Bit of light hearted fun.....

Who indulges in fan fiction......I'm guilty and in particular the naughty sexy stuff

Hands up 🤣👋

@LadyShimura the chemistry was unreal. Endgame 7/C made me gag do you listen to the delta flyers pod with Robert Duncan McNeil (Tom Paris) and Garrett Wang (Kim) they are massive JC shippers!
I'm a big Trekkie I go to conventions and I'm active on trek social media lots of friends I've met and made

@LadyShimura Janeway and Chakotay

I knew it!

They are my secret pleasure on AO3.

I'm both a(n avid) reader and writer. Deeply into Bangel smutty stories, even joined specific Bangel fanfic FB groups. 😂

I’m deep in a Roy x Jamie from Ted Lasso hole at the moment. And I’m always all about the ice hockey RPF - so much quality in that fandom.

I used to be a fairly prolific writer in an embarrassing, niche fandom linked to my username. Not written for a couple of years though. I really need to find my mojo again.

Baguette2021 · 16/10/2023 19:17

Yes! Reader and writer (before I had the baby that is...) of Jaime x Brienne fanfic from Game of Thrones/ASOIAF. Lots of talent there!

AthenaWhite · 16/10/2023 19:10

Love a bit of fanfic. I'm a fan of Locane which is a bit niche.

Yes to Destiel ❤️

i believe it was said "get in the car" by dean to sam in one of the epoxides when sam suggested it to dean

@CornedBeef451

Sobsicles is a personal favourite, she has some really good canon divergent fics
NorthernSparrow is an amazing writer, her fic Winter's Tale will rip your heart out, especially if you're a Cas girl
CasLostWings has some good AU stuff, as does FollowYourEnergy
There's just so much SPN stuff on AO3, I think there's in excess of 100k stories now, Destiel alone

MintyCedric · 16/10/2023 18:21

I ‘came out’ in RL as a fan fiction writer and reader a few years ago.

I’m working on my own stuff now but still in touch with a few people in the community and read their stories when they post them on AO3.

I think it’s a shame that fan fic falls into the ‘dirty little secret’ category for the majority…there are some really talented, hard working writers out there.

00100001 · 16/10/2023 18:15

Live me a bit of slash fiction.

ShowOfHands · 16/10/2023 17:58

I read and write in a few fandoms. It's good fun.

10HailMarys · 16/10/2023 17:52

About 15 years ago I used to write it. I wrote a lot about a specific pair of fictional characters in a specific fandom. I gave it up though, because after a year or so I just started to find the whole ‘community’ of fans was a bit depressing and I was increasingly encountering people online who I would cross the street to avoid in real life. Some of them were really intense and obsessive over their favourite fics and fic writers.

I've been writing a Harry Potter fan fiction series for at least the last decade. Currently on my characters' fifth year.

DressingRoom · 16/10/2023 17:13

I was a Big Name Fan writer back in the early 2000s, in a now-defunct fandom.

RubyBoozeDay · 16/10/2023 17:11

Is Larry Stylinson stuff fanfiction? I found that very disturbing having been signposted to it on a thread about One Direction on here years ago, with fans writing and creating pornographic photoshops and even sending it to the men's families.

Fictional characters though, I can understand the fun in creating alternative scenarios.

RoseMartha · 16/10/2023 17:08

I write it. Not for a few years though but have some up on a well know site.

shufflestep · 16/10/2023 17:07

Secret fanfic writer and reader here! Again, no-one knows in real life.

Notmetoo · 16/10/2023 17:04

I read and write it, no one in real life knows though

Poppysmom22 · 16/10/2023 16:52

I love fan fiction Im not into the rude stuff though and sometimes I get an aversion to something if it's too far from the original characterisation I do love people killing the horrible characters off though of giving them really ghastly storylines

Wanttobekind · 16/10/2023 16:44

Some fab fanfic out there - but not adult stuff, I am still addicted to children’s books!

CornedBeef451 · 16/10/2023 16:25

@GregoryFluff and @ohsoso I have read a disturbing amount of Destiel Fanfiction!

Do you have a favourite fic or author?

I also read some Malec and Good Omens.

labradormumandproud · 16/10/2023 14:25

I ship two characters from Star Trek yes I'm a Trekkie and I bloody love it especially the smutty ones hahaha A03 and fan fiction.net

As a Trek fan myself, I'm curious over the characters.

MoChridhe · 16/10/2023 15:39

I love it. Some of it is better than the original.
