Is binding fanfiction legal and ethical? Let's talk about it while I bind a fic!

Thank You for watching! Be sure to check out my video that goes into more detail about the process of making my books! I've listed my sources below if anyone would like to give them a read:

If someone ever told me they printed out (let alone BOUND) one of my fics, just to have it, I would legit cry. It's such a sweet way of knowing that someone liked my fic enough to make it a physical thing in the world.

It's like how medieval people would make their own books (or have books made for them) with the stories they like.

12:50 "and even unintentionally, we create archives and we become archivists" made me think of The Magnus Archives and the want, no, need, to become the Jürgen Lightner of fanfiction has awakened in me 😂

Very interesting video. I didn't know people were binding fanfictions and that there was copyright issues. The more you know

I got a long-term thing I wanna bind myself once I finish it. Although I haven't found many fics that have given me the urge to bind them. What I seek fanworks of is oftentimes so niche and specific, there's hardly anything there. Even so, I'll admit to being a stranger to these lands, given I wasn't much of a fanfic reader till recently.

What happens when the original work's copyright expires shortly? - As then the fanfic-author might wish to publish his/her fanfiction him/-herself once this happens, binding could potentially infringe on the fanfic-author's copyright?
