reviewing sadness, reviewing glee, journal glee

I just wrote a scathing review of a debut novel, which made me feel like crap. But I followed it up with a starred review for a different debut novel, which made it all more than okay. *hugs the good one*

Incidentally, the fourth issue of Transformative Works and Cultures, a special issue on Supernatural, was just released. This issue includes an interview I conducted with the administrative team of the Super-wiki. It was a fascinating interview for me to conduct. Although I know a fair amount about administering fannish wikis, I know almost nothing about Supernatural or its fannish community, and the interviewees quite gracefully schooled me about my incorrect assumptions about their community and their goals.
