About Fanfiction

Fan fiction is unauthorised amateur derivative fiction, written by fans of existing media works. It is an instance of both a web framework-era social phenomenon and a type of creative work, and is known by names including fanfic and fic.
Fanfiction platforms let readers publish and discuss amateur stories based on existing works. When the service has problems, the impact is usually felt where it matters most: uploading chapters, posting comments, or loading your reading feed. This page tracks reported issues in real time, so you can see whether others are affected before you start troubleshooting. Check back here for the latest status.
Fanfiction, often shortened to fanfic or fic, is fiction written by fans using characters or settings from existing books, films, and series. The platforms hosting it typically combine a publishing system, a reader feed, profiles, and comment threads. Any one of these pieces can fail on its own. Common trouble spots include chapter uploads that stall, comment sections that do not refresh, login loops, and slow feed loading during busy hours. Server connection errors also appear from time to time, especially after updates. Before reporting a problem, try a few quick checks on your side. Make sure your app or browser is up to date. Clear the cache or try a private browsing window. Confirm your internet connection is stable, and see whether a draft saves locally if the upload fails. If login fails, reset your password once before assuming a service outage. Most issues clear up on their own once the platform recovers.

Questions

Is Fanfiction down right now?

According to reports on this page, Fanfiction looks fine for most people. Isolated failures still happen — report yours if you are stuck.

When was the last mass outage?

The last mass outage ran from Oct 20, 2026 3:25 AM to Oct 20, 2026 3:20 AM (5 minutes).

Why won't my chapter upload even though the site loads?

A stalling upload usually points to file size limits, a dropped connection, or a temporary problem with the posting service. Check your connection first, then try again in a few minutes. If the site is otherwise working, the issue is likely on the publishing side and should resolve without action from you.

I can't log in to my account. Is my account gone?

Login problems are usually temporary and do not mean your account was removed. Try a password reset, then sign in again. If the reset email never arrives or login keeps failing across devices, the account system itself may be having issues. Wait a short while and try once more before contacting support.
