Do you read fanfiction?

[Danica]

I love reading fanfiction, however I am really picky with what I read; the writing has to be good >< If I read a chapter that is all abreviated english i.e "Ur kiddin me right? WTF R U talking about?" I lose interest as that is not writing for me >< spelling and grammer errors sure I can handle but that really annoys me XD

I used to love Cardcaptor Sakura and Saiilor Moon becuase they were what I grew up with. But now I really like reading Ghost Hunt series and a few Shugo Chara.
Ghost Hunt is interesting because there are so many different scenario's that can happen as its about Ghost Hunting (therefore different places are in every story) and its interesting to see people's takes on the characters as they were very vague in the anime and manga.

Honestly I don't read as much as I used to and I have a few authors favourited and I always read their work but other than that life gets in the way to much XD

I read quite a bit. However, I find that I don't have the time to finish some because I am trackng too many. Seems that on long fics as soon as I read them, theystop getting updated. Feels like I am cursed. I t really is hard to find the time to read as much asI would like i my free time when I am also reading manga and watching anime

I read fanfiction. It's a guilty pleasure.

I usually dip around the Bleach, Naruto and Reborn fanfiction to see what's good or not. Thankfully, this doesn't turn into a full-on addiction and get in the way of my homework. XD

I am a total fanfiction junkie. Since I like games and anime so much I just want more of it! I'm not too much as long as the writing isn't super awful. I think it takes a lot of guts to put up what you write, so I always appreciate the effort.

I still read a lot of fanfiction (though I used to do so more)... I think Inuyasha started it all for me... and when I got into crossovers, I was totally hooked... I often find myself hurrying to finish some series only to be able to read fanfiction... though I often get sad and/or disappointed when the fandom I get into is so unfairly underappreciated...

No I don't. I don't particularly like fanfictions but I do read some doujinshis though

I read more fanfiction than published fiction, lol. It's for this reason that I love having an e-reader. Being without a smart phone, it's the best way to take all my fanfic around with me. (Totally not addicted at all, oh no.)

Frankly I find it fascinating how someone can take these characters and put them in one situation, then another author can put them in an entirely different scenario that is just as believable. (At least, if they're decent authors, and I fail to get past more than a few paragraphs of anything else.) The sheer imagination and malleability in this is just fascinating to me, honestly.

I've tried my hand at writing a few as well, and it's quite interesting to see how my writing has progressed and improved over time. I'm still nowhere near where I'd like to be, especially when I compare myself with some of my favorite authors, but it's a neat perk to have a hobby that's actually beneficial in such a useful way in the outside world as well.

Aside from doujinshis, I don't read any fanfictions. =/

I don't normally read fan fiction, but sometimes if I find out about a really funny one, I will at least skim through it. I remember reading one about Transformers and the character from Harry Potter playing basketball. I also follow a user on Twitter named fanfiction_txt. They just tweet random excerpts from bizarre fanfics.
