When they say "media fandom" do they mean things that are on TV/movies, or do they mean "transformative fandom" or whatever the sparkly pony/pretty princess thing is?

Because if media fandom = transformative fandom then "talk about transformative fandom as it applies to book fandom" is ummm.

I would also argue that fanfic-centric fandom *is* literary fandom -- what are we doing if not writing and reading?

Replying to self... so turning that into a brainstorming thingy, what about something like "turning media fandom literary -- how fanfic can improve tv and movies" or something?

In this case, "media fandom" = tv/movies.

Also, I should mention that "they" = "we" for me now--I'm the volunteer coordinator for the con.
