This is really what I was looking for, thanks!

The part about the goal being evoking a set of emotions - I'm not sure we should concern ourselves about the goal though. It is not remarkedly different from a Harlequin romance, is it? Or even, say, Galsworthy's novellas ;)

And emotional plot vs event-oriented one, hm, this isn't fanfic prerogative. Lyrical prose does not by itself a fanfic make. Take The Left Hand of Darkness - how much is there of emotions vs events? I mean, events are there but they obviously are a vehicle to carry emotional growth to its extent.
