Mina de Malfois is an online serial story parodying fandom. It is written in first person, as if told by its main character, Mina de Malfois, however, the real author remains anonymous. Chapters are posted on Dreamwidth, LiveJournal, JournalFen, and InsaneJournal as they are released, and eventually collected into books which can be bought in print form or downloaded as PDFs.

The story follows Mina, a BNF in the fictional Sanguinuity fandom. Many events and characters in the story are based on actual fandom events and people (much of it culled from the headlines of Fandom Wank), and there are footnotes provided for each chapter, for those who may not get the jokes right away.[1]

Footnotes for Seasons 2 and 3 are friends-locked at JournalFen. Footnotes for Season 2 are available in the PDF download from Lulu. Footnotes for Season 3 are available at the individual entries at Dreamwidth.

Mina's author encourages fanworks and there is both a small fic archive (now offline, partially archived here) and a list[2] of fanart, fanfic, and podfic.
