11/21/2009 - Universe Classifications changed slightly
I received a request for Alternate Universe and Mirror Universe to be made separate classifications, and upon review, decided that was a good idea. I've done my best to reclassify stories that were obviously Mirror-related to the new Mirror Universe classification, while those previously listed as "AU or Mirror Universe" are now listed as "AU Alternate Universe." If you have a story, poem, or essay that uses the AU classification, would you please check to make sure I didn't miss yours, and if you have one that is Mirror Universe, would you please check to make sure I classified it correctly? Thanks!

11/19/2009 - Archive open for posting stories in other languages
You may have noticed that our first K/S story in French has been posted to the archive. We've also added the "Other Languages" category and classification for posting stories in languages other than English. At the moment, we can accept stories written in Spanish, French, German, Dutch, and Portuguese.

10/28/2009 - From the archivist: PLEASE READ
I've had a number of emails lately about some specific concerns regarding the posting of stories, content of stories, and warnings. Figured I'd post a clarification about these issues in the hopes that we will all be on the same page about how the archive works.

1. POSTING WORKS IN PROGRESS
I've posted this in a number of places on the site, but I'm repeating it here, because it seems people are still missing it. If you are posting a WIP, and it is not yet finished, please categorize it ONLY as Works In Progress. PLEASE DO NOT CATEGORIZE IT AS FICTION until it is finished.

This is for two reasons -- one, to make the new parts of WIPs easier to find for those following them, and two, so that those looking to read completed stories won't be surprised by a "To Be Continued." I debated whether or not to allow WIPs in the archive, and if the confusion keeps happening to the degree it has been, I'll have to reconsider.

Also, if you are posting a WIP, the new parts should be posted as chapters of the same story, not as new stories. Posting them as separate stories indicates each story stands alone, even if it is part of a series. Let me know if you need help figuring out how to post multi-chaptered WIPs or how to put stories in a series.

2. ABOUT STORY CONTENT AND WARNINGS
The policy of the archive in a nutshell is, if the Kirk/Spock (or Kirk-Spock) relationship is central to the story, it is welcome in the archive. The ratings and warnings exist to help authors find readers for their stories, and to help readers find the stories they want to read. Because I don't like being the fandom police, I leave the warnings up to the authors, and they are not mandatory.

HOWEVER, AUTHORS-- please take note that courtesy toward your readers never goes amiss, and many people feel that it's discourteous in the extreme to post stories with triggery or disturbing content without adequate warnings. Likewise, using the Genre, Story Type, and Character classifications as much as possible will benefit everyone in the long run. NOTE: To this end, I added the classifications for MPREG and Genderswap to the Story Type list. Please use them! And let me know if there are other classifications you think should be added.

READERS-- the policy of the archive about warnings is not going to change. If you have an issue with an author failing to warn adequately for content that disturbs you, or if you feel their description misled you about the story, please express that to the author directly, either by commenting on the story or contacting them privately using the contact form. I would urge you to refrain from flames and generally follow the guidelines expressed in the Terms of Service and FAQs, but it's my experience that a polite note expressing your views will go far.

If you're uncertain about the policies of the archive, check out the Terms of Service.

Thanks, guys. Now back to your regularly scheduled K/S!

Welcome to the Kirk/Spock Automated Archive! Here, you will find stories, poetry, and essays about Kirk and Spock. All works in the archive feature the Kirk and Spock relationship as a key element. (Please see the Help page for more details and specifics.) Please note: If you post work to the archive that does not meet this description, it will regretfully be deleted. Real Person Fiction (RPF) is not permitted in this archive. By using the site, you agree to the Terms of Service.

Please read the FAQs for more information about how to format your story for posting before you begin.

From Killa, your archivist:
A huge thank you to Robin Serrano at Slashcity for her tremendous help in getting this set up, and to Lyrastar and Catalenamara for assistance above and beyond the call. My hope is that this archive will remain a central resource for K/S and Kirk-Spock fiction online.

If, after reading the Help FAQs, you're still confused about how to use the archive, please e-mail me, and I will do my level best to help you. Please spread the word, and upload your work as soon as you can! Also, please let me know if you have any suggestions for making this a better archive.

A note about story ratings:
This site has three ratings for content:
All Audiences - appropriate for all ages
Mature Content - appropriate for those 13 and up
ADULT - appropriate for adults only.
These ratings are chosen by the authors.

A note about Warnings:
It is the policy of this archive to leave warnings in the hands of the authors. This means that the author may or may not choose to warn you about the content of their story. This includes warnings for such things as non-consensual sex, violence, rape, character death, infidelity, and other plot elements, so proceed with a mature sense of responsibility for your own sensitivities, please. However, authors may wish to note that many fans consider warning for these issues a matter of courtesy, and the more carefully you consider your warnings and story notes, the more likely you are to gain readers for your stories.

Wondering how to get started? Use the Categories page to choose which kind of text you're interested in, then sort all the items in that category by Universe, Author, Title, Keyword, Category, Genre, Warnings, Characters, or Ratings.
