Fanfiction
This section is mainly for those who have come by my website through my account on fanfiction.net. I will use this section for updates on my fics as well as for reccing fics.
For those who don't know what fanfiction is I will try my best to explain the concept! :)
Fanfiction is in its most basic form, fiction based on a work that has already been written. These fanfictions, or fanfics (and even just fics) for short are based on everything from Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice to the immensely popular Harry Potter series.
Some basic terms that may help you to understand fanfiction and some links to get you started can be found below:
Fanfiction terms:
A
A/A – Action/adventure, focuses on fight scenes
AH - the fanfic has an Alternate History that is different from canon
Alt – Alternate version
A/N: Author’s note
Angst – Heavy and sometimes depressing themes, with characters suffering emotionally (and sometimes physically)
AR – Alternate Reality
AT – Alternate Timeline
AU - the fanfic takes place in an Alternate Universe
B
Babyfic - Main characters adopt or raise children
Bad fic - Really bad fan fiction, often deliberately bad, and written to amuse
Beta Reader - a beta is someone who proofreads your story for you checking grammar, spelling, continuity, and etc. Gives feedback. They usually do this chapter by chapter for longer stories.
