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.

Made a Tropes page for a short Fix Fic, an entirely dialogue-driven Simpsons drabble, called ''Home Rule Resolutions", it can be read here

An Adaptational Alternate Ending to the 2015 Simpsons: Tapped Out event Rock, Paper, Sister addressing and patching up Bart Simpson and Laura Power's estranged friendship as they apparently fell out in the official expanded media. I try to play down and shift away from the obvious reason why this happened as I found it a bit gross, creepy and out-of-character for Bart, and instead the ending tries to pin the blame squarely on Laura's mother for holding a grudge too long.

I don't want to be mean but you need to work on your grammar and spelling. Maybe it's a stylistic choice to not capitalize names like Gotham or Christian, but I found that too distracting to finish the chapter. And your description alone misspelled themselves and succumb.

Currently working on a fanfiction called "75 Years: A Hunger Games History". The framing device is two decades after the events of Mockingjay, curator Mercedes Vonheli receives a box, containing notes and footage of various Hunger Games, which leads to her creating a history book about Panem in the Hunger Games Era. There's a Parallel fan fic called "Different Perspectives" which is basically about each Hunger Games from the perspectives of another person; chapter 6 of "Different Perspectives" made me cry while writing it as it revolves around a District 12 Tribute in the Sixth Games and how everything went downhill for her the moment her boyfriend was Reaped in the Fourth Games. The Fourth Hunger Games is the setting of another fan fiction, "Beyond The Pale", and said boyfriend is a major character. In fact, "Beyond The Pale" has it's roots in a plot point in the 2018 draft of "The Vonheli Chronicles" when the Female Morphling reminiscents over her Mentor, and how her cousin died in the Fourth Hunger Games. The first draft also featured an early Victor named Edgar, whose grandson is a Tribute; Edgar is the subject of an One-Shot, "Guilt" which deals with his guilt for being the first Victor as well as the guilt of killing Rocky and condemning the District 2 boy's sister to her fate. Another One-Shot, "The Sketchbook", centres on the Female Morphling and her art of events in the Games she Mentored.

Made a recent update to my fanfic, The Silver Raven with Chapter 20: Phantoms from the Past.

Fandoms: The Owl House and Devil May Cry

Description: After a drunken one-night stand, Lilith's world is thrown for a loop when she finds herself pregnant. Despite her initial reservations, she decides to raise the child with love and care, hoping to give him an unproblematic life. Of course, when you're the grandson of Sparda, trouble just has a tendency to find you no matter what. (Nero is Lilith's son AU)

As for this latest update, it's a Devil May Cry boss battle.

I wanted to share this fanfic: It's called Fire Emblem Awakening: Time and Fates Challenged. It's an Isekai fanfic of sorts, and it might not be too different from others, but I am trying to work on the other stories and get the chapters out but it'll be a while until I finish it. I have it on three different sites so I thought of adding the links to it, hope no one minds. Constructive criticism please and thank you. Wattpad Fanfiction.Net AO3

Hi folks, I saw that it was standard practice to post here before a fan-fic could be mentioned/linked to on a page; there's a lot of fantastic writing from the authors above!

I wrote a parody for the branching-narrative/humour/visual-novel horror game "Slay the Princess" called "Slay the Narrator". Background: In the game, an omnipresent narrator manipulates the player to fight the cosmic entity known as The Princess, claiming she will end the world otherwise. In this fiction (set after the game's ending), roles are swapped.

They've bought him back after the game's events with conditions attached (partly because they miss him and partly to give him a bit of laser-guided karma). They've given him a temporary body for the vessels (now armed with meta-knowledge) to meet (and mess with, in the process) face-to-face.

I've endeavored to keep it SFW and aligned with the game's characters and events, even using several open-source fonts and chapter-style graphics.

A huge thanks to the editors at TV-tropes community for helping me find (and allowing me to contribute) quotes, to help stay aligned with the source material (I've credited the community on the page)

Here's the link:

https://archiveofourown.org/series/3086208

Consists of 75 Years:A Hunger Games History, Guilt, The Sketchbook, Different Perspectives and Beyond The Pale. 75 Years and Different Perspectives will be my main focus once Beyond The Pale is done, until I reach Chapter 68 of 75 Years as that will be when I post the first part of the Vonheli Chronicles, centred on three brothers from District 6 in the last decade of the Games.
