We don't pay fanfic writers for the stories they give us, but we can show our appreciation by sending them feedback. It's important to let authors know we value their efforts!
Fanfic database project. We're still working on the database project, which will eventually let you zero in on just the stories you're looking for by searching on keywords and themes. In the meantime, check out the raw data. (*Updated June 28 to reflect all stories in the archive uploaded prior to June 22. The random story generator is also updated.)

Reformatting archive stories. Do you want to get rid of line breaks in archive stories? Do you print off stories to read but wish the short line lengths didn't waste so much paper? Do you spend lots of time reformatting stories to read or print in your word processor? There's a trio of new options to help. Our formatting page lets you convert a story to and from archive format. LaraMoon has written a Windows utility that batch-converts a folder full of archive .txt files, removing line breaks. And Sara has prepared an illustrated tutorial to walk you through the formatting process in Microsoft Word.

AudioFic underway: Authors and Readers wanted! Authors, would you like your stories added to the pool of fanfics that may eventually be read as AudioFics? Readers, would you like to contribute by narrating a favorite story? We need your help. Writer Paul-Gabriel Wiener is coordinating the project and has posted details here. (Thanks, Paul!)

Listen up! :-) Writer Paul-Gabriel Wiener had an interesting idea. What would happen if you gave fanfic the audio book treatment? So awhile back he picked up a microphone and recorded himself reading one of his stories — and Lois & Clark audiofic was born. Check it out on the AudioFic page! Thanks, Paul, for sharing it and becoming the first voice of the archive. It's a great idea — and a great story! And audiofic is something we hope to offer more of in the future.
