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!

Get in touch!

Whether you have a question, comment, or suggestion, we want to hear from you!

A few weeks ago, Moses is commanded by… Read More

TwitterFacebookLinkedinPrintemailA WEEKLY TORAH THOUGHT FROM RABBI MORDY This week’s Parsha, Vayakhel, contains the actual production of the Tabernacle.

Why? The Torah does not include anything extra and can… Read More
