What is Fan Fiction Good At, or Good For?

“In portraying characters that other people already recognize, characters whose further adventures other people already want to read, nonprofessional creators can find a wholly voluntary, non-paying audience of people whom they will never meet. No clearer path from new writers to potentially interested readers has existed in the history of civilization... The interesting question at this point is not whether fan fiction can be good, by familiar literary standards. Rather, it’s this: What is fan fiction especially, or uniquely, good at, or good for? Writers who started out with fanfic and then found the proper mix of critique and encouragement could go on to publish ‘real’ (and remunerated) work.” — from “The Promise and Potential of Fan Fiction”, The New Yorker, 2017
