Rating: PG-13 for disturbing shit
Word count: 2127
Notes: pisceanblue is entirely...well, almost entirely...responsible for this one. She not-so-innocently said "Stew/Tay/gong?" to me, and, well, brain went boom. Or is that BONNNNNNG.This is set more or less in the Sex and the Single Drummer universe, but it's not really necessary to have read that one to be amused/horrified by this...

( Come on, Sting. You know you want to. )

The following survey is open for all fans who participate in some way in a band fiction community (you write, you read, run a community, etc.) I don't care if it's rockband fic, emo-band fic, popslash, whatever--all of your input is desired. If you don't understand a question or terminology, don't stop or feel like you have to look stuff up--I want your first impressions, how you would answer these questions based on your familiarity with these terms and ideas now.

Please feel free to pass this along to communities where it might be appropriate, and also to leave comments if you feel you couldn't answer questions properly with a check box choice.

The results of this survey work, when completed, will be posted to fanthropology. Thank you for taking the time to complete it. It was simply written--by me with the input of several other folks on wording--out of curiosity based on recent discussions and is not "sponsored" or being run officially by any particular community or group.

Please be sure to include your answer to the first question about what bandfic communities you participate in or follow (even if it's just to say you read what shows up on your friends list). Otherwise, I won't be able to use your data to see which area(s) of bandom you participate in, or if you're really participating in bandfiction communities at all.

Poll #456 A survey for band fiction readers and writers
Open to: All, results viewable to: All

What bandfiction communities/archives/messageboards/etc do you participate in?

What age group do you belong to?

How long have you been involved in band fandom (writing/reading stories about musicians)?

Do you read/write fiction about other sources as well? (Actors, TV shows, anime, movies, literary, sports, Harry Potter, etc.)

If yes, did you start in band fandom or in another kind of fandom?

Do you consider yourself a part of "media fandom"?

Do you consider band fandom part of media fandom?

Do you feel the term "canon" applies to what you write/read in band fiction?

Do you feel the term "transformative writing" applies to what you write/read in band fiction?

If you write in other fandoms (TV, movies, etc.), do you feel the term "transformative writing" applies to what you write/read in those fandoms?

Would you feel that a group named "Organization for Transformative Works" would be something that represented you as a band fiction reader/writer?

Please read the following mission statement of an organization: "We value media fandom with its rich history and unique identity as a predominantly female culture. We value its transformative works, critical commentary, and vital communities." As a member of band fandom, would you feel this organization is something that represents your interests?

So, yeah, got account here. Refinding friends.

Just curious at this point if anyone is actually posting here who ISN'T also mirroring their posts to LJ, so I can set up a filter I actually read here of those who AREN'T mirroring to LJ. No point setting up rss feeds if it just means I'll see the same posts 2-3 times.

*sigh* Fandom too complicated for me sometimes.

Me, I'm still posting at LJ, don't see that changing anytime soon, though I may go ahead and back up my fic here (under lock as usual).
