I'm throwing myself into something I've never done before: podfics! Or rather, multimodal podfics, since it's also a video. With my face. Reading. Being seen. It's more than a bit intimidating. We're planning to do more videos like this in the future, with longer fanfiction, but as a warmup I went with a poem. It's this beautiful poem written by @aziraphalesbian , and I think you'll love it. In the picture, you can see my husband at work with the editing. He also did all the work with rigging our living room with lighting, sound and then coaching my nervous ass for over an hour before I managed to speak in front of the camera. I'm currently making the finishing touches on the video. Gonna have the text poem floating beside my head so you can read along. Posting later tonight!

my fanfiction paper
since @redhead7675 is begging me to tell this story
I’m currently enrolled in a college course called “Researching Writing and Literacy,” and it’s pretty much exactly what it sounds like
the whole class is centered around 3 projects with a bunch of peer review scattered around and all three of these projects build off of each other, with Task One being a breakdown analysis of a “writing literacy,” task two being an annotated bibliography of 12 relevant scholarly sources and like 8 sample texts or images, and task three being the final research paper, which is supposed to be 14-17 pages long but that I ended up submitting as 21 pages this is the longest academic paper i’ve probably ever written or submitted, and it’s about FANFICTION. I don’t usually read college syllabi because i’m a bit lazy and get nervous easily and sometimes i get overwhelmed by project count, so I had no idea that my first project subject would be my focus for the ENTIRE CLASS. he started class off by asking everyone what their most interesting writing literacy was that they partook in-- so basically any kind of writing or words-based activity, other classmates of mine did everything from poetry to keeping up a planner to memes. and, like, yeah, i write poetry, and i’m working on a novel, and that’s great but like 10 people have already given that so you know what? screw it. i wrote my first assignment on fanfiction, which was kind of mortifying because the professor took such a keen interest in this that he kept constantly asking me about my naruto fanfiction out loud in the middle of class which you as you can probably imagine sparked some giggling, and i’ve had to explain that yes fanfiction gets written about real people and yeah i write about an anime and i’ve basically had to answer all his curious questions in class. “haha what’s your favorite character?” my classmates laughed at me. Gaara, for your information, but also, shut up. the first time i tried to cite my own goddamn Naruto fanfiction for this class easybib, the thing i ALWAYS USE for citations, fails on it because apparently there’s no well-recognized MLA format for fanfiction; so not only am i citing my own anime fanfiction, i have to make up my own format for the citation.

i just finished task 3, which was a monster of a research essay assignment, let me tell you, if anyone needs an abundance of academic sources of fanfiction I’M YOUR GIRL. anyway i wrote about everything from multimodalities and intertextualities, to professional hybridity but mostly i focused on community, the paper was on the differences and similarities between published work and fanfic at this point i didnt care about my dignity anymore so i cited everything from stony podfics to davekat

im not joking anyway i just submitted a 21 page paper on fanfiction with 2 pages of references that i spent five hours writing to a college professor, who’s proud of me
