Types of Fiction

For every fiction that exists, there exist an absolute infinite multiplicity of cosmologies, of the real world, of mythologies, of religions, of rumors, of legends, of philosophies, of laws, of constants, of forces, of constants, of forms, of truths, of axioms, of attributes, of principles, of values, of an indescribable amount of transcendence, of descriptions, of names, terms, and essence. For every fiction, there exists metaphysics. For every fiction, there exists pataphysics.

For every fiction that exists, they possess an absolute infinite multiplicity of layers, where the layers extend infinitely in all directions, of which there is an absolute infinite multiplicity number of sublayers in each layer, and higher dimensions and layers have a definite qualitative superiority over lower dimensions and layers.

### Fiction

**Fiction** is literature created from the imagination, not presented as fact, though it may be based on a true story or situation. Types of literature in the fiction genre include the novel, short story, and novella.

### Nonfiction

**Nonfiction** is any document or media content that presents only truth and accuracy regarding information, events, or people. Nonfictional content may be presented either objectively or subjectively. Sometimes taking the form of a story, nonfiction is one of the fundamental divisions of narrative writing (specifically, prose) — in contrast to fiction, which offers information, events, or characters expected to be partly or largely imaginary, or else leaves open if and how the work refers to reality.

### Transfiction

Transfiction is the expanse of all fictional continuities with no limits. It is the unbounded access to every fictional continuity.

* Characters that can operate on this scale have no dimensional limitations, and are beyond scientific definition, in the realm of metaphysics and pataphysics. They are qualitatively superior over an absolute infinite multiplicity of beyond dimensional realms and the concept of beyond dimensional entirely.
* Characters on this scale supersede the story, plot, and author outside of their narrative, publication and copyright.
* Characters or fictions that operate on this scale transcends the author and themselves.

### Fanfiction

Fan fiction or fanfiction is a fictional narrative written in an amateur capacity by fans, unauthorized by, but based on an existing work of fiction. The author uses copyrighted characters, settings, or other intellectual properties from the original creator(s) as a basis for their writing. Fanfiction ranges from a couple of sentences to an entire novel, and fans can both keep the creator's characters and settings and/or add their own. It is a form of fan labor. Fanfiction can be based on any fictional (and occasional non-fictional) subject. Common bases for fan fiction include novels, movies, musical groups, cartoons, anime, manga, and video games.

### Metafiction

Metafiction is that which the author self-consciously alludes to the artificiality or literariness of a work by parodying or departing from novelistic conventions (especially naturalism) and traditional narrative techniques.

### Patafiction

Patafiction is the world of the ineffable, the unknown, and the unknowable, transcending metaphysical narratives, and the laws and boundaries it encompasses. Patafiction encompasses the solutions to imaginary narratives. Patafiction contains concepts that are so distant from Metaphysical narratives that they operate beyond truth, reality, and everything, even "stories" that exist beyond everything.

### Interfiction

Interfiction is that which is between all fictions. In disciplines such as the philosophy of fiction and the knowledge representation of fiction, Interfiction is a distinction that separates fictional concepts from fictional objects which are particular instances of the concept, operating in-between all narrative and narrative elements of experience.

### Personal Fiction

Personal Fiction is the narrative of, affecting or belonging to a particular person rather than to anyone else.

### Impersonal Fiction

Impersonal Fiction is the narrative of **having no personal reference or connection** to any subjective or objective experience - actuality or possibility.

### Incompatibilism Fiction

Incompatibilism Fiction is the view that a deterministic fictional universe is completely at odds with the notion that characters have free will, the latter being defined as the capacity of conscious agents to choose a future course of action among several available physical alternatives. Thus, incompatibilism fiction implies that there is a dichotomy between determinism and free will within the plot/story/verse, where author and character must support at most one or the other, not both.

### Impossible Fiction

Impossible Fiction is the worlds and narratives containing them cannot be conceived. These are logically impossible fictions; simply the unthinkable. Impossible Fictions are “the contradictory narratives that cannot be imagined or thought”. On this approach, basic representational capabilities are not limited to the possible: impossible fictional worlds are inaccessible and cannot be conceived, described, or sometimes even believed; they are absolutely impossibilities.

