Summary
This is a flaming dumpster filled with CSS and HTML experiments. It's not instructional, but I post the code and my own explanations for both our sakes. Feel free to steal the code or ask me questions- I don't know what I'm doing. :)
(Pics are mine though)
Chapter 5 is probably what you're looking for ;)
I'm not going to say I take requests, but I'm always looking for inspiration.
It seems I've broken Ao3 yet again. I can no longer add more code to my work skin so we're moving on to part two!

Formatting Example: Paragraphs, Linebreaks, and Jank by orphan_account

Summary
This isn't a fic, just an example of how AO3 handles formatting paragraphs. It's a bit jank, and different word processing programs don't work the same when pasting in.

Summary
Originalmente creada para uso y placer de la comunidad Dreamling con Ñ, y subida para servicio de utilidad pública, esta es una guía/tutorial muy muy básica de algunas de las cosas cool que se puede hacer en AO3 con la añejeza que es el HTML.
En general, siempre hay muy pocos recursos en español para los fandoms. Ojalá esta breve cosa inspirada por The Sandman > Dreamling > nuestra bonito Discord hispanohablante sea de utilidad para todes :3 Estaré actualizando y puliendo!

Grammar, Spelling, Formatting, and Other Such Difficulties When Writing Fanfiction by Anonymous
Fandoms: No Fandom
29 Dec 2024
Tags
Summary
Hello dear reader! This work is not a fic, but rather intended as a helpful guide to whomever may benefit.
As self published amateur writers with no professional editors (and often none at all!), it’s no surprise to anyone that fanfiction is often prone to spelling and grammar mistakes. I’ve seen them, you’ve seen them, we’ve all seen them in our journeys across the pages of AO3, Fanfic.net, LiveJournal, or the scrap paper in the bottom of your bag.
Dear reader, the author does not wish to shame or reprimand anyone who’s made these mistakes, why, the author themselves has made them many a time! Instead view this as a helping hand for when you require it. Sometimes all we need is a cheat sheet for us to refer back to.
Which is what this work aims to be! A cheat sheet, a guide, a helping hand covering a variety of things author (and friends!) have noticed when reading fanfic. Use this as a handy dandy resource to refer back to in times of need.
Good luck, and happy writing!
