lils | 13 comments title: we all have a hunger (tell me what you need)
Author: papenathy
publisher: archive of our own
publication date: 03.01.2026
description: “Looks like I bit you.” Will tilts his head to get a better look. All Mike can do is stare at him. His fluffy hair at the front, clumped pieces at the back where he’d slid his fingers in a mere few minutes before. His pretty green eyes that look hazel or even brown in this light, the dark circles he gets when he drinks framing them like intricate paintings. A satisfied, bloody smile. Mike isn’t satisfied. He swallows thickly, choking down the words 'don’t you want more?' Or: Will dresses as a vampire for a college halloween party, but Mike thinks his costume isn’t bloody enough. Will lets him fix it. Mike goes into a crisis.

technically speaking, the book is considered a fanfiction, published on the site ‘archive of our own’, but, as it is growing popularity I was wondering if it could be added/ listed as a book on goodreads.
I noticed similar fanfictions/ archive of our own publications, such as ‘All the Young Dudes’ and ‘you took my heart (i was sleeping)’ have been added as books on goodreads, so I hope it won't be an issue

Eline | 14159 comments We need a webpage showing the book data to validate the info and if available we need it for the cover image. It should be non-bookseller site (Amazon & AbeBooks excepted), so from the publisher, library, Worldcat or another acceptable site: https://help.goodreads.com/s/article/..., if you have the book, we can use a scan/photo of your copy for the cover and the page with the publication information (you can upload a scan/photo of your own to the "more photos..." section of your profile (https://www.goodreads.com/photo/new) in the browser, not the app), then copy the link here and a librarian can add it. Make sure you state the source of the photo in the text and that your account settings are public (not private).

Bruno Rodrigues | 16480 comments Fanfic, in order to be added to GR, must be novel-length, and this story, with only 34k words, is not.

Closing without adding
