Summary
Okay, after a long delay (for which I apologize profusely), we are finally back with Episode 3. Hooray! In this episode, we follow on from last time with a discussion of what constitutes fanfiction and how it is best described and understood. Is there really a good metaphor that can encompass this whole crazy, multi-faceted world? Thus we tackle "Archontic Literature: A Definition, a History, and Several Theories of Fan Fiction" by Abigail Derecho. It is the first chapter in Karen Hellekson and Kristina Busse's Fan Fiction and Fan Communities in the Age of the Internet: New Essays (2006). We hope you enjoy!

Summary
For our second episode, we introduce our fourth contributor, Earis, and spiral off on an involved discussion of Henry Jenkin's 1992 book Textual Poachers: Television Fans and Participatory Culture. This text is now twenty years old, but though it is dated, still contains some interesting insights into fandom, and seemed like a reasonable place for us to start delving into an exploration of academic works on fandoms. Please share this around if you're interested, and feel free to join our communities on either Livejournal or Dreamwidth to get regular updates. We have plans to start crossposting to Tumblr as well, and if anyone has suggestions on how to promote and disseminate this podcast, we would be pleased to hear about it!
