Fandom

SF/F congoers know that I do panels about rape, sexual assault, and sexual politics and problems in fandom - in the community education and prevention branch of BARCC, we're encouraged to identify a community to work with, and fandom is one of mine. ❋ Hani (2009)

The person I know who's in fandom is a big Wincest shipper which - ugh! ❋ Rabid1st (2009)

And of course the authors will follow, because while parties are fun and panels and readings are ego-gratifying, most writers -- especially those who came after me and contemporaries like Joe Haldeman and Greg Benford who grew up in fandom -- go to Worldcon for the same reason they go to any other major con: to do business. ❋ Unknown (2009)

The Master: Nobody in fandom questioned the return of the Master. ❋ Rabid1st (2009)

She is best known in fandom as the former editor of the New Adventures of Doctor Who but is also an author in her own right, and has glancingly referred to her past studies of anthropoliogy and social sciences in her pseudonyms ( "Evan Pritchard" and "Carla Marks"). ❋ Coalescent (2010)

When Lori Joffs stated the following to MTV “About 90 percent of the fandom is just excited to have anything,” said Lori Joffs, co-creator of Twilight Lexicon. ❋ Unknown (2010)

Certainly the growing force of fandom is in favor of Time Lord return ... and so that would probably translate to the Doctor's heroism being some sort of breaking of the time lock on Gallifrey. ❋ Rabid1st (2009)

It's much more credible that The Sun is catching things on the wind in fandom and running with the Chinese Whispers. ❋ Rabid1st (2009)
