riddle me this

Define fanfiction.

note: that's fanfiction, so it's okay if you can't think of the ninety-nine other categories of fan____.

Ehehe, the 'intertextuality' snuck in there because I originally had philosophical meanderings and then segued into fanfiction -- and I tried to split the two (so as not to over-jargonize the public post) and... looks like I missed a few. Heh.

while tie-in books might be fairly described as formal for profit fanfic, most people would not describe them as such without much disagreement.

I think there's a double negative in there that's tripping me up. You mean, tie-books could be formally described as, and people would mostly agree? or that people would not mostly disagree? or would mostly disagree?

eerrrrggghhh, nothing gets me worse than double negatives. I have no idea why.