### Speculative Fiction

Speculative fiction is **a broad category of fiction encompassing genres with elements that do not exist in reality, recorded history, nature, or the present Omniverse**. Such fiction covers various themes in the paracontextual reality of supernatural, futuristic, and other imaginative realms.

### Xenofiction

Xenofiction represents narratives that take the point of view of normal or intelligent animals, or nonhumanoid aliens, with particular attention to differences in perception or outlook.

* Keep in mind that Xenofiction is not synonymous with anthropomorphic.

### Universal Genre

Universal Genre is the essence that anyone can figure out what to do, depending on what kind of fiction they are in, and what kind of character they are.

Universal Genre (Genre Fiction and/or Popular Fiction) encompasses "category fiction", which governs the categories that connect with fictional stories and serves as the familiar shelf headings within the fiction section in any Universe. Universal Genre contains fictional works written with the intent of fitting into a specific literary genre, in order to appeal to readers and fans already familiar with that genre.

* The main genres are (but not limited to) crime, fantasy, romance, science fiction and horror—as well as infinite cardinal, inspirational and historical fiction.

### Universal Trope

Universal Trope is the all-encompassing and underlying nature of stories that tell about subjects that do not exist. Character, locations, and events may be real within fiction or may be entirely made up, but some element of "Trope" will be present. A trope in literary terms is **a plot device or character attribute that is used so commonly in the genre that it's seen as commonplace or conventional**. A literary *trope* is the use of figurative language, via word, phrase, or an image, for artistic effect such as using a figure of speech.

### Paratext

In literary interpretation, paratext is **material that surrounds a published main text** (e.g., the story, non-fiction description, poems, etc.) supplied by the authors, editors, printers, and publishers. Another way to explain it is that the Paratext is *everything that is an element of the whole package immediately encompassing the canon and not part of the text itself*. In other words, the possibility, totality, and nothingness that isn't a part of the show/movie/story itself, but still comes with it. The stuff on the box or the book, the stuff that comes before the show/movie/story, etc.

### Memetic Fiction

Memetic Fiction (The meme) is analogous to a gene, was conceived as a "unit of culture" (an idea, belief, pattern of behavior, etc.) which is "hosted" in one or more individual minds, and which can reproduce itself, thereby jumping from mind to mind. Thus what would otherwise be regarded as one individual influencing another to adopt a belief is seen—when adopting the intentional stance—as an idea-replicator reproducing itself in a new host. A meme's success may be due to its contribution to the effectiveness of its host. Memetic Fiction sidesteps the concern with the truth of ideas and beliefs.

### Transformation Fiction

Transformation Fiction is a genre of fiction depicting a transformation or shapeshifting of one form or another. Whether it's a willing transformation or not depends on the piece of fiction, as well as whenever it's reversible or not, and whether they can transform or shapeshift into more than one type of being.

### a priori and a posteriori Fiction

a priori and a posteriori Fiction is the narrative of foundations upon which a proposition is known. A given proposition is knowable a priori if it can be known independent of any experience other than the experience of learning the language in which the proposition is expressed, whereas a proposition that is knowable a posteriori is known on the basis of experience.

### Cogito ergo sum Fiction

Cogito ergo sum Fiction is a philosophical narrative encompassing the reality-fiction differences of whether or not one exists is, in and of itself, proof that something, an "I", exists to do the thinking — However, this "I" is not the more or less permanent being we call "I". It may be that the something that thinks is purely momentary, and not the same as the something which has a different thought the next moment. This narrative contains the perception of forming a foundation for all knowledge. While other knowledge could be a figment of imagination, deception, or mistake, the very act of doubting one's own existence serves to some beings as proof of the reality of one's own existence, or at least that of one's thought. So in essence, if one can think of it, then narrative exists.

### Cosmogony Fiction

Cosmogony Fiction is the collection of any scientific or abstract mathematical theory concerning the coming into existence (or being), or origin, of the cosmos or universe, or about how what sentient beings perceive as "reality" came to be in any fiction.

