Hate to break it to you, mate (Lightsaber Guy), but about 70% of the fanfiction on this site was, most likely, submitted by the original creators themselves. Nowadays, it's hard to get a good fanbase behind a story (If not due to the sheer numbers of them, and the fact that people would rather read a crappily made clopfic then something with actual effort put into it), so, the author's natural reaction (sometimes, anyways) is to post the story here. The only stories that wouldn't be posted by the original author are those that have gotten extremely popular (I.E Past Sins, Fallout Equestria). Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if I had to submit my own story here, as well. (Won't until it's finished, don't worry)
