Yes. If you try to publish the fiction, as in to make money, you will be sued.

Some authors also dislike fanfiction and will sue you if they find the fiction online.

Find out before you post anything on the internet just to be safe.

It is possible to be sued for writing fan fiction if it infringes on the original creator's copyright. If the fan fiction uses the original characters, settings, or plot without permission, it could be considered a violation of copyright law. It's best to seek permission or create original content to avoid any legal issues.

No. If you try to publish any fanfiction, you will be sued. The work belongs to the author totally --- you must have legal permission from the author and publisher before you can publish any fanfiction.
