The Allure and Purpose of Fanfiction


[by lurafita]

Fan fiction is a way of the culture repairing the damage done in a system where contemporary myths are owned by corporations instead of by the folk.
- Henry Jenkins (Director of media studies at MIT)

Sometimes fanfiction is a love letter to the original 

canon, sometimes it’s just that one telegram that 

says “Fuck you. Strongly worded letter to follow”.

But this is also very true, LOL!

fanfic titles be like “we have not touched 

the stars (nor are we forgiven)” and then 

you look at the tags & the first one is “anal 

fisting”
