Robert Stanek is a professional author known in niche circles for making unproven claims of his success, often through the usage of excessive sockpuppet accounts. While no real or fake fanworks can be found on AO3 or FFN, his official forum, Ruin Mist on ProBoards, at least creates the illusion of fan activity, with subboards fanfiction, fanart, and roleplay.
He does have one proven fan, Sparhawk, who is prominent in Bulgarian science fiction and fantasy communities. There were some GeoCities and other early fansites, some of which can be found at Top 25 Keeper Martin / Ruin Mist Sites.
