fan fiction writers
Unauthorized sequel authors
Fan fiction writers are people who create stories using characters, settings, or worlds from existing media—novels, films, television shows, video games.
They write for love rather than profit, typically sharing work in online communities.
The practice ranges from faithful extensions of beloved universes to radical reimaginings: Fan fiction writers have produced millions of words set in the Harry Potter universe.
Some explore relationships the original never depicted; others fill gaps in canonical timelines or resurrect killed-off characters.
