Short story Fanfiction Panel
« on: May 19, 2012, 08:04:43 pm »
I need some help!

I have decided to run a fanfiction panel that has a basis on how to write the different types of short story fanfiction. I need authors that feel confident enough in their skill and style to help me run this.

It will be for 2 hours long, and will cover the differences between the multiple types with emphasis on drabbles, flash fiction, flash prose, frame fiction and vignettes. If there are any fanfiction authors out there willing to either assist me in teaching these and coaching others to write their own or can help give me pointers on precisely what to focus on I would be extremely grateful.

Please feel free to drop me a message here or in pm!

I wouldn't mind helping out with this panel, provided that it won't conflict with my schedule.

A lot of what I write is short fiction (I've been inching my way through the EdWin 100 Themes for years now), if you're interested in having another assistant. What sort of help would you need?  Will this be more of a lecture-style panel with people up front giving a talk, or a workshop with leaders moving among the attendees to give one-on-one advice and help?

A bit of both, honestly. Like teaching the types, then moving around to help others write. So...mini lecture and workshop.

And if both of you help, I would be a happy camper.

Frame fiction is based more on framing a situation within a plot or story. So like a story within a story.
