Information from interviews, documentaries, music videos, and other publicity sources are assimilated into the stories. It is also very popular to write fiction about celebrity couples. Communities of writers build collective archetypes based on the celebrities' public personas. Communities also develop their own ethics on what sort of stories are acceptable – some are uncomfortable with <a href="/wiki/Slash_fiction" title="Slash fiction">slash fiction</a>, or with mention of the celebrity's real-life families, or with stories involving <a href="/wiki/Suicide" title="Suicide">suicide</a>, murder, or <a href="/wiki/Rape" title="Rape">rape</a>.
