We can’t bring AO3 back online, but we CAN give you something else you’ve been waiting (im)patiently for…
The App Store gods have finally smiled on us 🙌
The Ellipsus iOS mobile app is now available for download on iPhone and iPad!

Adding that while I don't mind people sharing PDF and EPUB files of my stories while AO3 is down, this? This is not okay. Not at all. Not in the fucking slightest.
Burn them to the ground
🤬
I’m genuinely tweaking rn
Fanfic authors, please be aware there is a website 👉 ao3.life that is scraping fics from Ao3 and turning them into Ai audiobooks and selling them for profit
They have an option to have your fics taken down but from what I’m seeing you have to provide personal info to “prove” the fanfics are yours to begin with (giving, phishing scam) and they claim they pay the authors, which is both untrue and ILLEGAL
Nearly all my fanfics are on here I’m genuinely shaking I’m so pissed like what the FUCK is wrong with people 😭😭😭
I find it interesting how my personal favourite stories that I’ve written aren’t the ones included in everyone’s drives they’re sharing. Maybe I’m looking at these stories in the wrong way. Maybe I missed something in the ones people love more than I do. Who knows. Just found it rather interesting really 😂
November means the monthly word count gets reset to 0. I had a total of two days with 0 words written in October. Monthly total came in at....47,646 words 💪

Remember to set your clocks back tonight from standard depression to seasonal depression.
Went outside on my last break. Was out by the street for 15 minutes and did not see one single trick-or-treater out in the neighbourhood. What is happening to the world? Halloween night should be filled with the sounds of children out hustling for candy
This time tomorrow it’s going to be dark by 5:30pm. Goodbye after 6 sunsets until March. I’ll miss you 😘
Had a customer ask me where my halloween spirit is then proceeded to tell me that letting my horns show is not my halloween costume. Thanks dude 😂
I see some people talking about deleting their fan fiction when AO3 comes back online. You're not comfortable with the fact people have been downloading them and sharing them with others who clearly loved them enough to want to save them?
Okay, cool, that's your prerogative. Me? I've always written for the fandom, for the fans. Read my stories! Download them, share them, maybe even find me on socials and let me know if you enjoyed it if you so wish. All I ask is you do not repost them as your own, as they do not belong to anyone else in that way.
The point is, they might be stories written by me, but they're not my characters and I didn't just write them for me, I wrote them for the fandom to enjoy. It boggles my mind that people are all "when AO3 is back I'm deleting everything"
Okay. You do you, boo. Your fandom won't miss people like you who are clearly only in it for engagement. I personally want my stories to live forever! Some I don't even have the original copies of anymore (RIP laptop of 2012-2019) so if people have downloaded them and are sharing them now, that makes my heart happy. They live on, as I wanted them to, one way or another 🫶
I have 5 of my most recent stories on Drive in EPUB format. Are they perfect? No, but they're readable at least!

I have given up on my clip in devil horns. I did find my devil horn headband however so I’m wearing that to work today.
Happy Halloween! 🎃
If anyone would like my four most recent stories as an EPUB or PDF file I will be more than happy to send it your way. I’m currently at work for another handful of hours but I won’t mind sending off the files via DM here or email if you DM me

Earlier today, we detected evidence of a security incident on #AO3. We are still in the early stages of investigating. No AO3 data has been deleted. All your works, bookmarks, kudos, etc., are safe. Learn more at otwstatus.org/incidents/g12j…
We estimate that service restoration for #AO3 will take around 2 weeks but it could be up to 4 weeks. We are hopeful that we will be able to bring the site back up in a degraded state sooner. Refer to our status page for updates: otwstatus.org/

#AO3 maintenance is in progress. We expect it to take at least 12 hours, but it may take longer. We will provide updates as necessary. Refer to our status page for updates: otwstatus.org/incidents/g12j…
