Are you having a Renaissance (tm) this year (or every year!): No, but willing to be inspired!

Food for Thought

How does better (arguably) queer rep in canon affect your relationship with fandom? […]: I’ve always liked the gaps in canon and how people fill them so canon queer doesn’t really affect that for me. That said, I’ve had very little inclination to read fanfic for a while so [shrugs]. I’m reading lots of mm romance so I guess that fills my reading itch. Fandom itself is limited these days to what I’m seeing people share on Twitter.

I have an idea for something I would like us to discuss and I would like to run the discussion myself: Sorry, no.

Oh god the puriteens. No, go away.
Almost all of my current fic reading is in fandoms where the queer relationship is canon, but that hasn't stopped my inhaling of fic. I read for different takes, different viewpoints, and sometimes just to feel the deliciousness of the original plot tension over and over (and over) again.

How does better (arguably) queer rep in canon affect your relationship with fandom? Fic still necessary? Just fun now? Still better thought out than lazy shoehorning? Worse than ever? Too many puriteens? Sound off here:
I reckon fic is still necessary. Of course I don't actually like watching narrative tv anyway, so my only contact with a lot of fandom is the fic. And a twitter eye view of what other people are enthusiatic about at the moment (hi #911!). Puriteens are irritating, but I am very sure I was an irritating teen myself, and have probably not entirely stopped yet, so I try not to let it bother me.

Too many puriteens? Sound off here: Depends on fandom. Even though a lot of shows/movies now have canonically queer characters, it's still rare that they get much limelight so lots of room for fic to fill out all the details! I do find myself less I NEED IT for fic for queer books though where the canon already does everything I want already.

As someone who got my writing start with fanfic and now writes professionally in video games, comics, and books, I have a lot of feelings on the subject. It occurred to me earlier this year that I have not worked on a single video game that didn't have canon queer content. Not a single one! Ever! I do not think a career like mine would have been possible not that long ago.
