i am currently doing a research project into Elvis fans and would like to ask some questions?
Is there any part of Elvis's work you did not enjoy? e.g a specific film, song, period of time?
do you create any fan fiction? drawings? poems? etc?
Do you have a wide range of knowledge about Elvis? How does having this knowledge make you feel?
Do you speak to/meet up with other Elvis fans outside of the internet?
How did you become a fan of Elvis?
thanks.:)

I just liked his music.
Can't say I liked his movies any more than he did. But, many do.
I don't create any fiction, there's plenty of that out here already.;)
I just enjoy the man and his music. The rest is not important to me.
Yes, I have met some fans in person that I've met on-line.
Most were the best people you'd ever want to meet .
I saw Elvis in concert in 1977.
Been a fan ever since .
Good luck with your project. (y)

Ok, this is easy :D I am willing to help.
1. -movie : "Harum Scarum"
- song : "Old Mcdonald"
2. Sometimes i write fan fiction...I've written only one actually ;)
3. Well, I think I have. As a fan, I never get enough of learning new stuff about Elvis :lol: Sometimes I feel guilty to read about his private life, but I get over it quickly.
3. I speak to many fans on this forum and few other websites and I sure would love to meet up with some! :clap:
Good luck!;)

Happy to answer, would like to have you post your introductory paragraph in return though!
Is there any part of Elvis's work you did not enjoy? e.g a specific film, song, period of time? No one body of work is excellent at all times. Elvis movies, imo, about 75% good-very good. Some movies not good at all, but it's Elvis, I'll watch it anyway!
do you create any fan fiction? drawings? poems? etc? I have written a couple of short stories.
Do you have a wide range of knowledge about Elvis? How does having this knowledge make you feel? This one is a tricky one. I know a whole lot more than a lot of people I know. But not near as much as some people in this site. I read alot about him and I then I have to decide if it sounds like Elvis. If it's something he would have done. He was a private person who let himself be exposed to his fans. He signed hundreds of autographs and let himself be photographed with his fans. Yet I really don't know much about his thoughts and dreams except from what his friends have shared.
Do you speak to/meet up with other Elvis fans outside of the internet?
No
How did you become a fan of Elvis? I saw an Elvis movie as a young child and was mesmerized by his sheer beauty. Later I began to appreciate his music and singing. Now I love his sense of humor and I realize just how musically talented he really was.
