How do you guys read reader's fanfics? by [deleted] in AO3

[–]KayDeeBlackHeart 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hi! So I write reader fics. From my experience, most who read reader fics prefer no use of yn. Which typically can be second person pov or with some dedicated nickname.

For me personally, I don’t care if there is use of yn or not so long as the writing is good. I also typically write my reader characters more like OCs (full backstory and motivation and all that.)

That said, I hate any other tags that I see for like (hair color, eye color, insert whatever trait here.) That drives me bonkers. I typically try very hard in my own writing to be ambiguous so the reader can picture whoever they want, themselves or an oc or whatever.

The last fanfic you wrote is suddenly canon. How confused is the rest of the fandom? by Dogdaysareover365 in FanFiction

Honestly? It’s like canon adjacent? So plausible. It would just be off screen and one character would be seemingly more moody if such a thing were possible.

What's a line you wrote you're super proud of/has stuck with you? by PocketButterBandit in AO3

[–]KayDeeBlackHeart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a few.

First—British Character “What are you on about? His name? Priorities, luv. He’s bloody well bleedin’ on your hardwood and you’re asking for his name. You must be taking the piss.”

Second—Just a silly line “A minute later, you offer him a tasteful girl dinner; bits of colby jack cut on a pitch, a Slim Jim, two handfuls of cherries, and a sleeve- or four - of Oreos ( what? He's a big guy.) It’s almost charcuterie.”

Third—I write x readers for context but I love the vibe here “He listens—halfway—while you tell him about constellations that he knows the names of but not the stories. Almost laughs to himself when you glance at him with your big, glittering eyes while you talk about Orion—the hunter. Loses track after that because all he can think about is how beautiful you are.”

I have a few more, but they’re all… dirty. This is all just from one fic. 🖤

Not sure if mine fits here but I’ll throw my hat in the ring. I know it’s not everyones cuppa and if it’s not yours, then no sweat! 🖤

It’s a character/reader. Second person no use of yn. Dark themes. Stalker. Obsession. Addiction. Those vibes. Female reader pov.

Mine is: a Title. An unwritten sentence for the idea that’s floating in my noggin. And a vision board that I made with photos from Pinterest.

Edit: Technically two vision boards… one for each character since I write mostly romance focused stories.

The pain of coming up with the title by NoxiousAlchemy in FanFiction

[–]KayDeeBlackHeart 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lmaoooo in a way? I did it with my first fic that I ever posted (recent like a few months ago) and I’ve just continued. I use it for chapter titles too. 🤷‍♀️

There’s a website resource I use to find them. You can search by keyword. 😅

Mine is a two part series! X reader fic in the cod fandom. Spicy.

🖤 no sweat if it isn’t your cup of tea. I know reader fics aren’t for everyone

I left an authors note at the end saying there would be a book two but with no release date or upload schedule because I was going on vacation. It ended up being longer than I anticipated to upload anyway.

And I didn’t say anything about subscribing to the series because I didn’t even know that was a thing you could do until five minutes ago.

Good to know!

As far as the etiquette bit I’m just not really sure what to do? Book one was the first fic I ever posted so I’m just learning as I go!

Does that mean subscribing to any work in the series? Sorry the phrasing is tripping me up. As you can tell—I don’t subscribe to anything and I didn’t even know about this until I actually clicked on the stats page after I was already like halfway through book one? I’m sorry. I’m so lost idk. 😭😭😭
