Reading across Media

Now I am the first to admit that I have not read Harry Potter, Twilight, or Scott Pilgrim, but I do have respect for the fact that the franchises encourage literacy for young adults. I will use this opportunity again to emphasize the growing trend of fan fiction. It is a really popular medium among young adults, and a great way to encourage young readers to work on their creative writing. On Fanfiction.net, Twilight alone has 122,298 PAGES (25 stories per page) of fanfiction. Harry Potter has 404,141 pages (as of today). Here are the links to some of the pages:
