No full textNe glede na fanovstvo oboževalci ustvarjajo besedila, računalniško obdelane slike, avatarje, računalniško obdelane videoposnetke, ocene, analize itd. kot odziv na izvirno delo, ki jih je prvotno navdihnilo. Z istim namenom nastajajo tudi "fan fiction" zgodbe, ki so tesno vezane na izvirna dela. Predvsem leta 2011 s prodorom "fan fiction" avtorice E. L. James na profitni trg s svojo trilogijo 50 odtenkov sive je "fan fiction" prejel večjo pozornost. Njeno delo je bilo v osnovi "fan fiction" zgodba s knjižnega fanovstva Somrak, avtorice Stephenie Meyer. Od tu izvira ideja magistrske naloge, ki "fan fiction" dela primerja z Darntonovim komunikacijskim krogom knjige. Naloga pregleda široko področje "fan fiction" del, od zgodovine, oblik do pregleda nad tujimi in slovenskimi spletnimi arhivi in tudi fanzini. V nadaljevanju se avtorica naveže še na komunikacijski krog knjige, kjer primerja "fan fiction" na točkah komunikacijskega kroga. V sklopu raziskave je bilo izvedenih pet intervjujev s slovenskimi avtoricami "fan fiction" zgodb, vprašanja so bila osnovana na primerjavi "fan fiction" zgodb s komunikacijskim krogom knjige in so zajemala tako poglede s strani avtorstva, kot branja "fan fiction" del.No matter what fandom it is, fans create texts, fanarts, avatars, fanvideos, reviews, analysis etc. as a reply to original work that inspired them. Fan fiction stories come to life with same purpose and are tightly connected to the canon. Fan fiction mainly gained bigger attention in 2011 with E.L. James\u27s trilogy 50 shades of grey and its entrance into profit publishing market. Her work was primary a fan fiction story based on literal fandom of Twilight written by Stephenie Meyer.

Further, the author includes comparison between fan fiction and segments of the communication circuit.

The mixture of cultures, ethnicities, religions, lifestyles and classes is much more visible when observed from the top position. The collection initiates the concept of the translit fiction, particularly in “Memories of Decadence”.
