Jennifer, I really like your statement “Fanfiction for me was a way to play in the worlds of my favorite stories.” The use of play is appropriate, there is something about fan fiction that involves play, that we are placing these characters in new scenarios to “play” with them. Would a good fanfiction be a story that is believable, but new?

Do you think fanfiction is a way to comment on the text?
