Fanfiction …
…has a vocabulary all its own
slash = homoerotic relationships between main characters. Derived from the slash between Kirk/Spock which was the first type, before fanfic even moved online
shipper site = relationshipper = site about romances between two previously platonic characters in a series/book
site clique ??? (maybe what used to be called a webring, maybe community)
collective ??? (maybe a site where people write fanfic together, or a collaborative fanfic site, or a collection of pictures from a series… not sure)
lemon = sexual encounter (lime or citrus is a lighter version!) – is a warning to people who might be offended (e.g.,The following is a lemon story….)
Mary Sue = the author puts herself in the fanfic story usually as the main character’s love interest: an unrealistically powerful, able or attractive character
And my favourite Fanfic site? Not fanfic as such but a study of it
Site looking at the Xenaverse (a doctoral dissertation even) from Christine Boese
