In Episode 199, "Reflecting Reality?" Flourish and Elizabeth tackle a trio of listener questions on the ways fanfiction does—and doesn't—mirror our own lives. Topics discussed include changes in how queerness has been depicted over the past few decades, whether longer-running fandoms tend to produce more generic modern AUs, and the ways English as a global language of fandom shapes fic setting choices—and creates a sense of placelessness, no matter where an author lives.
