Fan Fiction anyone ?

[questR]

Is there going to be a fan fiction section in this forum?

 

[CzarinaAnya]

I would enjoy that. As long as they're PG, though.

Can you elaborate a bit?

 

[questR]

Yes. Will you have a section in the forum where people can post fan fics?

 

[questR]

I mean of course, fan fics about skaters.

 

[gsk8]

Not sure I follow fan fic.....elaborate?

Fan fiction about fictional skaters? Would it be "everybody contribute a chapter" or would one person be responsible for a whole "episode"?

I guess I've only heard of fan fiction in relationship to Star Wars, which was fictional from the beginning.

Fan Fic usually means writing made-up stories about real skaters. How Michelle saved the world from mad terrorist spies at the Olympics and fell in love with Alexei Yagudin on the side.

We used to have a "poems and stories" section, which attracted a few entries before it disappeared for lack of interest.

I personally like the idea, if anyone wants to contribute. Mostly it provides an opportunity for young scholars to do some creative writing, using their favorite skaters as subjects. Often someone will start a story and then solicit ideas from the "audience" about what ought to happen next.

Maybe we could do it in the summer off-season, when there is not so much going on.
