We have not one but TWO promptathons running for the duration of AO3's downtime!

snowedinalonetogether.dreamwid is themed around characters being stuck somewhere, alone or together ("snowed in" in spirit but can be anything really). No length requirement.

ao3-isdown.dreamwidth.org/ doesn't have a theme, but asks for 1k+ words for the fills. Because, you know, we have some time so might as well make good use of it.

Come post prompts and maybe fill something =)

@bright_helpings@mspsocial.net

Another place people who miss can go, or come back to, is Dreamwidth, which carried on LiveJournal's legacy of being a home for fandom writing and nerdery (to the extent that I've always felt slightly out of place for not being involved in this!).

Here's a list of communities (curated by someone I follow who knows about such things!)

Because AO3 is still down:

"This is an extremely good point. Nothing wrong with uploading your own fics or sharing things privately amongst friends. But don’t reupload work that isn’t yours publicly. Even with the best intentions, it’s not yours to do whatever with." --@KittiLeeCreates on Bluesky

From 24×81 on tumblr:
"guys. don't upload fics that aren't yours to a temporary website just because you need to read it on something that looks like ao3. i shouldn't even have to explain it. people are sharing massive folders of downloaded fic amongst fandoms, probably more than enough to last 4 weeks if it gets that bad. taking that work and uploading it somewhere else without the authors permission is gross. don't go signing up to a website that you don't even know who's running it and leaving kudos and comments there."

I have copies of all my fics (and fics I love), in various formats (mostly txt, pdf, epub, html - and some on paper!). I'm in the process of putting them into markdown for the revamp of my homepage. I'm old enough to remember times when sites died from one day to the next, and stuff you loved simply disappeared (sometimes, because the author hit the workforce and needed a clean resumee).
Sad: 2026 still needs being paranoid about contingencies.

If you're sad about not having a place to post your fics, check out this template I made that looks like AO3! It's an Astro template (which is a static site generator). Let me know if you have any question about how to use it.

I've been working on an AO3-style fanfic archive template in Astro that will allow you to upload and maintain fanfics in markdown. I quite like how it's turned out! check it out here: https://astro-fanfics-template.netlify.app/ Github: https://github.com/naivchan/astro-fanfics-template #WebDev

in case you wonder: sites in questions were
- Clampesque Forum
- AdultFanFiction.net
- LiveJournal (Exodus due to hostile new owner)
- Fanfiction.net (ads & TOS restrictions)
- lots of private home pages that talented ppl abandoned for hellscapes like Tumbler and Facebook, and whatever Social Fad Google spat out at that time...

Listened the whole day to the Computer Voice of Word to find mistakes in my two chapters...

Sad I'm back at word but this time I only use the word app and not anything else of MS...
Still Adropen Office is installed thanks to words inability to save in other document forms or revert them into workable text.
Andropen office still bugs out after a certain amount of changes and the dark mode is not working at all.
At least I am working on my stuff again...

And my AO3 account is online but so far I haven't done anything not sure what I can upload and what not so I will look into my older fanfictions and maybe share some of them but most likely not before Monday.

@soph_sol@federatedfandom.net

I learned recently that some people avoid blocking/muting users on because they can't stand the notification bar that is visible at the top of every page if you do

I am here to bring good news: this is fixable, using site skins! Even if site skins intimidate you, it's an easy copy-paste situation. All you need to do is create a site skin, paste 3 lines of text into the css field, save it, and apply it as your standard site skin.

Or if you use a custom skin (eg one of official ao3 skins, or other public skins) you can duplicate the skin, saving it as your own, and then edit it, and add the same 3 lines to the code along with all the other css that's already there. And then the fix will be implemented as part of your usual skin.

Here's what you need, these 3 lines. Including the third line with the closing curly bracket is important! and then you're good and will never see the notification banner about mutes/blocks again when you're logged in :)

display: none;

If you know the name of the fucking idiots who are running a attack against , do NOT name them.

They are after attention and other things and the best thing you can do to support our favorite site is not to speak their names.

volunteers will get this under control. There are mitigation techniques.

I am a huge shipper and write as well which I've come to post on as of late (due to my best pal encouraging me).

Now that I’m settling into the server, I should do a proper post!

I’m Selenay on pretty much every platform I’m on (except tumblr where I’m selenay936, grr). I’m a reader and writer and have been for long enough that my account turned 13 yesterday 😮

I’ve traveled through many fandoms over the last two decades and am currently deep in . My forever fandom is .

I post about fan stuff, , and life in general. Hello!
