A book about fan fiction which contains references to many stories I have read and enjoyed, many writers whose names are familiar to me. Detailed essays about specific fandoms I am interested in and follow. History of the fandom that I lived through from its internet beginnings to date. Some essays were a bit esoteric and bored me but for the most part I found them fascinating.
This book describes my life since... well since 1997.
