Re: AO3 QQ

[(Anonymous)]

OP

To the two anons above me I apologize for giving the wrong impression; it is not the authors on the site writing for free that I do not get (that I get) it is the part where they upload their original fiction to AO3. Given how Facebook and Tumblr and Twitter all technically own whatever is posted there by users, and they keep that data forever, even if it is original content (I am strange and almost always read the terms of service and privacy policies before I decide if I want to agree to them--on Tumblr I did not), why would writers essentially put themselves at the same risk, even if they are not getting paid for it? Especially if they are not getting paid for it. It just seems risky to me, that someone, somewhere, might be able to make money FROM them and they would not make any money at all.

If AO3 does not work on that model, then I have gotten it very wrong from the outset, sorry!

AO3 is extremely open about the fact that they run on a completely user-owned and controlled platform. If you create something, it is yours and they are there to help you share it and nothing more.

The original works section is for people who have works that they'd like to share with others that are not considered fanfiction. It can be something they purely created themselves, or it can be an original work set in a metaverse that does have followership.

My spouse has original works published on their account. Some are completely original, and some are original works and characters in a setting developed by another writer and mutual acquaintance. The setting has a small but avid following on Deviant Art and other sites, but stories set in this setting are often explicit and so not allowed on DA. So they post them on A03. It doesn't have a unified enough world concept to be a fandom (every writer has their own characters, settings, and concepts, joined loosely by an umbrella of concepts and the idea that all of this happens in one particular world). Maybe someday it will be considered a misc fandom but right now it works better in Original.
