Fannish allows you to explore details and connections between aspects of literary Science Fiction fandom, the conventions, clubs, fanzines and people. Items have descriptions, maps, photo albums, timelines, links to heritage resources, powerful filters and targeted searches.

Read about Intervention, a 1997 Eastercon in the United Kingdom whose guests of honour included David Langford, or read his Twll-Ddu fanzine.

The site is a work in progress. If authors are missing, its probably because their Wikidata entries don't have a Fancyclopedia entry to indicate they are fannish. For conventions and publications, its probably because they aren't in Wikidata yet. Comments on site functionality to webmaster John Bray, errors in content can be fixed by editing Wikidata.
