Community Profile

Welcome To The Christian Fan Fiction Gathering!

The Christian Fan Fiction Gathering (christianfanfic) is a community for Christian fan fiction writers and readers who want to read and post fan fiction for their favorite television shows, cartoons, books, and movies, without having to worry about running into content that goes against their beliefs. And, even if you aren't a Christian, or even a writer, but are simply looking for some good stories, you are still welcome to post and comment. :)

The goal of this community is to demonstrate that great stories don't need bad language or suggestive content to be great stories. :) Not to say that every story here should have a happy ending, or be an easy, angst-free read. Stories with darker, more intense plots are welcome too.

The fics here also don't have to be about a character coming to know the Lord, or witnessing a miracle (though they are certainly welcome! :) ) they can just focus on the fandom and its characters without any direct references to the Lord or Christianity at all.

It is our belief we can glorify God by obeying His commands and standards when we write, so, as long as your story follows the content rules below, it's welcome. :)

Right now, all fandoms are accepted, as well as original works, poems, and testimonies.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact the mod.

PLEASE READ THE RULES AND GUIDELINES BEFORE POSTING. THANK YOU. :)

General Rules For Posting:

1. Please do not post introductions only. You are welcome to introduce yourself when you first post, (Hi, I'm new here, and my name is...) but you must include either a testimony or a fic with it. Otherwise, we might wind up with only intros and no fan fic.

2. Do not use profanity. This also applies to image and icon text.

3. Respect other's oppinions. If you disagree, be polite and considerate in your response.

4. All icons and posts MUST be G rated, meaning no inapropriate innuendos, or suggestive pictures.

5. Links must not lead to any adult or inapropriate material.

6. NO FLAMING. If you did not like what an author wrote, give CONSTRUCTIVE criticism, but be considerate of their feelings.

7. If you wish to submit ads for other LJ communities or websites, please clear it with the mod first.

Breaking any of the above rules will result in one warning, and a request to edit the post. If the post is not edited, then it will be deleted and you will be banned.

Rules For Posting Fan Fiction:

1. Do not submit fics rated higher than PG-13.

2. Do not use the Lord's name in vain.

3. Fics cannot include slash (female/female or male/male romantic pairings) of ANY KIND.

4. No suggestive content, descriptions, or humor.

5. Do not include profanity in your fic. If there is profanity in your fic, please edit it before posting it here.

6. Please do not write fics about the actors themselves (i.e. Jensen Ackles from Supernatural). Stories from the characters' perspecitves are fine, but please respect the actors' personal lives.

Tags:

WHEN ADDING TAGS TO YOUR ENTRY, PLEASE USE THE FOLLOWING SYSTEM. This will make the archive much easier to search through.

First list yourself as the author (ex: author: yournamegoeshere) then list the rating of your story (rating: g, rating: pg, or rating: pg-13.) Next list the fandom, (ex: fandom: dark angel) and then add the fandom name connected to the genre or genres your story is part of. (ex: genre: dark angel romance).

In the end, the tags should look something like this when your fic is posted:

author: yournamegoeshere, fandom: dark angel, genre: dark angel humor, genre: dark angel romance, rating: G

____________________________________

Notes:

1. The available genres are adventure, angst, humor, romance, and tragedy. Please link only those genres to the fandoms in your tags. Your fic itself may certainly include other genres, but these genres are the most basic and unfortunately we only have so much room.

2. If you are posting an introduction, testimony, poem, or original work please tag it as one. :)

3. If you are submitting a fic with a tag for a fandom or fandom genre that is not already listed, or if this is the first time you have submitted anything to christianfanfic, those tags will be added to your post by the mod after it is accepted.

4. Please make sure to include the tag prefix with a colon, (author: _______, genre: _______, or rating: _______) on each tag when you are submitting a story. :)

Formatting:

To help keep things more organized, please use this format when posting fan fiction:
