things happen to the person, sometimes bad things happen. Well known authors do it, as do nobodies. Otherwise it wouldn't even be a quote.
It's harmless really.
For example - in a round robin parody, Nick dies in every chapter. Do I hate him? No. Do I want him to die? No. It's all done in humor and fun. :) Isn't that the point of fiction?

Well here's the thing, you should probably take your own advice then and follow your own set of rules you came up with yourself. Talk about skirting rules.

I believe I did. Not to mention, this really isn't the place to start drama. If you'd like to have a discussion about fanfic, then we should discuss it here. Anything else, I'd rather not. You can do that with yourself. :).

No... you didn't. I was discussing fan fiction and the thoughts and actions one takes when writing a story. But then I read your line of crap and laughed. :D
