Promote your fanfic

Go To

I can't see a thread like this on the first page so here I go.

I thought we could do with a thread for promoting your own fanfic. Probably the largest bane of fanfic writers is no one noticing it. It could because because you're an awful writer, to having a poor blurb and not knowing so, a bad title, a unusual or 'out there' topic that people don't search for etc.

So here I guess we can publicise our own fanfics. I also figure it would be a good idea if we stuck to the format - or something similar - used when recommending fanfics over on the wiki. Maybe we should also limit it to 1-3 per week/month or something so we don't have people spaming this topic with hundred of shitty fics?

The Venerable House of Le-Fay

  • Fandom: Harry Potter
  • Description: Athena Potter (Fem!Harry) enters Gringotts on her eleventh birthday and is given the chance to take an inheritance test leading to her being proclaimed the Lady Le-Fay. From here she delves into the murky waters of British Wizarding politics and does not like what she sees; creating the third side to the war.
  • Notes: Slytherin!Fem!HP/Slytherin!GW Femslash, MOB!Dumbledore, and some non-flanderization MW and RW bashing. I am trying my best to avoid clichés with these tropes and even ran Athena through several Mary Sue tests just in case which she passed.

If your account is brand new, the forum will not let you post external links. Wait a few days and hang out in the other threads and the wiki.

I don’t really have a fic to promote, but my AO3 has some The Mandalorian, Carmen Sandiego, and Ducktales 2017 fanfics that I’m pretty proud of.

It’s not about the desti-something, it’s about the whatever.

My Lady Lovely Locks adventure story is done! I wanted to make a story that had the feel of the show while introducing the Enchanted Island characters from the toyline, most prominently Maiden Goldenwaves and Maiden Mistycurls, who never appeared in the cartoon.

Thought I'd share my first fanfic. It's a crossover between Miraculous Ladybug and Syukusho Gakuen (Shrink High)

https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13690906/1/Miracles-of-Syukusho-Gakuen-Season-1

Description: After the events of Syukusho Gakuen The Legend of Hanpane Island, the world has advanced far faster than beyond the point of recognition and society has more less adapted to the co-existence of giants and titans. When a mysterious new threat appears, Chijinda You must rise up to the task and solve this mystery before things get out of hand.

I also have a sequel which I'm still working on.

https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13744631/1/Miracles-of-Syukusho-Gakuen-Season-2

Description: In order to prevent the Society from obtaining their wish, Chijinda You and Narue Oriku have gone off in search of the Miraculous

Just wanted to see what people here thought of my fanfics so far.

So I finally finished the first chapter of this thing that I was planning. I made a couple of posts about it a while back on other threads, so I'm wondering if anybody remembers and would like to give it a read.

Introducing The Dragon Curve.

An Animorphs/Jurassic Park Xover I've been working on. The name even references the book specifically, as in the fractal curves Ian Malcom draws in regards to predicting and simulating the chain of events that befell the park in the novel.

I've been hard at work on a Power Rangers fanediting project...a mini-season of Power Rangers Turbo that remixes several episodes into a new narrative (so this would count as fanfiction). The goal is to create an alternative viewing experience and create the illusion that the Turbo year was for all intents and purposes going to be the last season of the show, so what would that season potentially look like?

The project has enabled me to realize a grand ambition of mine...to provide fans with the Zeo/Turbo crossover we never got.

Episodes completed so far

1. Graduation Day Part One

2. Graduation Day Part Two

3. Graduation Day Part Three

4. A Drive To Win (Remixed)

5. Rangers to the Rescue

6. Red On Red (Zeo/Turbo team-up)

7. Clash of The Megazords (Remixed)

Here's a little "billboard ad" I made for the project

Technically this isn't me promoting MY fic, but I wondered if I would be allowed to post a recommendation for a fic based on a challenge I posted? I didn't write the fic myself and have had no input in how the author interpreted my challenge beyond confirming a couple of details (certain characters are dead, as an example), but could it still count as me recommending something I created as the author only wrote the fic based on my challenge?

Here is my fanfic I'm writing right now, named Liberi Fatalis: The Theriantrope Chronicles, a crossover between Ace Combat, Albedo: Erma Felna EDF and Katmandu. Besides being a crossover, it's also a Fix Fic, an Ultimate Universe and Fan Sequel, in the case of Albedo.

I have being working in this fic since 2016, and that's why the fic is so big, being right now having written about 23 chapters so far, through right I have uploaded only 14 on AO 3 so far, but I will upload the rest later.

Please give me your opinion about the fic, so I can manage to improve it as soon as I can.

PD: English is not my first language, so many parts of the fic are a bit weird right now, grammar-wise.

