ADFers! You're my only hope! (haha. i'm dumb)
anyways, i honestly DO need some assistance. I have a friend that volunteers at the local library a lot and the event coordinator is always trying to keep things interesting and attract the young and the old. So she's having an event all about FANFICTION, which my friend has been invited to give the main presentation for.
She is an old school HP fandomer and she's dabbled in other fandoms so she wants to make sure she covers all her bases. Which is where you guys come in. We need input. (and this is an ALL AGES event so keep that in mind)
Obviously the biggest fandoms in recent years have been HP, Twilight, HG, and SuperWhoLock, so shes going to be sure to mention them but what should she cover? What terms? Are there stricking differences between fandoms?
The other day I tagged her in a post on tumblr about the word squick and what it meant in the fandom world. What should she talk about to possibly bring in and inform new writers, or give older writers good memories.
Thanks!
