The mechanic
The original author writes the main branch. Their voice, their universe, their call on what's official.
Any reader can fork from any chapter. You own everything you write from your divergence point onward.
Submit a merge request. If the canon author accepts, your contribution becomes part of the official storyline.
No platform politics on top of fandoms. The contributor agreement is open-source-style: you own your words, forks are encouraged, attribution travels with every chapter.
No Marvel, no Naruto, no copyright minefields. Stories on Forklore are written by people like you — which is exactly what makes them safe to remix.
Every contribution is recorded with timestamps and weights. When a story goes audiobook, film, or series, the credits and payouts are already calculable.