### Linguistic modality Fiction

Linguistic modality Fiction is what allows the readers, writers, and narrative causality to evaluate a proposition relative to a set of other propositions. Linguistic modality Fiction is the phenomenon whereby language is used to actualize possible and impossible situations or events. Quintessential modal expressions include modal auxiliaries such as "could", "should", or "must"; modal adverbs such as "possibly" or "necessarily"; and modal adjectives such as "conceivable" or "probable". However, modal components have been identified in the meanings of countless natural language expressions including counterfactuals, propositional attitudes, evidentials, habituals, and generics. There is a Linguistic modality Fiction for:

* "Should be" Fiction
* "Could be" Fiction
* "Must be" Fiction
* "Possible" Fiction
* "Conceivable" Fiction
* "Probable" Fiction
* Counterfactual Narrative
* Propositional Attitude Narrative
* Evidential Narrative
* Habitual Narrative
* Generic Narrative
* Crosslinguistic Fiction

Linguistic modality Fiction comes in boundless expressions that come in different categories called *flavors*. Flavors differ in how the possibilities they discuss relate to reality. For instance, an expression like "might" is said to have epistemic flavor, since it discusses possibilities compatible with some entity of knowledge. An expression like "obligatory" is said to have deontic flavor since it discusses possibilities that are required given the laws or norms obeyed in reality.

### Qualia Fiction

Qualia Fiction represents subjective conscious experiences. For every subjective conscious experience, a reality exists. Qualia Fiction is the way things seem to us. Just like there are many definitions of qualia, which have changed over time, there are many definitions of Fiction. Qualia Fiction on the broader scale is "The 'what it is like' Fiction. For every possibility and impossibility that can be attached to 'what it is like', there exists a fiction or narrative for it. Although qualia are universals, in the sense of being recognized from one to another experience, there is an actualized or possible fiction or narrative that exists that is distinguished from the properties of objects, elements, and chaos.

There are four major properties that are commonly ascribed to Qualia Fiction:

* ineffable; that is, they cannot be communicated, or apprehended by any other means than direct experience.
* intrinsic; that is, they are non-relational properties, which do not change depending on the experience's relation to other things.
* private; that is, all interpersonal comparisons of qualia are systematically impossible.
* directly or immediately apprehensible in consciousness; that is, to experience a qualia is to know one experiences a qualia, and to know all there is to know about that qualia.

If and only if \_\_\_Fiction

If and only if Fiction is a transcendental unconditional logical connective between statements, where either both statements are true or both are false. For every statement, there is a fiction that exists.

Meaning (non-linguistic) Fiction

**Meaning (non-linguistic) Fiction** is an actual or possible narrative derivation from sentience, which is not associated with signs that have any original or primary intent of communication. It is every fiction and/or narrative that operates as the different senses of the word "meaning", independently from its linguistic uses.

### Summum Fiction

Summum Fiction is All things that are imaginable, and all things that are beyond imagination that can be created or self-created. It is the category of types beyond resonation.

Summum Fiction is the creation that creates everything; everybody has a different name for it. Summum Fiction agrees with all of the Names, Terms, Essences, and Unknowables. Summum Fiction is the spectacles or the spectacle of viewpoint, and all created or self-created or uncreated fiction is all correct and they have a perfect place within understanding. Summum Fiction is Total-ness or the All or Being, and then it is the opposite of that which is Nothing or total possibility. These are just philosophical states to Summum Fiction; they are not actual physical states. And if there is a possibility, then there has to be nothing. And if there is nothing, it has to be possible. They automatically create each other. Let's just say there is no existence, no universes, no creation, no dimensions, no nothing. If that is, then it has to be possible for that to be. Those two things are, and they come into bond with each other in a harmonic manner. All things that are imaginable and all things that are beyond imagination are Summum Fiction. It doesn't matter if it is a force, the unspoken word, or that which language fails to describe. It's Summum Fiction.

### ∀fiction

For **All**, **The All**, and **THE ALL** fiction (all of the aforementioned) above.
