Yes, that's the BEST fanfic and you're doing it cool.

I would suppose this is a secret because there's a lot of fanfic in some fandoms where crazy AUs run wild? For instance, my first online fandom's FF.net section was a sea of cliché mundane high school love stories (it was a series about magic) where one is the nerd and another the jock/cheerleader, or even weirder stuff like mafia AUs and such. Even the ones who were canon-like were wildly OOC or didn't mesh with the canon.

I was one of the ones who wrote the fill-the-gap flashbacks to explain backstories and plotholes, or the introspection vignettes about characters, or the genfic about friendships and families. So, my stuff -and my friends' as well- was all expansion of a canon that its own fandom didn't care much about; as I never got many reviews, I never knew if I was a bad writer or there wasn't an audience. So, I can see why OP might feel lonely and strange if their fandom is anything like that one.

Not even AU's specifically. It depends a bit on the fandom. I'm in seveal and it differs a bit. I'm into slash (though not exclusively)and I find a lot of stories just sort of take place, for the sake of getting two guys together, but it's totally unrealistic. Which I suppose is okay for PWP, but if you're actually writing stories with a plot it bugs me. In some places that seems to be the norm rather than the exception.

I've seen the same with character being back from the dead. Which is also more common in some fandoms than others. Suddenly they're just magically alive. I dunno, say they got shot, you might want to explain how they survived, ended up in hospital or whatever. Especially if the rest of your story is sort of realistic.

I suppose what I see in a lot of fic I read is just wish fulfillment (which is cool) but without any sort of explanation or attempt to tie in in with anything.

when I was writing fanfic, I would write almost exclusively PWP fic. And I still made every attempt at being canon compliant.

Even for just the sex.

OP again: I'd probably like your PWP!
