What's your fanfic to regular fiction ratio?

[(Anonymous)]

The last secret has me curious.

Re: What's your fanfic to regular fiction ratio?

[(Anonymous)]

Probably around 50/50

Re: What's your fanfic to regular fiction ratio?

[kaijinscendre]

I probably read way more fanfic that regular fiction. I used to read a lot more original fiction when I was younger. But next year I am making it a goal to read 15 books. Just got to find something to be interested in.

Re: What's your fanfic to regular fiction ratio?

This year I've read biographies almost exclusively. Haven't read a single fanfic.

Re: What's your fanfic to regular fiction ratio?

[(Anonymous)]

Changes every so often. I have phases where I read almost exclusively fanfic and then I stop reading fic for a while(usually when I get burnt out on them or lose interest in the fandoms). Also depends on my RL stress levels - I can't really get into long original fiction when I'm stressed out - that's when I prefer reading fanfic.

Re: What's your fanfic to regular fiction ratio?

[(Anonymous)]

I read almost 99% published fiction and non-fiction. I rarely read fanfiction.

Re: What's your fanfic to regular fiction ratio?

[rosehiptea]

95% published, 5% fanfic, or maybe less fanfic.

I write almost exclusively fanfic though - just now and then an original. Not that they've been published of course.

I'd like to read more fanfic but for some reason I tend to stick with really short work (reading and writing.)

Re: What's your fanfic to regular fiction ratio?

On vacation it's about 80% regular fiction; during semester, though, it's swings right to the opposite ratio in favour of fanfic because I simply haven't the mental energy to start or find new material and instead either re-read well-loved regular fiction (which is rare), or predominatly turn to fic because I appreciate the ease of finding just about exactly what I want for the mood I'm in and the time I have to read it in.

Re: What's your fanfic to regular fiction ratio?

[type_wild]

70/30 in favour of fanfic, probably. It's a bit hard to tell, since I can count the books I read, but I never do for fanfic.

Re: What's your fanfic to regular fiction ratio?

[nightscale]

I read more published fiction, I probably read 70% published-lit, but I go through moods where I want some nice and easy comfort-reading and fanfic is good for that.

Re: What's your fanfic to regular fiction ratio?

[silverr]

Waaaay more fiction and non-fiction than fanfic. I probably read more comics than fanfics.

This past year I read at least 50 book-length books, compared to maybe a dozen and a half one-shot length fanfics.

Re: What's your fanfic to regular fiction ratio?

[(Anonymous)]

I'm not really doing fanfic outside of a few kink stories now and then.

Re: What's your fanfic to regular fiction ratio?

[(Anonymous)]

Probably 90% fanfic, mainly because I read a shit ton of fanfic. I would read three or four novel-length fics a week and love every minute of it, if there was enough fanfic for my OTP to support my habit.

Re: What's your fanfic to regular fiction ratio?

[(Anonymous)]

Lately all the ~real books~ I've been reading are nonfiction, so it's like 99% fanfic for me right now.

Re: What's your fanfic to regular fiction ratio?

[(Anonymous)]

100% regular fiction these days, to be honest - but with a caveat. I read a lot of "original fics" online on fanfic archives, so they are basically just fanfics but original.

Re: What's your fanfic to regular fiction ratio?

[(Anonymous)]

I actually don't read fanfic at all, though I write it

but I absolutely identify with the inability to find published fiction that I like. I've tried the library. I've tried getting recs. I've tried just taking a gamble based on the summary. I have been so disappointed that I canceled my library card and don't even bother asking for recs anymore. I guess I just won't read books anymore.

Re: What's your fanfic to regular fiction ratio?

[(Anonymous)]

I definitely read more books and manga than fic. I read a hundred books this year and about twelve fics.

Re: What's your fanfic to regular fiction ratio?

[(Anonymous)]

Maybe 45/55? I don't read as much as I would like for both fanfics and regular books TBH.

Hurrah! Time off!

[(Anonymous)]

As of Monday, I will have three blessedly student- and family-free weeks! Of course, I do love my family dearly, and I enjoy teaching and my students are, by and large, a lovely group of people. BUT OMG YAY PEACE AND QUIET AND TIME TO DO RESEARCH!!! <3 I am fully intending to spend most of the holidays in bubble baths, and/or lounging about in the altogether with an improving book or two.

How are those of you lucky enough to have time off going to spend it?

What stuff do you enjoy eating, that it seems a lot of people don't?

[(Anonymous)]

Nom nom nom.

What controversial fandom opinions do you have?

[(Anonymous)]

Got any opinions/interpretations on a story that goes again fandom consensus? Bonus points if it even goes against Word of God.

What in-jokes do you have with your SO/partner?

[(Anonymous)]

Or family member or close friend or whoever I guess. Just curious about people 's dorky in-jokes and the like :D

Time is an illusion

Voltron: Legendary Defender ran from June 10, 2016 – December 14, 2018

What the fuck. Not even three whole years I thought it was at least five.

[(Anonymous)]

People refuse to write this one pairing in the extremely specific way that I want to read it

And frankly, it's fucking horseshit
