Quote by Tabitha Carvan

“[Emma, a fanfiction writer] says she feels like she has more in common, now, with that twelve-year-old girl [that she was] than with the professor she has seemed to become. "It is just sheerly for fun," Emma says of fandom. "It is grace freely given. It is joy shared without consideration of compensation or payback." To her, it's the opposite of work; it's play. [...] Fandom is about reclaiming that play space for "productive selfishness," she says, and "the assignment of your time according to whatever the fuck you feel like, instead of what would be most efficient, or most advantageous to others. It's as important to me as eating healthy or getting exercise.”
