CFP: Slash Fiction Study Day 3 (25 February 2008)

SLASH 3: THE FINAL CUT
THE 3rd AND LAST DMU FANFICTION STUDY DAY
  
Clephan Building,
Faculty of Humanities, De Montfort University,
Leicester, UK

Monday 25 February 2008
10.00 am – 6.00 pm

With Slash 3, De Montfort University once again offers a slash-friendly forum for discussion of the most exciting developments in fanfic. The main focus will be on slash fiction, a category of fan stories, almost exclusively by women, mostly about homoerotic affairs between male characters in popular films and TV series. Proposals are invited, however, for papers on all fanfic and fan film topics and controversies.

Please send an abstract of 200 words for a 20 minute paper to Ian Hunter at [log in to unmask]

DEADLINE FOR PROPOSALS: 1 December 2007

All readers, writers and academic researchers of fan fiction, as well as interested members of the public, are welcome to participate.

Please contact Ian Hunter at [log in to unmask] to reserve a place. An attendance fee of £20 / £12 concessions will be payable on the day.
