Summary: “On the east coast of the US, there is a small town called Anywhere, where some of our favorite fictional characters keep washing up on the beach, often injured, with no memory of where they came from and who they are, the only clues to their past identities being the clothes they washed up in, their own names, and the strange feelings and dreams they occasionally have. Soon enough, they settle into their new life, but the questions still remain: who were they? And why are they here?”

🍰👮‍♀️🧠 - for the fic writer ask!
I just now saw this in my inbox 😭
🍰: Name one of your fave comfort fics (doesn’t have to be your all time fave).
It has to be Cells At Work: Realisations by Corvus_Albus on AO3! That fic is so fluffy I could die and I’ve reread it at least five times at this point ❤️
👮: If one of your fics was going to get you arrested, which one and why?
Back in like 2013 I wrote this fic called “Autumn White and the Five Strange Wizards” where an 11-12 year old girl was in an implied relationship with an ancient timeless man in the body of an 11-12 year old boy, so…yeah. It was also not a very good fic, as the titular character was very much a Mary Sue and I made my Warrior Cats self-insert OC randomly appear in the fic for no reason.
If you want the displeasure of reading this fic, here is the link to when I cross posted it to AO3 a few years back, albeit edited for ease of reading and without the usage of ableist slurs, and here’s the original FFN link in its full unedited glory
🧠: What’s an idea you have that you can’t quite call a WIP yet?
I’ve been wanting to write another SPY x Family fic for a while, a longer one where Anya gets kidnapped by the scientists who experimented on her and Loid and Yor have to rescue her and they all find out their secret identities and it’s angsty and dramatic but also fluffy

The Zero Comment Challenge is a way for readers to find new stories and reach out to authors they want to encourage. 
Every fandom has stories that get lost in the shuffle. Maybe they were posted during a busy time and didn’t get much attention. Maybe the author didn’t tag as effectively as they could have to get their story in front of the audience it was intended for. Maybe the fandom is just really shy so they leave kudos instead of comments. 
The Zero Comment Challenge is meant to find those authors and give them some love. Go to the AO3 search and filter by comments, then look at the fics that don’t have any comments at all. Find one that looks interesting to you and let the author know what you thought. They get to meet a new reader and you get to find new fic. Everyone wins!

Write fanfic for yourself.
Publish fanfic for the rotation of 3-6 people who are devoted readers and will either go feral or leave you very nice words and yell with you about it.

I’ve decided all my Star Trek fics take place in the same universe FYI
So unless I say so, they’re all in the same universe

If any of my fics ever get a TVTropes page I genuinely hope it’s Town of Anywhere because this fic is wacky and I feel like people would have a field day looking for all the tropes and just reading about what tropes are in this fic
