Just because I'm curious...
Apr. 30th, 2007 10:56 pmNever posted a poll before.
I honestly don't believe this will be very valid, since in order to be valid, everyone who reads my journal, plus people who don't would have to respond to it. Otherwise all you get is a random sampling. And while I do have people of both genders on my flist, there's no guarantee both will answer the poll. I know for a fact that there are men on lj who have written fanfic - I've read it. But will they respond to this poll? Shrugs.
But what the hey. I'm curious. Will completely understand if you want to skip. I rarely do these things myself. ;-) (Not completely true - I've done D'H's and Superplin's.)
[Poll #976429]
Oh if you do write or read fanfic in the comments - rec a great fanfic that you've written or read in your fandom of choice. Also be sure to state what it is about. Whether it is romance, action, sex, character oriented, and if the writer is male or female. And of course the fandom.
Ugh. I have no clue how to edit polls in this thing. At any rate - the category with more than one fandom to write fanfic in? Sorry - you should have been able to choose more than one category. Since you can't pick the one you write the *most* in.
Also "under canon" should mean "follows the canon" or adheres to the story as written by the original authors/writers of the show or story. This does not necessarily exclude slash, unless of course it is The West Wing. ;-)
Also if you read or write fanfic in a category I did not list - mention it.
And here's a challenge - can you rec any fanfics written by men?
