fanfiction.lol: a small, independent archive of fanworks and original works
247 fandoms | 344 users | 476 works
meant to be fun! spread joy, be excellent to each other,
and express yourself creatively!
hi, i'm Brennan (he/they), i'm Indigenous (Red River Métis) and Queer, and i created fanfiction.lol because i'm a webdev that loves writing. i wanted a website that focuses on the joy and positivity of fandom and transformative works like fanfiction, so i made it!
if you're new to fandom, or writing in general, fanfiction.lol is a great place to start! we're a low-stakes, low-stress website. we believe any and all fandoms, ships, and writing quality are valid, and all deserve a place to call home. we're here to centre marginalized voices and identities that can go underrepresented in fandom, and we will meet you where you are.
this project is a labour of love, and we operate with good faith. if you mess up, that's okay! because we will too—we're new to running a fandom site ourselves! we will always assume the best in people, and try our best in return. you can email me, Brennan, at [email protected] with any comments or concerns, or send anonymous asks to our Tumblr for updates and questions.
note: although this website is a fork of Archive of Our Own, we operate differently in several important ways. Our tagging system is different, and we have expanded archive warnings to help readers better filter work and additional relationship types to help writers feel more represented and validated.
please read our ToS, content policy, and privacy policy for more details.

Over the last day the archive was hit by a wave of copy-paste comments claiming someone's work would make a great graphic novel or webtoon and inviting the author to discuss it on Discord. These are spam that appear on many AO3 forks, and they're not real offers. Basically a one-trick pony. Please do not believe these claims, do not click any links, and do not take the conversation off-site.

First off, hello and welcome!

We've just fixed one of our most-requested features: importing works from Archive of Our Own now works properly.
