asimplechord1. Henry Jenkins is awesome. I want to have his job when I grow up. And he's gonna have a new and interesting dialogue about and between fanboys and fangirls on his blog this summer. *bookmarks* I have a huge list of new fandom/fanthropology books and articles to read now.
2. Just a thought that kept recurring during the Shipping the Velvet slash panel. Why must slashers' ideas of fanfiction follow the traditional romance novel pattern: fall in love/lust, get married, have babies? (And while we're talking about babies, one of the panelists mentioned some SPN mpreg, in which Dean was the "mother". WTF? *bleaches eyeballs*)
3. The presentation on Mary Sues and slash and gender envy? Had to leave before I threw something at the lecturer.
4. The Drunk Eaters? Scary. Especially Bellatrix.

There are some more specific journal articles Jenkins mentioned, but I don't know if maybe some of their contents are re-hashed in the various collections of essays listed above, especially his two most recent, Convergence and The Wow Climax. I'll have to check the books and see.
