Ciel reached to his left, pulling out an embellished hair comb from the gold plated chest of drawers next to his bedside. In a nearly half second, Elizabeth found the comb in her long golden hair, shining in the evening sunlight. As she reached to her ear, brushing aside the hair shyly Ciel brushed the side of her face with his hand whispering into her ear "Lizzy.. I-"

Just then the alarm rang and Ciel realized he had been up all night reading smut fanfiction. It was time to get Sebastian to make him his morning tea..

Fanfiction is written by a community of people, also known as Fandoms, who write they're own stories based off novels, Tv shows, anime, games etc. The length of fanfiction also depends on the writer, but most fall somewhere between 1000 and 23000 words.
Fanfiction has ratings and different genres, that can be found in tags. Ratings are usually rated from G to E on Archive of our own. On fanfiction.net, they can be rated by K's etc.
Some fanfictions can keep the original story setting but change the characters relationship.
Others are Au's, where they can create a whole new plot etc..

Most Shippers write fanfiction between their ships.
Keep in mind Fanfiction can be written by all ages, so fanfiction is different, some do not have good grammar etc.. be nice, they're just writing fanfiction for fun and to share what they like(Don't criticize them).
Most fanfictions are found online.
Keep in mind fanfiction haters, if you write your own stories based off something else, it is a fanfiction.

(Sidenote): Fanfiction does not have to be smut or lemon.
Mary loved writing and she really wanted the two characters to get together in the book she was reading, so she decided to write a fanfiction based off the book. In the story, she twisted things around so the twos characters ended up together. A lot of people in the fandom liked her fanfiction, even though the grammar was bad.

Fanfiction is fiction (Generally stories or poems) written by the fans. It is separated into genres, like alternate universe, angst, poetry, romance, smut, or fantasy, and is either a multi-chapter series or a one-shot. It is usually shared on sites for storywriting or blogs, like Fanfiction.net or Wattpad.

A fun pass time for anyone to partake in, fanfiction (often abbreviated into 'fanfic' or 'fic'). Various types of fanfiction include, but are not limited to…

Oneshot (A fanfic that is one chapter long)
Twoshot (A fanfic that is two chapters long)
•Threeshot (A fanfic that is three chapters long)
•Novel-length
•Short story
Drabble (one-hundred or near words in length)
Ficlet (shorter than a drabble, yet still relevant enough to be a story)

There are many more, but listing them all would take too long.

Many of them are written by illiterate idiots who don't bother to proofread or use a spell-check, and they often have many horrible stories. However, there are plenty of literate, believable, proofread fanfictions out there if you know where to look.

Almost any genre and scenario has been written at least once. And pairings are never-ending as well.

•Slash (MxM)
Femmeslash/Femslash (FxF)
•Gen (No relationship, or it's not a big part)
•Het (MxF)

Those are types of pairings. Fanfiction can be an amazing thing if you know how and where to look for it. (Hint: archiveofourown.org AO3 is a great place with a great community. I wouldn't recommend FanFiction.net simply because of the lack of acknowledgement for new writers)

Happy reading!
Person One: Man, that Death Note fanfiction I read last night was awesome!
Person Two: What was it called? I want to check it out.
