Category:Fanfiction

The term fanfiction refers to fictional stories written by fans that make use of material provided by a media text.

Fan fiction in the Supernatural fandom falls into two broad categories - those stories largely about the characters in the show and Real Person Fiction wherein the stories focus on the actors.

The major repository for Supernatural fanfiction is on Livejournal Communities and fanfiction.net which contains over 12,000 fics about Supernatural. There a few fansites set up as archives, but these are very small.

There are a wide variety of fanfic communities on Livejournal, which range from the general to those that focus on specific interests, pairings or kinks.

The spnnewsletter links to fics across communities. A database of these links, nearly 30,000 stories in December 2009, has been compiled at the Supernatural Fic Link Archive on del.icio.us.

Another major repository of fic links, over 13,000, is in the memories at the community Supernatural_fic.

People wishing to find a particular story, or type of story can post a query at spn_storyfinders.

Rec communities provide recommendations for fan fic.
