Minisode 32: Xena Fanfiction

This week on XENA: WARRIOR PODCAST, it's a bard's tale! Vera, Katie, and Livy have their quills out and ready for Minisode 32: Xena Fanfiction. First we discuss our own fanfic histories as both readers and writers, and unpack the vital role fanfiction plays in fandom. Then we dive into Xena fic: its evolution as the show aired; its many genres and subgenres including alt, gen, Uber, Conqueror, and FIN fix-its, and the profound effects fanfic had on the TV show's production, the lesbian erotica publishing industry, and on the Xena fan community itself. Plus: Vera doesn't read, the fourth wall, why long fics are so popular, femslash vs. male/male slash, Livy's sandcastle, Vivian Darkbloom's sense of humor, and Missy Good's fadeouts!
