I wonder if the writing style of The Outsiders is an early example of fanfiction. We see an author who perhaps adores certain types of people, and instead of responding and admiring the people, the author creates a new work in the style of those people. The author becomes those who she adores. Look, I thought I was maybe a little crazy in junior high school when I wished I could BE the Beatles or the Ghostbusters or one of the Ninja Turtles when everyone else was just watching and listening.