Due to Holiday season it seems like the perfect time to promote this one:

  • Title: A Christmas with Astolfo
  • Fandom Fate/Gran Order
  • Summary: An introverted girl with zero self-esteem feels, and is lonely not to mention she is having a horrible day. Worst of all its Christmas! By accident, Astolfo shows up to try cheer her up.

Loonatics Revamp by PurpleLuckyStar.

While self-explainatory, this is described as a Continuity Reboot and Fix Fic for the controversial show, Loonatics Unleashed. It basically describes in stunning detail the origins of are six intrepid heroes.

Personally, I'm in love with this story cause it provides things the old show never gave us. Depth in the character's personal lives and backstories, the struggle and angst of obtaining new powers they don't know how to control, the consequences of the meteor striking your home city.

Also some noteworthy differences from the actual canon:

  • The Loonatics are not descendants of the iconic Tunes, PLS sorta described it as a parallel universe.
  • Acmetropolis is not an entire planet, but a city in the USA of Earth.
  • The whole planet of Earth in this fic is a World of Funny Animals, unlike the series where humans were the majority.
  • The Loonatics have more baggage that gets put to the test.

More details about the fic can be found on the writer's Deviantart and Tumblr accounts.

Live to Tell - A Ready Player One Fan Fiction Story by CB2001

Fandom: Ready Player One by Ernest Cline

Description: A story of the final fight from Ready Player One (the novel), told by a user who was on the ground, starting from when he receives the call to arms.

Genre: Sci-Fi, Action, Drama

Rated: T for Teen: Includes violence and harsh language.

Notes: This is mostly a character piece, meaning the fight isn't the main reason for the story, and was written before the release of the RP1 film adaptation (which had the High Five on the ground for the fight), as it was written and published online back in 2017. This fanfic spoils the novel Ready Player One by Ernest Cline (it is highly recommended that you read the book first before you read this fan fic). Have gotten a few positive reviews for it (one even saying it's a great story to read right after reading the novel). I recently revised a couple of minor details at the ending of the story to tie into the sequel novel Ready Player Two (I wanted to make sure it stayed in continuity with both stories. Though I had written about user accounts being restored in the story original, I changed the amount of time it took to do so to fit with what's mentioned in the second book). The "second chapter" at the link above is a Writer's Commentary chapter, describing the development of the story and some references (this is an optional read if enjoy the story and the thought process behind it). I hope you find the story enjoyable, and feel free to leave a review (and I'm sorry if the story is long-winded or not to your liking if you don't enjoy it). cool

Voice of the Condor

  • Fandom: The Mysterious Cities of Gold with a new character based on Inca.
  • Official description: When Tao repairs the Golden Condor after another crash-landing, he also activates a slew of new functions never seen before, including the Condor's own AI.
  • Notes: Has its own page here, but is part of a larger series, the Cities of Living Gold.

I wrote this story to primarily expand on a lot of things I wanted to see the Golden Condor do in Mysterious Cities of Gold, like weaponry, backup power, and allowing the Condor to talk. Since the later seasons didn't go that route, I made it myself. The connection to Inca arose when I noticed how similar the player's starship in that game was to Muan vehicles, so that's largely what went into it.

i have a fanfic crossover between Sofia the first/winx club, the thing here is that i'm working on it, and i'm actually adding some things you wouldn't see in any of both shows:

the premise is simple: sofia results to be a fairy, who thanks to her aunt tilli gets a place at alfea, but the thing is that soons she's involved in a quest where she and the winx must gather 7 amulets (of which the amulet of avalor is part of the set) to face a future evil:

Is the proper place to shamelessly promote our own fics? Well, here it goes.

It's Superman! https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12515880/1/It-s-Superman

Fandoms: Superman/RWBY crossover

A pretty standard setup when it comes to a Superman crossover. Place a young Clark Kent in a different universe and see how things change. A story where we see Clark growing Superman in a world where there are many other people that have powers and these "gifts" are not all that unusual for people to have and he now has to walk the line between showing what he can do without revealing just how powerful he is. This story is focused more on character interactions rather than Superman just fixing everything and stomping all the villains.

Currently ongoing and updated fairly regularly.

Phineas and Ferb the Adventures of Beatrice Flynn the Robot Girl

Beatrice Flynn is like other girls... except that she's a highly advanced robot and super-heroine, and prone to anxiety and insecure that she isn't a fully flesh and blood Human being. Also, her father and creator is Phineas Flynn... so yeah, that's a lot on anyone's plate.

But with the help of her friends and her family. She'll manage against alien warlords, the pressures of growing up, and the horrors of a hostile and maddening universe.
