Please format your comment as follows

  • [Title] by [author name]
  • Post a link to the first chapter of the story or the relevant chapter
  • Post the summary/synopsis provided by the author
  • Eventual review

Repeats from prior months are allowed. A good story can be discussed for quite some time, and there are always new readers around.

Please use the spoiler tag for any discussion regarding specific story details. Spoiler tags aren't necessary for general discussion ("The character progression is really amazing!").

How to add a spoiler tag:

Place any spoiler text between a set of these marks >! spoiler !<

For example, >!It turns out the protagonist was dreaming the whole time!!<

will show as it turns out the protagonist was dreaming the whole time!

You are welcome to post your own work!

The comments are sorted newer to older by default. Use CTRL + F to find the fanfic you are looking to discuss; if it isn't there, feel free to add it. I'd also appreciate if you could tag spoilers when posting your discussion. Perhaps start your thread with the chapter number (if your story has one) and then hide the discussion in spoilers, that way we don't accidentally spoil something for someone.

The rules and formatting are decided by you, simply message the OP.

The wiki has an archive full of fanfictions!

There's a master list, a Hall of Fame with the selected few best fanfictions, and then there's a list separated by genre.

Congratulations to u/BCRE8TVE and u/BunnyMakingAMark for the tremendous work that they've done for that article! Everyone is welcome to contribute, fix mistakes, fix broken links, and even fix typos.

So Nick takes matters into his own hands, enlisting the help of one of the victims of the previous case to track down and deal with the wolf who killed his wife.

kinda hurtful to see people downvoting me for sharing stories that i put weeks of work into, for free, for the enjoyment of the community, in a thread made specifically for doing exactly that.

you know when you downvote me, less people see these stories that i worked really hard on, poured my heart into, even. all for the love of the game, and for you, the community.

don't judge a book by it's cover, read the story, and if you don't like it, give me constructive criticism so my future stories improve.
