Just found this comm; looks like I have lots of good reading ahead of me!
"How do I define an AU? For me, it means taking canon characters and making a significant change in their circumstances."
I wanted to know whether you had any guidance to give on how you define AU in terms of originalfics, where there are no canon characters. I've been tagging some of my alternate history as AU; would that count, for the purposes of this comm?
