Curate, connect, and discover
Without ao3, I can feel the life seeping out of me. Every passing minute the life force drains from my body, turning me into a sickly grey. My eyes are drooping and I can feel my organs start to fail. I can already see the light, shining so brightly above me. I am only hanging on by the transfusion of fanfiction.net. However, that is not my only woe. I can feel old fandoms creeping up behind me, ready to drag me back into their grasp. Danganronpa got me a week ago, yttd a few days before. Is this the end? Has life come full circle? What will historians think a hundred years from now? What will this crisis be called? The Fall of Creativity? Fanfiction Fodder? The Great Suppression? As a collectivity everyone has united in this detrimental time. We must stick together, offer up other sources to consume media created by talented, life providing authors.
How I use fanfiction.net:
Step one: search fanfiction.net
Step two: type the name of the character you want to read about
Step three: hit search; you will get a differentiating amount of results; use the box labeled narrow results to make your search more specific. It does not filter out ships, characters, and other stuff. However, it can give you fics based on what you choose, such as language, genre, etc..
This can help you @castielssuperhell
I’ve been without ao3 for too long that I’ve resorted to using fanfiction.net again.
Reblog and put in the tags: the fandom for which you read your first-ever fanfic, and which website you found it on.
We're Dream Plane and El Droide. If you recognize us, you've probably seen us on FFN and AO3. If not, HI!!! It's nice to meet you. :D We're going to be bumbling around here a bit as we figure out how this Tumblr thing works.

I just woke up and am hypothesizing:
Has anyone else every thought that a large part of the reason romantic fanfiction is so attractive to women is that a majority of the authors are women? And women know how to write the female gaze. Having the female gaze applied to your favorite media (which is probably heavily effected by the male gaze) is attractive.
I remember a poll someone did for fanfiction authors and a large chunk, much bigger than 80%, were women and when I write a lot of the times it’s my fluff scenes that readers seem to be more effected by.
(anyways anyone got any interesting outsiders fic recs that maybe by some miracle i havent read yet)
i need more outsiders aus like the ones where pony goes back in time or something like "Changing Places" and "What Isn't Real" by Emily_F6 cause those were so gooooooddd and I need to see more of smth like that cause i love how chaotic it is and how much you can do with it and in turn write a happy ending. someone pls
