Well,

This is it, the final of final assessment tasks before I graduate in July. My task is to write a 2000 word journalistic feature article. I have chosen to explore the world of fanfiction; it’s large and so many people from many walks of life around the world take part and I feel that it is an untapped resource of creativity. To investigate this, under the cut I have a series of questions I would like to put to you the writers/readers of fanfiction.

If you could when answering the questions please number your answers relating to the question you are answering and be as honest as possible.

Should you not wish to post your answers on my journal you may email them to me at - angelpi74@yahoo.com.au. All personal information will be kept confidential and by completing this questionnaire you give permission for your answers to be published.

I would like to thank you for your time in helping out and when I have finished the article I will post it on my lj if you so wish for all those to see.
