Due to the possibility of Ao3 being down for a long while, I’ve created a Google Drive containing all my downloaded fanfics. Theres not much there, but hopefully it’s enough. Enjoy and make sure to show the actual creators some love once Ao3 is back!

Hi Sally, sorry if you've already gotten a million asks or questions about this, but I was wondering about the possibility of having OpenDoors archive all the fics that are on Lunaescence. I know you weren't leading the relaunch, but I have no leads or methods of contacting Diamond April (though I know/think she goes by Dia now?) Any and all information is appreciated, even if it's just that you don't know what happened. Thanks! I hope you're having a good day.
Honestly, I handed complete control of Lunaescence over to the team. I'm not even sure I have access to anything anymore.
I know it shut down, (I only found out because I had the thought to post some of my fics) but my last contact with anyone involved was back in Feb 2021 right after the winter storms swept through Texas.
I have no problem with archiving or moving the archive to OpenDoors or AO3 or whatever works for everyone. I just don't have the means, resources, or time to dedicate to it anymore.

You should download fanfiction you enjoy. Not just saved to favorites or bookmarked. Download it to your device for offline reading and safekeeping.
With AO3 down, this is a good time to be thinking about fanfiction preservation. I know a DDoS attack won't impact the stories stored on AO3. But I still worry about what we would do if we actually did lose the archive.
I have an offline fanfiction archive of almost every fanfic I've read in the last ten years. I have saved copies of favorites going back 25 years. You should have copies of the stories you love.
AO3 has an easy button to download a copy of any story. It even allows you to chose your format. I chose to mostly keep my personal archive as epubs. Some other fanfic sites also have easy download buttons.
But not all. Fanfiction.net offers no way to save works for offline reading. For a while you could use third party tools to download a complete story from ff.net, but they patched they website to disallow those kinds of programs from working to prevent people from saving works from their site. There are a few work arounds, but they are all clunky things, like opening every chapter of a fic in a separate tab on your web browser then running an archiving programs to save and consolidate the work.
Sometimes stories are lost. But I've helped many people find copies of lost fanfiction by sending them copies from my own archive. And I've read works I thought were lost when others shared their copies with me.
You should have a copy of the fanfiction you enjoy. You should save the stories that you love, and share them with others if they disappear from the net.

Explore Old School Alan/Billy fandom through the Wayback Machine
Before Tumblr, before AO3, (slightly) before LiveJournal, there was a First Age of billyalan fandom!
Fanlistings, Geocities, individual websites, fanfiction lists and archives and more... See what came before us!
Fanlistings
Evolution: The Alan/Billy Fanlisting - opened on October 2nd, 2003 at evolve.amiss.org -- This is interactive, and one can click to see Home, billy/alan thesis statement, a gallery of photos (they don’t all load), videos, links to other fan sites, lists of members, etc.

I love the oft repeated phrase throughout these fansites:
“Didn’t see the slash? That’s like not noticing the dinosaurs!”
Old billyalan fandom, I love you. New billyalan fandom, I love you. Billyalan fandom, I love you.
Reminder that things saved to archive.org are liable to be lost if archive.org is ever lost, so please save things you want and backup accordingly.

Hey all, if any of you have a lot of saved fic from any fandom, I would like to save a copy of that to my personal archive. It's a ridiculous hobby that I picked up but it's interesting what fic people choose to save for themselves. So DM me and we'll discuss :D
Edit to add: If you donate fic, I will also give you access to my archive if you want it.

reblog if you’ve read fanfictions that are more professional, better written than some actual novels. I’m trying to see something

Another AO3 thing I’m curious about, how do yall decide if something is good enough to read? Usually I follow a rule of 1 kudos for every 10 hits. One because it’s easy math and two it’s yet to fail me. Thoughts? Do you just go for it and pray it’s good?

It's not cringe anymore (it SHOULDN'T be cringe anymore), just do it. You're doing something you enjoy, who cares what anybody else says! So spread the words my fellow internet brethren.
Spread the Word :)

can you believe that we have fanfiction. that we have websites dedicated to fanfiction. that there is a place that you can go and read tens, hundreds, thousands and thousands of pieces of writing that strangers have made. people who are not "writers". people who come home at the end of the day and have feelings and say, i am going to put that into words. i am going to share those words. short, long, sweet, sad, horny, funny, wonderful words. we are all just human and we all love to make and remake and share that with others. can you believe that.
#ao3#archive of our own#fanfiction#sometimes i can't even believe how much i myself have written. like i think i am not a writer. i am not doing enough. i do not write enough#and i look back and i have 34 (34!!) works on ao3 and reams of unpublished work on my computer and so long left to live. so i think#we will be okay.#writing
