I love fan fictions! I love how people can have different perspectives about the same characters and plots!

I love fanfiction. Particularly when it's well written. I have been fortunate enough to come across fanfiction writers who easily wrote just as well as a high esteemed author.

It is an art,and a way to pay homage and expound on work that you love. As an avid tv watcher in addition to being an avid reader, I love reading a good fanfic and discovering how others interpret a character. I also love reading the creative ways fans can continue a story long after it's over (specifically with cancelled tv series).

Sometimes it's a great fix when I want to read, but I want something quick and I don't want to take the time to invest in New characters. I get a short story with characters I already know and am invested in.

I have to say this - I love how you explained it. It's very convincing. I agree with this completely

The first fan-fiction book I read was 'Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell'. It was hard for me to complete this book. I read half book back in 2017 and later in 2019 I completed it. This genre is the one I always avoid. I can't read fan-fiction books.

Honestly, I have probably read over 1000 books, but none of them were fan fiction. I will probably try to read one and afterwards tell you my opinion.

I haven’t really enjoyed fan fiction very much, though it doesn’t bother me if other people do

To be honest I don't really enjoy fan fiction, while it can be interesting to read different view points on what happens next, I do feel that it tends to sometimes ruin the experience of the original story.

I have a hard time letting go of the characters and world when I finish a book/series.

To be honest, i've been clinging too long to fanfics and it's been very long since I last read a real published book.

I used to love fanfic when I was a tad younger than I am. I now prefer writing them, since I know what they constitute. Fan fiction offers a unique platform for writers to experiment.
