What is fan fiction? It is a story written by fans or admirers of the original book, show, or movie. These creative stories utilize the same characters and usually follow the plot line. They come in a variety of forms. Some begin where the book or movie left off. They may continue into the future, where the characters continue on with their lives. Attention is placed on maintaining the integrity of the characters, since these stories are supposed to be a continuation of an existing plot, not an entirely new one. Writers may also expand on a current scene or section of a story. They can explode a scene with details that were not originally given. While the main story line is usually maintained, authors may pair different characters together, or create more drastic changes in the plotline. Often times a writer will explain the setting and premise of their own plot line in the introduction. One does not need to go to the bookstore to find these stories.
