Please read our Terms of Service regarding age limits on our site.
Please note the following distinctions when choosing your subcategories.
A story can either be All Human, Alternate Universe, or Canon. It should not be a combination of any of these.
All Human obviously means the story will not contain any vampires or supernatural creatures.
Alternate Universe means your story will have vampires and super natural creatures but events will unfold differently from the original story.
Canon in the subcategory does not refer to pairings. It refers to a story following the events of the book. A Twilight retelling from another characters point of view that does not change any of the events would be considered canon.
Submission Rules
- All submissions must be accompanied by a complete disclaimer. If a suitable disclaimer is not included, the site administrators reserve the right to add a disclaimer. Repeat offenders may be subject to further action up to and including removal of stories and account.
Sample DisclaimerDisclaimer: All publicly recognizable characters, settings, etc. are the property of their respective owners. The original characters and plot are the property of the author. The author is in no way associated with the owners, creators, or producers of any media franchise. No copyright infringement is intended.
- Stories must be submitted to the proper category. Please choose first the appropriate Main Category and the proper Subcategory for your story. The submission form allows you to choose multiple categories for your story, and we worked very hard to add that functionality for you. So please do NOT add your story multiple times!
-
Please use good judgement with story names and summaries. Please refrain from NC-17 language and nudity in banners.
- "Please read", "Untitled", etc. are not acceptable titles or summaries.
- A number of authors have requested that fans refrain from writing fan fiction based on their work. Therefore submissions will not be accepted based on the works of Diana Gabaldon, P.N. Elrod, Raymond Feist, Terry Goodkind, Laurell K. Hamilton, Anne McCaffrey, Robin McKinley, Irene Radford, Anne Rice, and J.R. Ward. For a more complete list of authors who support and do not support fan fiction please follow this link http://fanlore.org/wiki/Professional_Author_Fanfic_Policies .
- Plagiarism will not be tolerated. If the work you are submitting is not yours it will be removed and you will be banned from the site.
- Actor/actress (including any celebrity or athlete) stories are not permitted...not even if they're visiting an alternate reality.
- Correct grammar and spelling are expected of all stories submitted to this site. The site administrators are not grammar Nazis. However, the site administrators reserve the right to request corrections in submissions with a multitude of grammar and/or spelling errors. If such a request is ignored, the story will be deleted.
- All stories must be rated correctly and have the appropriate warnings. All adult rated stories are expected to have warnings. After all, they wouldn't have that rating if there wasn't something to be warned about! The site administrators recognize that there is an audience for these stories, but please respect those who do not wish to read them by labeling them appropriately. We at TWCS do not condone any law breaking activities. We do permit people writing about them as long as it is written in a tasteful matter. We do reserve the right to remove stories at the discretion of the administration team.
- Stories with multiple chapters should be archived as such and NEVER as separate stories. Upload the first chapter of your story, then go to Manage Stories in your account to add additional chapters. If you have trouble with this, please contact the site administrator or ask a friend to help you.
- As much as possible, spoiler warnings are expected on all stories. For categories with serialized content, such as series of books or television series, spoilers are mandatory for the current season and/or most recent part. An appropriate spoiler warning to place in your summary would be: Spoilers for Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. DO NOT do anything like this: Spoilers for the one where Spock dies.
Submissions found to be in violation of these rules may be removed and the author's account suspended at the discretion of the site administrators and/or moderators. The site administrators reserve the right to modify these rules as needed.
