Fan(fic) Service on Sidechat | Hey! I’m thinking on writing a book/fanfic for a while and I wanted some advice. I wasn’t sure if I could write a book non related to any fandom and still post it on Ao3? Also if there’s really limits on how long it’d have to be to keep readers engaged 🙋

My rule of thumb when posting to Ao3 is that the work can be as short or as long as you want so long as the full story is being told. Now personally my outlining and writing style typically leads to each chapter being about 1k words, and I just outline/write one chapter at a time whenever inspiration strikes
