The Magic of Fan-Fiction
It starts long before the urge to type hits your fingers, long before you realize what's happening. Perhaps you're sitting on your porch, book in hand, hanging on every word that passes. Or maybe you are curled up on the couch, watching the story play out in front of you, so absorbed you may as well be in that world yourself. This is only the beginning of an addiction that will make this world a part of your own.

Supernatural Fan Fiction
To be quite honest, this is not how I expected my life to turn out. I couldn’t remember who I was for the longest time; I was living a “false” life, a dream, according to this guy named Castiel. The last thing I remembered was some drunken jerk hitting me as I was driving home.

Lies We Tell Ourselves
"Cora, did you finish your paper for AP English?" Jade asked from her side of the room. Jade Holland. My roommate for this semester, and also one of my best friends. When I first met Jade this year, I assumed she was a really... particular about her friends—well a snob. However, as I began to get to know Jade more and more over time, I learned that she just has no tolerance for idiots. We share that quality.

Harry Potter Fanfiction: Headcannon Vs. Fannon.
Harry Potter is a great series, with an epic-sized fanbase. Of course, with any fandom, there are fans that want to extend the stories through materials such as fan art and fanfiction. With most things, there is a bunch of shorthand that seems to be a language of its own. Some examples are 'head cannon' and 'fanon.' Head cannon is something that you as the reader make up as you read a book. Stuff like coming up with little backstories of secondary characters that don't get much 'screen time' in the book, and explanations for plot holes in the stories that just never get resolved. On the other hand, fanon is something akin to what fans establish in fanfiction that repeats in other stories. Harry Potter is so accessible to fans that everything from fan art, fan fiction, and heck even things like Wizard Rock bands have cropped up during the height of the popularity of Harry Potter. I am going to focus on aspects of fanfiction for Harry Potter.

Fan Fic Reading Peeves
A lot of people enjoyed my previous article about Fan Fic Review Peeves, so I decided to write another article about my personal pet peeves when it comes to reading fan fiction in general. Once again, let me reinstate that this is not a personal attack on anybody and that you shouldn't feel bad if you are guilty of any of these. To be perfectly honest, I probably did a few of these myself in my early days of writing fan fiction. So without further ado, let's get down to my ten pet peeves when it comes to reading fan fiction.
