Hallo all fen:)
Navigation post
I am presently attempting to write a paper about fan fiction.
Since Fan fiction seems to be very much a social phenomenon - So much an inseparable part of the fandom subculture - It would be a very incomplete picture of the fan fiction phenomenon you would get by just reading the fan fictions without talking to the actual fans.
So here be surveys. . .
Questions about Fanfiction:
Fic preferences. . . New
Questions about Supernatural:
What makes this the show for you?
Are you an Ex-Supernatural Fan?New
About the SPN Fandom
About the SPN Canon. . New.
Questions about fandom in general:
Tell me about your fandom involement
Random questions about all things fannish. . .
(Not a survey just me flaunting my ignorance in the hope that some of you out there might be able to enlighten me:)
Feel free to. . .
- Post anonymous answers.
- Send your answers as personal messages if you would feel more comfortable doing so.
- Skip questions you are not comfortable with.
- Re-post these surveys were ever you please.
- Send any of these surveys in orbit in meme-form.
- Comment on my somewhat alternative take on the English language. English is not my first language and I am happy to learn:)
Are you hesitating to answer these surveys?
About the paper: It is mainly going to focus on the literary aspects of the fan fiction phenomenon. Especially the idea of fan fiction as an open sources kind of literature (not legally so unfortunately of cause) Where the reading is colored by the readers knowledge that she has the same "right" as the author to claim the pen for herself and thereby take the fiction in other directions than what the present text is attempting. Thereby making the roles as reader and writer considerable closer and more equal than what you see in the more official literature. Read More. . .
The library: Lists of links and titles - Fan fiction, Essays, Fan art etc. - Basically a collection of all kind of fannish things I have found useful and interesting. I made it for my own benefit, because I find it easier to navigate than my original collection of browser-bookmarks - but I do have the vain hope that someone else out there might find them interesting too . .
