Wreader

    
is a hypertextual term coined to describe the experience of mediating a hypertext piece: are you reading it or writing it? All hypertexts provide the wreader with a role in the production of meaning as well as in the formation of the text itself. 

     The
wreader has agency and autonomy over the text, and no longer has to read the information in the sequence given to them, but rather can construct their own textual order. 

      In an analogous theorization, the practice of "fiction theorique" (fiction theory) created by Quebecois writer Nicole Brossard establishes a critical relationship between reader and writer in which "the feminist reader [has] gone co-creator. Turned writer... a reading
with rather than about the text" (Collaboration, 54).  Keeping this similarity in mind, the parallels are obvious between subversive writing created for the page, and the disruptive wreaderly texts which can be borne out even more effectively in cyberspace.
