I have come to the conclusion that the LKH stories are simply suefics, written by suethors and the who cycle of bad writing gone to the public. If this is correct, we will find that the general rules of the suethor come into play. 1) There is no stopping them. 2) Their motivation comes from their sock puppets (and in this case, their editors and publishers.) 3) No matter what you drop on them, throw at them or drop them into, a fic will soon appear shortly thereafter, and they will proceed like nothing ever changed. Now that you know the three basic rules, does it go far enough to say the LKH doesn't need reviews and rewards to keep writing?
