A *fan*, you know - like `I am a fan of The Beatles' or whatever. An
admirer. A devotee. Nothing to do with heat reducing electrical appliances
(:
And a `Fan Fiction' page is a page in which people write things just like
what you wrote - little fantasies on the way *we* would fill the gaps if it
were our job to. There's tons of them all over the web, mostly for TV shows
and movies (crossover fiction is fun too - anyone willing to tackle The
Catcher in the Bell Jar (: ?) but there's no reason it can't work for
literature. Most is done in the spirit of fun - quality needn't be the
top-drawer issue, although some is very good.
Okay then ... anyone willing to write some Salinger Devotee Fiction? (:
