Blanket Statement on Transformative Works of My Fics

I have different thoughts on different types of fanworks, so check the section for the fanwork you are interested in creating: 

Podfics, Translations, and Fanart:

I welcome podfics, translations, and fan art based off of my fanfic! If you create a podfic, translation, or fan art based on my fanfic, there’s no need to notify or credit me beyond using the “Inspired by” feature on AO3 or posting the link if you use another website. You can also tag me if you post it on Tumblr or Instagram. And please tell me regardless of where you post so I can look at it!

Recursive Works (eg Prequels/Sequels), Remixes, Fanbinding, and Other Transformative Works:

Please check in with me before creating recursive works, remixes, fan binding, or other transformative works based off my fanfics. The best way to reach me would be to send me a message/ask here on Tumblr or to comment on the fic in question.

This blanket permission statement / transformative works statement was created with the help of the Fanworks Permission Statement Builder. You can create your own custom statement here: https://www.inklewriter.com/stories/115743

I made a self-indulgent first fic for a fandom. Does that count?

In Sickness and In Health

Your Ivy Grows and Now I'm Covered in You

I decided to wait a week after I posted my last fic of the year before doing this. (Well last fic unless I manage to finish one last scene in the next few days between packing)

The AO3 stats page doesn't separate hits, kudos, etc by when they were made for each individual fic. So I left out Even In a Different Life from the most popular fic since most of it was posted last year.

Thank you to @spicedrobot for making the template!

Ao3 version that lets you open the 'director's cut' where I, the author, explain every detail in excruciating detail to you and what it is in reference to.

[awordwasthebeginning]

@bonsaibovine being absolutely correct in the tags

[dreamtigress]

Legit. Ask me anything you want to know about my fics.

One of the beautiful things about fandom is how vast the definition of fanwork is, and the auctions in the following categories are great examples of that reality.

OTHER FAN LABOR

Not only are there auctions that focus on beta services and translations, which you're probably familiar with, but there are also offerings like ficbindings, a full year of fic recs, AO3 CSS and HTML coding, a custom Magic: The Gathering decklist, and more! This is the time to make your fandom dreams come true, and these 15 auctions would love to help you out with that.

BETA SERVICES

Or maybe you heard about beta services but aren't quite sure what that means. It's a common question to have, especially for anyone new to fandom (and even for some of us who aren't!). Beta readers check a story before the writer posts it publicly. Betas are great for things like:

SPaG (spelling and grammar) and typo checks

Sentence flow and story/plot structure

Soundboarding/planning

Canon compliance

Characterization and dialogue

Fact-checking

Culture-picking

Sensitivity reading

Knowledge about specific topics or experiences (e.g., identities, lifestyles, professions, interests, and fields of study)

Cheer reading

Betas are worth their weight in gold, and if you weren't sure how to get one before, MTH is a great opportunity to get one now! Check out the 26 auctions offering beta services here.

TRANSLATION

Finally, let's talk about an elephant in the fandom room: our fandom as a whole is multilingual, but a lot of us…aren't. Thankfully, there are members who can help bridge the gap between different language-based fandoms. Maybe you'd like your work or one of your favorite fics by another writer translated into a different language, or you always wanted to read a fan comic in your native language. If so, make sure to check out these translation auctions!

DogsAreTheBest312

See DogsAreTheBest312’s existing works here.

Preferred contact methods: Tumblr: dogsarethebest312 Discord: DogsAreTheBest312

Preferred organizations: - Anything from the list of approved organizations

Will create works that contain: any AU, fluff, angst with a happy ending, missing scenes/hidden moments

Will not create works that contain: porn without plot, incest, adult/child relationships (based off canon ages - aging/deaging one of them still counts), blood/feces/urine kinks, non-con, fics where an OC is the main character (minor or recurring is ok), reader-insert

– Beta Service –

Auction ID: 1034

Will create works for the following relationships: Xu Shang-Chi-centric - MCU Bruce Banner & Clint Barton & Steve Rogers & Natasha Romanov & Tony Stark & Thor - MCU Steve Rogers & Tony Stark - MCU Doctor Strange fandom any gen - MCU Shuri & T'Challa - MCU Michelle Jones/Peter Parker - MCU Peter Parker & Tony Stark - MCU Shang-Chi fandom any gen - MCU Stephen Strange & Wong - MCU Xu Shang-Chi & Xu Wenwu - MCU

Work Description: Hello! I’m open to beta reading any fic up to 100k (or your estimate if the fic isn’t finished yet). This isn’t a hard rule since I know estimates can be wrong (it’s happened to me many times), but please try to keep it at a reasonable length if you go over. In terms of what I can offer as a beta reader: I can do SPAG and flow, typesetting, etc. I can also culture-pick for both American and Chinese-American lifestyles. I can sensitivity read for the following topics: general racism (but especially if it’s aimed at Asians), LBGTQ+ community, adoptees, single-parent households, interracial families, interracial families, interracial marriage. I have experience in medial research, specifically in joint replacements, biomechanics, and computer simulation/modeling. I don’t claim to be an expert per say (I’m still a student), but I can give a general idea of if something medical is realistic or not. My beta reading speed really depends on how busy I am IRL and the type of beta work. For example, just looking for SPAG would take me less time than also checking for pacing and if the characters are ooc. I estimate I could have a 100K work done in approximately 10 months.

Ratings: Gen, Teen, Mature, Explicit

Can pods bid on this auction? Yes - Podbids welcome!

I have two auctions up for Marvel Trumps Hate this year! If you’re interested, please consider bidding!

[dogsarethebest312]

I commissioned this piece from @circesteardrops, and they did an amazing job!!! Thank you so much!

