ladyjax: The POC in SF Carnival #8: Intra-Racial Dialogues - What Lies Between Us - I decided to focus this month's carnival on the relationships that PoC have with one another. Why? Because, we have issues and history with both within our communities of origin and without that sometimes spill over into the cross-cultural homes that we t -
- shfan: Vidding. Why? - I am uncomfortable with the winning and losing concept in fandom. In fandom, I'll never vote. I'll list my personal favorites (but even that list changes from day to day). I'll give feedback to artists whose work I admire. I'll share. I'll celebrate. Fand -

- partly_bouncy: [in fanthropology] History of BandFic, an overview - This represents probably two years of research and three months of trying to write it. The article addresses BandFic as a cultural movement, as fans interacting with fans. -
- on_verra: Meta: Fandom - Slash - Incest - Wincest... - Fiction about this has certainly existed for a long time, but it's become more and more ubiquitous with the growth of fandom and slash. In some circles, it's even become a given, with no explanation necessary. -
