Canonically Incorrect

Fanfiction author MrsAckermanX (July, Experiment, Fable) joins Sydney to discuss the complexities and community of writing Y/N fanfiction, how fanfiction blew-up on social media during the pandemic and the impact that trend had on MrsAckerman, what women can learn about themselves from reading erotica, and the different communities that you find while publishing on different platforms. Plus, Sydney and MrsAckerman talk extensively about the Omegaverse, their interesting shipping and world dynamics, and the ways that writers turn the AU on its head. As always, send us your fic recommendations, or reach out if you are a fic author who would like to be interviewed in the future, at [email protected].

Well... we've made it. Our 100th episode is finally here, and, of course, we're going to go all out. We wouldn't be here as fanfiction and fandom podcasters, as fanfiction readers and writers, or even as friends if not for one little site you may have heard of... Archive of Our Own. This site has given us so much, so it seems fitting to commemorate 100 episodes with a tribute and a bit of history of AO3. Celebrate with us (and a few special guests who you will hear along the way) as we celebrate fanfiction past, present, and future.

In a slightly different episode than what we normally do, Maya is taking the reins all on her own today to dive into the wonder world of Skyrim, specifically the books inside this action RPG. I hope you all sit back, relax, and let Maya's voice (as she does her best to add voices and immerse you into these stories) lull you into joining her in her favorite massive open-world video game.

We're baaaaaaaaack! Thank you for your patience and understanding while we took a short break, but now we are back and better than ever. Maya has a minor sinus infection (okay maybe not better than ever, but for sure back) and Sydney has a brand new obsession that is Casey McQuiston's 2019 hit novel Red, White & Royal Blue. Alex and Henry have taken up every aspect of her heart and soul for the last month and now that she has you back, she will talk you ear off about these two boys in this fanfiction AU.

Hi everyone. This is a bit of an unexpected update, but we will be taking a break for the next two months (July and August) to focus on our physical and mental health. We've been running full speed at this project of ours for over two and a half years, no breaks, no end in sight, and it has been a wonderful journey with all of you, but we've come to the point where out burnout is greater than our passion. We love working on Canonically Incorrect, so we're giving ourselves this time to remember what makes this so special in the first place. You will still be receiving content from us in the form of our joint Patreon episodes and monthly author interviews. Thank you all in advance for your understanding and support. You have been the reason this has become such a passion project to the both of us. We will see you soon.

As always, send us your fic recommendations, or reach out if you are a fic author who would like to be interviewed in the future, at [email protected]
