Alice in Wonderland was originally two books by Lewis Carroll, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There, that were published in 1865 and 1871. The books were extremely popular and have been adapted for film, television, and theatrical productions many times.[1] The well-known Disney animated film was released in 1951 and combined plot elements from both of the "Alice" books. A new live-action film directed by Tim Burton, intended for a more adult audience, was released in 2010.

Fanfiction about Alice has been around ever since the first book was published; however, the Tim Burton film caused a surge in fanfiction productivity.

  • When Curiosity Met Insanity, or WCMI, is a popular ongoing webcomic, begun in 2006 by co-creators Rain and Brianna Garcia (or "Bri-chan"). It details the courtship of an adult Alice by the Mad Hatter (who goes by the name "Reginald" in this universe) in a version of Wonderland that's populated by characters from every animated Disney movie to date. The personalities of Alice and Reginald were both partially inspired by observed interactions between the costumed characters at Disneyland (where Rain and Brianna both work). The main story features segments of writing (Rain's) interspersed among the artwork (Brianna's). WCMI has amassed a dedicated fanbase over the years, and has inspired quite a bit of fanart and fic. It's currently located on Tumblr, and has communities on both Livejournal and Facebook.
  • Sunny Disposish, by Valadilenne, is a Hatter/Alice fic inspired by the WCMI webcomic. It too has attracted a small but dedicated group of fans, many of whom have produced fanart for the fic. As of this writing (October 2014), it's still a WIP, currently up to thirty chapters (not including a handful of side stories.)
