Please understand that it’s impossible for my app to become official because AO3 wants to remove my app from the AppStore.

Take this as my formal notification that I do not consent to any of my works being included in this app. I do not consent to the creator of this app making money off of my hard work. Take this app down. It’s disgraceful to those of us who put our works up for free readership on sites like AO3.

Friendly reminder-

There is no official AO3 app on the appstore. I, and many other fic authors on AO3, have not given permission for our works to be posted on these apps.

Paid apps: remove the ability to access FREE content for FREE. Do not pay for fanfic. It is a freely given art form for legal reasons.

Free Apps with Ads: someone is making money from ads off of someone else's fanfic. We did not authorize this and feel insulted by the profit off of our hard work!

Apps Stealing Logos, Colors, and Anything off of AO3: are stealing from OTW and hurting them and their intellectual property.

Please please please- download PDFs to read! Use the AO3 site! Donate to AO3 instead of buying an unofficial app! Support authors directly by talking to them and asking how they wish to be supported!

Please: report unofficial apps for stealing!

We are undeserving of AO3 for all the hard work they put in- please don't reverse fandom progress like this! AO3 protects us- these apps will harm creators and OTW alike!

🚨ATTENTION🚨

All Writers Published on Ao3:

This app, "Fanfic Pocket Archive Library", is lifting all public content from Ao3 and making it available through a service they profit from.

Your work has been stolen and is being used to make money for a third party.

^above are the ways in which the app makes money off of Ao3 content. The developer is called Simple Soft Alliance. Here's the app's Terms and Conditions.

Any fanfiction that can be accessed without a password on Ao3 is already available in this app. Yours, mine, every fan creator's. Whether this is illegal I do not know, but it is certainly unethical and needs to be fought. Ao3 is a site of unparalleled integrity and shows the utmost respect to creators, so this content grab is an even bigger slap in the face for that reason.

🚨Please flag/report this app in your app store. 🚨

🚩Google Playstore link (go HERE to report directly)

🚩Apple Store link (download app, then go to report it here )

Feel free to contact Ao3 as well to alert them to this issue. Let's take em down, folks. In the meantime, you can put your Ao3 in private mode to prevent any more data theft.

Please reblog and tag your writer friends. Signal boost this.

All of my work is on here without my consent, wtf? This is not fucking okay???

Also any “tip” you give this person goes to him, not AO3, or even the authors. Please report.

Just checked. All of my works are on this stupid thing too. Just changed the privacy settings to all my fics. If any of my readers are affected by the change, please PM me

All my stories are here too...

So...maybe people will jump on me here but I think this is cool. It’s an app that makes it easier to read things on AO3. It doesn’t take credit for our stories and it’s super easy to leave comments and kudoes.

The app maker makes money and we get more readers, how is that bad?

I see your point @emmilynestill​ - I too, thought it was cool to reach more readers. I guess the problem is they took the works without asking and now they are making a profit through the app. But they do not claim the stories are theirs...definitely worth thinking about. Also will the original copyright holders come after the apps as they are making a profit?

My works are currently now only visible to registered members of AO3. It might make things easier to read on AO3 but as an author I didn’t consent to my works being available on third party applications, and I’m not happy about this third party application making any subscription money off of my works. 

Also, what about those of us who are in the process of removing works from AO3 to be able to turn this into original works for publishing? That’s the best point I’ve seen raised as it may have implications for further publications.

GUYS!!!! Your response to this so far has been so incredible. I was really worried about how people would take the subject matter on this one, especially as this prologue doesn’t give away too much of the actual plot, but your interest in this is really amazing. 

I’ve done probably more research for this fic than any of the others I’ve written, mostly because I’ve been writing this over the last three years and it’s pushed me to the brink so many times, but finally seeing that you guys are excited for it is so motivating!

Olicity Fic: walk me home (in the dead of night)

AKA - The five times that Oliver Queen walked Felicity Smoak home, and the one time he walked home without her.

“You really don’t have to do this,” Felicity insists for what feels like the thousandth time that evening.

“Felicity, it’s okay. Of course, I’m going to make sure you get home safely.”

Oliver really doesn’t mind. Her car is in the shop and it turns out she doesn’t live too far from the foundry. He’s not too thrilled that she lives in the Glades but she’s assured him that now that she knows what happens in her neighborhood that she’s not going to be renewing her lease and she’s going to start looking for a place in a safer area. But with Diggle on a rarely taken night off and Oliver’s motorcycle something that Felicity is firmly against taking, they’re walking back to her place.

“Still, it's late and I’m sure you’re exhausted from all the...vigilante-ing,” she said, wringing her glove covered hands in front of her.

Olicity Fic: searchlights (we can see in the dark)

Summary: In the space between their impromptu wedding and planning their reception, Felicity comes clean to Oliver about a phone call she’s made to a certain someone.

“I called my dad today.”

Oliver stopped when he heard Felicity’s quiet announcement.

They were alone in the apartment at the moment, and they weren’t used to the silence. Yes, it was peaceful. Yes, it was a lovely recovery from an intense weekend. But truthfully, they had gotten far too used to being a family of three. William’s addition to their relationship was a change they were still adjusting to, but having William spending a few hours out of the house had made it strikingly clear how far they had come in the last few months together.

So yes, it was peaceful. But someone was missing.

Olicity Fic: Zephyr - Chapter 5/?

Story Summary: “Zephyr” (zɛf ər), noun | A gentle, mild breeze. It does not disrupt, nor cause chaos, it merely brings a pleasant sensation on a warm summer day. 

Behind the vigilantism, they have to live. A look at our heroes as they go about the more normal moments of their lives.

Chapter 5/?: Prompt: Changing diapers

“I really don’t like this.”

‘This’ could be a number of things. There’s a lot in the house right now that Felicity doesn’t like. Oliver knows because he agrees with her. He doesn’t like the way that their laundry is piling up when it feels like they’re constantly doing laundry. He doesn’t like how they’re not just on first name terms with the delivery man from their local Chinese, but that they know his kid's names, and even what schools they go to. He doesn’t like how everything has turned upside down in their house, even though they felt so prepared for everything just a month ago.

But he’s certain that none of those things are what Felicity’s doing, based on how she’s scraping her hands down her face because really, this is about parenting, and Felicity really does love their son. “Changing diapers?” he asks, making an informed decision based on how he’s recently thrown a fourth (fifth? Sixth?) diaper into the trash.

“No, feeling like this,” Felicity corrects him helplessly.

Olicity Fic: Shatter - Chapter 4/9

Chapter 4: 

Louder, louder

And we'll run for our lives

I can't hardly speak

I understand

Why you can't raise your voice to say

The following morning dawned with less hope than the Queens would have liked. Beyond the walls of the hospital, the sun was shining on a new day, birds were singing, and other people were visiting relatives in the hospital for successful procedures and new births. For the Queen family that was not the case, as neither of their children had made any progress overnight - instead, they were continuing to deteriorate.

With no conclusive leads to proceed with yet, Oliver and Felicity clung to what little hope they could find, finding tiny miracles in the smallest of things - like how their son was no longer crying. They had told themselves that this was because he was feeling better, but they both knew that he was so exhausted and hoarse that he could barely find the energy to make a sound, let alone cry. His muscles ached from crying and vomiting, and not even his parents' arms could take the pain away.

No one would say it, but everyone was afraid that at any moment the poison would take hold indefinitely, taking both children to the same point of no return to which it had taken its previous victims.

READ THE REST HERE 

I’d really appreciate any reviews on this guys! Support for this fic is seriously dwindling and I’ve got this mostly complete now. Would a weekly posting of this bring back the love?
