[font=Verdana, Verdana, Arial]So basically, I'm working on an Anthropology class assignment where I'm creating an ABC book on the fanfiction readership/writing sub-culture. Below is my totally unorganized list that I've come up with so far. If anyone has any suggestions, especially for letters Q, U, and Y or for better definitions I would greatly appreciate them.[/font]

[font=Verdana, Verdana, Arial]Yours Truly,[/font]

[font=Verdana, Verdana, Arial]G = Gen-fic == A story with no romantic focus[/font]
[font=Verdana, Verdana, Arial]P = Pairings ==[/font]

[font=Verdana, Verdana, Arial]O = OC (original character) or One-shot[/font]
[font=Verdana, Verdana, Arial]Z = Zine == fan stories that are traded or sold in a physical fashion, either in print or on disks. More common before the widespread use of the internet.[/font]
[font=Verdana, Verdana, Arial]W = WIP (work in progress) = A story that hasn't been completed, sometimes in active progress, though often has been abandoned.[/font]
[font=Verdana, Verdana, Arial]V = Vignette == simple story that focuses on one specific moment of particular intensity[/font]
