    Abstract:
    Fanfiction is a popular phenomenon that has been specially growing since the beginning of the 21st Century. Different factors galvanise this rise, such as fanfiction’s availability or how easily one can contribute to it. Nevertheless, despite this popularity and growth, fanfiction is not a subject widely investigated. Considering this dearth and the many ways in which fanfiction’s research can be done due to its diversity, this paper focuses on a comparison between works that do not depict a fair representation of queer characters and their fanfiction version. Results from this analysis show that fanworks reinvent a more LGBT-friendly version of the original work they are based on by avoiding negative stereotypes and including the writers’ experiences as queers on their writings, among other techniques shown throughout the dissertation
