Ever wonder how we all came together on AO3 to write about two boys falling in love over and over again. Well, Sydney has the answers for you! Sydney has reverted back to her college days and put together a 10 page, 17 citation paper for you all to enjoy with her. Ever wonder who the first accounted fandom was? How about the fandom that started the modern day fanfiction revolution we know today? What about where the origin of the word 'shipping' came from or how the creators of our favorite shows and books feel about the fan made content? Sydney has all the answers for you! Just sit back, relax and listen to a history lesson you'll never learn in school from your two fanfiction friends. 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]
