Find me on ao3

[jackles-hackles]

I know there’s still some issues with commenting on stories that are maybe older or not as popular but something that might make it easier is if you just use a GIF. If you don’t have the words to say anything, just find something that will help you get your meaning across even if it’s something as simple as an applause or a thumbs up. Literally comment anything. I’ve seen authors say that they’ll even accept emojis and emoticons. 

Just say something~ Here’s a quick little tutorial on how I comment with GIFs.

I usually use Tumblr web version. Hard press the picture and click copy. Then I go to ao3 and open a new work. When you go to the rich text side, you’ll see that there’s a little picture option. You paste there and save and the pic will come up then you go to the HTML side, copy that and paste it in the comment. 

Long press on the pic until the option to copy comes up. Don’t choose copy photo.

Then go to ao3 and choose a new work

Next

Voila

Next

Next

Done! It’s actually less tedious than what I make it seem.

I’m giving myself this year to finish these. I hate having unfinished work so these will either be deleted or completed.

And although I never did think of a better name for this I think I want to bring this lil bugaboo back to life.

I’ll probably rewatch the seasons to see if I can get that bug back.

Thank you supernatural fans for not grabbing this pseud before I had the chance

AO3 users, in your opinion, do you think a properly rated and properly tagged fanfic that portrays an explicit sexual encounter between a minor and an adult (both are fictional characters) deserves to be taken down from the platform by AO3?

Yes, AO3 should take it down

No, it shouldn’t be taken down, and AO3 is right for being anti censorship

I’m not on AO3

Voting ended onOct 29, 2025

*AO3 allows works that fall in this category on their platform (they are anti censorship, therefore any fanwork is allowed, including works that depict taboo subjects)

This poll was submitted to us and we simply posted it so people could vote and discuss their opinions on the matter. If you’d like for us to ask the internet a question for you, feel free to drop the poll of your choice in our inbox and we’ll post them anonymously (for more info, please check our pinned post).

I think if you have an issue with how AO3 works then you probably shouldn’t be on the platform. How you feel shouldn’t dictate how a website, especially an archive behaves. You have the ability to create your own platform to host your own work if you don’t want to engage with an archive that doesn’t engage in censorship. And if you’re a reader, guess what? You have the ability to not read anything that has something that you don’t agree with. 🫶🏾

fanfic writer starter pack

unhinged google searches that cause your fbi agent to have a meltdown

a folder on your laptop with too many wips to count that you swear you will work on soon

75% of the writing sessions consist of daydreaming about your blorbos while not writing a single word down

only finding typos after posting the chapter… but there never are any mistakes when you proofread it

suddenly forgetting how normal human beings speak… why does the dialogue always sound like a rat and an octopus trying to communicate?

(totally healthy) obsession with THE character

2 mortal enemies: the ao3 summary box and tags

sleep deprivation is maxed out

daily nighttime meditation that involves staring at the ceiling while thinking of new ways to forever haunt THE character

saying something like “i’m just going to write a silly little one shot” and then proceeding to drop the most soul-wrecking, heart-wrenching, so-beautiful-and-painful-it-should-get-published fanfic of all time

[jackles-hackles]

I’m saying this meanly because some of you stupid bitches just don’t get it:

STOP LINKING METHODS OF PAYMENT IN YOUR FIC!!!!!

Stop posting a snippet of what you have just to entice people to your patreon.

Stop asking for money even if it’s indirectly!!!!

If that’s what you want to do use twitter or any other platform.

What’s annoying is some of you probably don’t donate to ao3 at all but you’re putting the platform at risk for your writing. No one on this earth is good enough to put a platform like ao3 at risk*.

*not shitting on anyone in particular but truly no one on this planet has good enough writing or creative skills that I would look at it and think “this is worth risking ao3 existence”.

How do you think Claudia handles Lestat after seeing him with this top (top reads: I made your dad a bottom)

I’d rather give my profile to a true J.Ackles fan before passing it off to family. Like yeah that fan is gonna have to do some cleaning of the bookmarks but I know if you’re an SPN fan none of it will shock you too much.

Petition to make 2023 the year all fic writers put permission statements in their AO3 profiles?

Please note this is not me asking all writers to grant blanket permission for other creators to make any and all kinds of transformative works of their fics.

What I am asking is for a simple statement that will help fellow fanwork creators know your boundaries, because honestly, asking is scary! A permission statement can look like…

“I am not open to any transformative works of my fic at this time.” Great! Clear, concise, saves us the time and effort of asking, and the angst of awaiting a reply.

Or

“I am open to any transformative works, including art, podfics, translations, and written works inspired by my fics.” Yay!! This is great news. May the fandom gods bless you with many “related works” notification emails in your inbox.

Or

“I am generally okay with podfics, translations, etc, but please send me a quick message first” Totally! We get it. Maybe you’d rather some of your works stay untouched. Maybe you’d prefer that they’re archive-locked. Maybe you just want to know who you’re dealing with, or you don’t like surprises. Valid! At least we know you’re up for a convo, and will likely respond.

Or

“I am okay with_______ but not _______ of my works.” Yes! Again, clarity! It’s a beautiful thing.

If anyone has anything to add to this appeal, please feel free.

[jackles-hackles]

I finally did it & added this little statement to my profile. I encourage literally anyone to add some version of the statement whether it’s permission,permission with a direct ask, or just a straight up no.

You can do it!

[stuckinapril]

The trick is to do it without shame. Literally anything could be cool if you just did it shamelessly

[stuckinapril]

Not Necessarily what I was referring to

[jackles-hackles]

I think I’d love being a tag wrangler but I have OCD & my target fandom already hates me*

* I don’t think everyone hates me, but if 1/2/3 person(s) hate me then everybody else might as well, so that’s the fucked up thinking that’s going on here 

[jackles-hackles]

I hope this doesn’t make me hackable or something but is the user ID the same as the number of people who have signed up? Like that’s my ID because that’s the number person I was when I made an account?

I guess that makes a bit more sense with how I was able to get my username. And I think about changing it, but what would I change it to?

We claim to fem Jacob but haven’t put in the work.

Post: I don’t understand why none of us (especially y’all aka the better writers) haven’t written something just as obsessive & romantic about Louis.
