The '''Daria fandom''' is an international and informal community drawn together by MTV's animated series ''[[Daria (TV series)|Daria]]''. The fandom is supported by a wide variety of media, including web sites, fan fiction, fan art and videos. However, the fandom not only interacts online in internet forums, but also gathers at informal meetings. Producer by [[Soup2Nuts]].
 
Despite the show’s ending in 2002, ''Daria'' fandom remains active and well connected, thanks almost entirely to the Internet. Many old fans have stuck around since the end, and both old and new fans still join the community occasionally. Regardless of length of time around, plenty of fanfic and fan art is being produced, albeit not at the same rate as before. However, there is enough going on to give reason that ''Daria'' fandom still has a lot of life left in it.

===Serial===
Serials exist to give authors a chance to get feedback on a work as it is being written. Serial fics occur when a writer posts histheir fic on a message board in installments. After each installment is posted, the patrons of the board can comment on the story. The author then posts the next part, and the cycle continues until the work is complete. The author then cleans up the fic, using the comments given on the board, before sending it out to the fan websites. This form of writing was popularized by [[The Angst Guy]] after the advent of the current form of the [[Paperpusher's Message Board]] in July 2003. At this point, many authors are using the serial route to write their fics.

Line 107:
Numerous fan sites exist in Daria fandom. Their purpose is often two-fold. The first is to give background information about the show and its characters. The second is to host and store fanworks. Below is a list of selected Daria websites, some of them are now defunct.
 
*'''MTV's Daria Page:''' The official site of Daria from MTV. Despite the fact that it's been threetwenty-two years since the series ended, the site is still somewhat functional.
 
*'''The-N's Daria Page:''' The-N's page on Daria. Likely due to the demographic the-N covets, the site is low on actual information.
