I want to acknowledge people who helped me to write this. 1stundeadrobins suggested that I include the characters as well as relationships, plots and settings as an important element of AUs.
Both Jenny and Mary read drafts of this post and offered helpful and insightful comments which made a stronger essay.
elvenjaneite copy edited the post and made it much more readable.
renay is an awesome editor! I would like to thank her for encouraging me to write this (and many other things) and dealing with the logistics of posting during these stressful times.
And finally thanks to everyone who responded positively to the twitter thread where I first talked about some of these ideas.
