site information
The Why?I created this site to fill what I thought was a major gap in the hanfic world. I felt like we had become disorganized and scattered, and that we didn't have any real system for or convention of thinking about and discussing our fics like I have seen in other fandoms. Plus, I felt there needed to be a record of who and what we are. We are an odd fandom, indeed. So here I am and here this place is. It's kind of like a newsletter or a magazine -- or maybe more like a primer on hanfic. I don't know. It is what it is and hopefully it is interesting and useful to other readers and writers of hanfic.
The What?
The name of the domain comes from Hanson's song "Dancing in the Wind" from their third studio album, Underneath. The second verse of the song is as follows:
Just don't walk away
When I've got you in my arms tonight
And I've got something to say
There are still rules to break
And this music is a place to hide
Isn't it just a game we play
I really felt like that sentiment -- "the music is a place to hide" -- is one that really defines the fandom. So it was only appropriate that it be the inspiration for the name.
