Evil Riggs 2007-06-18 ch 1,	abuseSometimes, I wonder about the entire concept of fan fiction. Most fan fiction is, at its heart, a form of idle wish fulfillment. The prevalence of Mary Sue characters is evidence enough of this; people just want to live out a short, cheap fantasy through writing. However, I have always thought this idea to be slightly dubious - what is fiction if not a fulfillment of some kind of idle fancy? Are not all created characters, on some awkward level, a form of Mary Sue? One could argue it either way. Ah yes - I'm rambling. Back to the point. If all fiction is fulfillment of fantasy, why fiction based on the work of other people? Why alter and personalize the dreams of others? On one level, it's a lot easier than full-on originality. Perhaps it's writerly laziness that drives much of fan fiction. On the other hand, there is a certain catharsis that comes with interacting directly with commonly-shared cultural touchstones. Perhaps this feeling of direct involvement with something we love is the true root motivator. But how does one reconcile that with so-called "Alternate Universe" or "Out-of-Character" stories? Why change known settings and characters so drastically, but keep the reference to the root property? Why not create an entirely new universe and take complete authorship of the material? Once again, a genuine intellectual laziness may be to blame in those cases. One may be willing to change certain elements, but not take the time or energy to completely shift them into original material. At the same time, the allure of transgression - that one is taking something well-known and familiar and twisting it to different ends - is very tempting indeed. In an anonymous setting like the internet, one can take a known property and use it as a sort of creative buoy. From that buoy, one may transgress safely. This transgression may be into territories previously unexplored by the writer - and thus, territories in which they are not very confident. Or, it may be a transgression of taboo material. The prevalence of sexual, societal, or violent themes into previously mundane settings indicates that the author may be transgressing merely for transgression's sake. In the end, the question remains: Why fan fiction? Why not original, mainstream fiction that one could very possibly sell and make a living from? As a writer of fan fiction myself, I have no answer.
