Fan Fiction Blog Review: May 2020-March 2021

Categories: Hellos With Fellows, Sarah Lehman

Hey all, it’s been almost a year since this blog became active,

So let’s take a look back before I write the next attraction.

First we had to learn what fanfiction is,

As well as some basic terms in the biz.

So I wrote a basic summary, and added some dos and don’ts

I hope the readers were smart, and made sure to take plenty of notes

Then, I offered some suggestions–a few fics I like to read.

I can recommend some others, if they’re not your cup of tea.

Next came a lexicon of common terms you may hear,

Because how can you use them if their meanings aren’t clear?

I did the same for genres, and then at a later date

Wrote a second part for each, so as to elaborate.

But Gila wasn’t sure that those would be enough,

So I gave some examples using my own stuff.

Gila learned a staff member–Elana by name

Was an active player in the fanfiction game

I sent her some questions for an interview,

And she followed up, so I did a Part Two.

To finish this off, here’s a little sneak peek:

You’ll hear from a fanfiction author next week.

I’ll be writing up that interview soon,

So as always, until next time, stay tuned!

We read a special reading from the Torah associated with Sukkot; on Wednesday, Simchat Torah, we will actually read the final portion (V’zot habracha). So I’m going to share a brief thought on Sukkot in that spirit. Sukkot is seriously… Read More

It’s actually the second to last Parsha in the Torah but we read Sukkot-themed readings throughout the holiday until Simchat Torah, which falls a week from Wednesday, on which we read the final Parsha and conclude the Torah. I’ll save my thoughts on… Read More

TwitterFacebookLinkedinPrintemailA WEEKLY TORAH THOUGHT BY RABBI MORDY This week’s Parsha, Vayeilech, brings us one week closer to the completion of the Torah. It also is the Parsha that always falls out around Yom Kippur (this coming Wednesday night and Thursday); often, it is read together with last week’s Parsha, Netzavim. There is something interesting in the names of both Parshas.… Read More