I plan on using this to make a cover for There’s No Morning Glory. I’ll share that when it’s done!

[squirrelstone]

Maybe if people updated more we wouldn't turn to ai

You’re a pathetic, impatient loser. Fanfic writers owe you nothing, and their writing is their own, not yours to do with as you choose, you entitled brat.

[dogsarethebest312]

I’m a medical researcher who works with AI. It has no place in the arts. And even if it did, there’s no excuse for stealing data from non-consenting people.

But since you can’t seem to see the difference, let me explain: these people are training AI algorithms to profit using copyrighted material without permission.

We’re training ours using data we scanned ourselves (medical images) from consenting individuals with any PII removed. On top of that, we’re creating a model to take a 120+ hour process for a human do to imperfectly and have a computer do it in ~4 hours (ideally) perfectly.

And what will happen to that information? It’ll be used by doctors to save fucking lives.

So get off your moral high horse which is actually an ant and go write something. Maybe then you’ll see how much effort it actually takes and appreciate the work that fanfic authors give you FOR FREE

[violetasteracademic-deactivated]

Generative AI Can Fuck Itself

I am one of the AO3 authors (along with all of my friends) who had their work stolen and fed into a dataset to be sold to the highest bidder for training generative AI models.

I feel angry. I feel violated. I feel devastated. I cannot express enough that if you still do not understand the damage that generative AI art and writing has on our planet, our society, and our artists, I don't know what else there is to say. How do you convince a human being to care more about another humankinds ability to create than their personal need to consume?

Generative AI, when it comes to art, has one goal and one goal only. To steal from artists and reduce the dollar value of their work to zero. To create databases of stolen work that can produce work faster and cheaper than the centuries of human creation those databases are built on. If that isn't enough for you to put away Chatgpt, Midgard, ect ect (which, dear god, please let that be enough), please consider taking time to review MIT's research on the environmental impacts of AI here. The UNEP is also gathering data and has predicted that AI infrastructure may soon outpace the water consumption of entire countries like Denmark.

This is all in the name of degrading, devaluing, and erasing artists in a society that perpetually tries to convince us that our work is worth nothing, and that making a living off of our contributions to the world is some unattainable privilege over an inalienable right.

The theft of the work of fic writers is exceptionally insidious because we have no rights. We enter into a contract while writing fic- We do not own the rights to the work. Making money, asking for money, or exchanging any kind of commercial trade with our written fanfiction is highly illegal, completely immoral, and puts the ability to even write and share fanfiction at risk. And still, we write for the community. We pour our hearts out, give up thousands of hours, and passionately dedicate time that we know we will never and can never be paid for, all for the community, the pursuit of storytelling, and human connection.

We now live in a world where the artist creating their work are aware it is illegal for it to be sold, and contribute anyway, only for bots to come in and scrape it so it can be sold to teach AI databases how to reproduce our work.

At this time, I have locked my fics to allow them only to be read by registered users. It's not a perfect solution, but it appears to be the only thing I can do to make even a feeble attempt at protecting my work. I am devastated to do this, as I know many of my readers are guests. But right now it is between that or removing my work and not continuing to post at all. If you don't have an account, you can easily request one here. Please support the writers making these difficult decisions at this time. Many of us are coping with an extreme violation, while wanting to do everything we can to prevent the theft of our work in the future and make life harder for the robots, even if only a little.

Please support human work. Please don't give up on the fight for an artists right to exist and make a living. Please try to fight against the matrix of consumerism and bring humanity, empathy, and the time required to create back into the arts.

To anyone else who had their work stolen, I am so sorry and sending you lots of love. Please show your favorite AO3 authors a little extra support today.

[lunaatthezoo]

I too had all of my fics stolen in this sweep and I don't have anything to add besides what is already here.... It feels very bad

[dogsarethebest312]

I locked my fics a while ago but then unlocked them because I felt bad. I also wanted my then-subpar work to mess up the algorithm.

But now it’s happened again, and this time works that I care a lot more for were scrapped. I’m trying to figure out how to get a csv file from AO3 to file a DMCA to get them removed from the dataset.

This sucks. As someone who works with generative AI in an actually positive way (in the sciences. Not the arts) it double sucks.

So I’m locking my fics. I feel bad but I have to in order to keep others from profiting off something I provide for free.

Please use the link above to request an account! Or send me a message with your email and I’ll send an invite to you.

AO3 has been scraped, once again.

As of the time of this post, AO3 has been scraped by yet another shady individual looking to make a quick buck off the backs of hardworking hobby writers. This Reddit post here has all the details and the most current information. In short, if your fic URL ends in a number between 1 and 63,200,000 (inclusive), AND is not archive locked, your fic has been scraped and added to this database.

I have been trying to hold off on archive locking my fics for as long as possible, and I've managed to get by unscathed up to now. Unfortunately, my luck has run out and I am archive locking all of my current and future stories. I'm sorry to my lovelies who read and comment without an account; I love you all. But I have to do what is best for me and my work. Thank you for your understanding.

[dogsarethebest312]

As someone in the medical industry, I hesitate to completely dismiss the use of AI. There are ways to use it to enhance and better people’s lives.

However, the arts is no such place. AI should never be used as a substitute for the hard work of authors and artists. So unfortunately I too will be locking my fics. I hate to do this, but I don’t want my works being used to train AI.

If you don’t have an AO3 account, please reach out and I’ll send you an invitation. I still have all 7 of mine.

Summary:

Bruce, king of Gotham, has been pressured by those in his advisory council to find a wife and produce an heir. But as the council will soon learn, trying to force Bruce to do something will have the opposite effect of what you want.
