This blog offers a bridge between the OTW’s academic journal and fannish discussions, through posts that discuss both fannish meta topics and fannish perspectives on fan and media studies. Our hope is that the blog spurs greater interest in and engagement with Transformative Works and Cultures among fandom, and extends the reach of TWC by linking to and discussing ideas and themes presented in the journal.

Although we are primarily situated in LJ/DW-based media fandom, we will also attempt to address topics and fan cultures beyond that base whenever possible.

We welcome your feedback, comments, and ideas.
