Perhaps it'll be better posting the question here:
What is the current status of the Jerry Cornelius character? He's Michael Moorcock's character, that much is a given, and I have every intention of providing credit where it's due (and this extends to John Harrison, too), but I don't know how 'open source' Jerry is these days. Is it frowned-upon to use the character in a short piece of fiction, or is it all right, provided the would-be writer doesn't try and profit off it?
Forgive me for sounding timorous, I'm just that I'm not used to playing with other people's creations, but I have my head up against a concern that more-or-less merits using Jerry. The only intention I have as regards the finished piece is to post it in the writer's community of which I am an admin. If that isn't kosher, then I'll keep it to myself.
Thank you for your time.
