Fantastic Fiction

By Gordon Hurd

What was once confined to the underground of Trekkie fandom  has spilled into every bright-eyed nook and cranny of popular culture. Name any TV show, movie, boy band, or anime star and we can guarantee there's a slew of fan fiction awaiting you. Whether you like it or not.

Copyright holders aren't fans of the oeuvre and franchises are likely worried about rampant dilution of their brands. But cool your heels, Hollywood—we've read some of this stuff. We doubt there'll be any bestsellers or blockbusters rising from the depths of the fan fiction forums.

But, let's not be cruel—fan fiction is a constructive way to express your love for your favorite characters and personalities. Perhaps someday we'll see a surge of Buzz Log fan fiction. We suggest a "Walker Texas Ranger" meets "Star Trek" motif. But, please, keep it clean.
