Read each selection. Then click the letter of the implied main idea of each selection. In recent years, fan fiction—or fan-fic—has emerged as a popular genre of literature. In this type of writing, authors craft new stories based on other writers’ fictional works and then share the new stories online. Because they don't have to create a new world from scratch, fan-fic writers are free to focus on exciting new plots and storylines. Additionally, fan-fic writers enjoy being able to move outside their comfort zone. A historian, for example, may take a stab at a murder mystery or even a science fiction story. Feedback on fan fiction sites tends to be enthusiastic, constructive, and supportive. These forums function as a nurturing community for writers and readers alike.
