Description

Join me for a look at the history of modern fan-fiction, its wild and wonderful strangeness, its relationship to sexuality and sexual liberation, just a little bit of everything. Titanic fan-fiction was a part of my childhood and remains a part of my life now; guys, there are GREAT stories on Fanfiction.net and Archive of Our Own (though truly you have to wade through some crap to get to them sometimes.).
