Line 17:
Though the two styles are similar, melodramas are distinguished from [[angst]] writing in ''Daria'' fandom in that angst stories focus on intense suffering and are not guaranteed to have a happy ending.
 
A special award for Favorite Melodrama is voted for in the annual [[Daria Fanworks Awards]]. There is considerable confusion when using the terms "drama" and "melodrama," to the point that the nominations for Favorite Drama and Favorite Melodrama often show considerable overlap. (The same dramatic story might win in both categories.) Excellent recent examples of ''Daria'' melodramas, making use of the definition above, would include "[[Apocalyptic Daria]]," by [[Doggieboy]]; "[[The Crow-Daria Ascension]]," by [[legendeld]]; "[[Three]]" by [[Richard Lobinske]]; and "[[Something To Shoot For]]," by [[Dervish]].
