Capeside Fanfic-Café

Your source for Dawson's Creek fanfiction!

Welcome to the new Dawson's Creek fanfic archive!

After all these years, I just didn't wanna live without a fanfic archive for one of my all-time favorite TV shows anymore. I just couldn't believe that almost ALL my bookmarks were leading to dead places. Where are you guys? Don't you love Dawson's Creek anymore?

So I decided to create a new home – a place where we can rediscover old favorites, keep the stories alive, and write new ones that continue the magic of Capeside. Whether you're here to share your own fics, revisit beloved characters, or simply bask in nostalgia, you're more than welcome.

Spread the love, share your fanfics, receive feedback from other fans, and be a part of a brand-new community! Let's bring Dawson, Joey, Pacey, Jen, and all their stories back to life – together. ♥

| Featured Story

Body. Heart. Mind. Soul. by Kilby

| Due to Gretchen's fear of intimacy, her mind tells her not to get close to Dawson. Her heart wants something completely different, because she wants to be with him aside from her fear of being hurt. Dawson is different from every other man she's known.

I'll remember you by Maja

  The Road Most Travelled by LECwrite

| This begins where season 5 ended - replacement of season 6 because no one thought Pacey the stockbroker was a good idea and 'that Eddie Guy' was an idiot so...neither exists. First FanFic ever, first story ever published.

  • James van der Beek dies after long battle with cancer

    written by Nadia @ 12-02-26 - 10:00 am

    It is with profoundly heavy hearts that we bid farewell to beloved series favourite James van der Beek. After a long, courageous, and exhausting battle with cancer, he passed away yesterday, surrounded by his loved ones.

    James was not only a remarkable actor whose talent and presence touched generations of viewers, but also a devoted husband and a loving father. He leaves behind his wife and six wonderful children, who were always at the very center of his life and the greatest source of his joy.

    His passing leaves a deep and painful void — within his family, among his friends, and in the hearts of fans around the world. May he rest in peace.

    I extend my deepest condolences to his family and wish them comfort, unity, and strength in the difficult days and weeks ahead.


    Mit zutiefst schwerem Herzen nehmen wir Abschied von unserem geschätzten Serienliebling James van der Beek. Nach einem langen, mutigen und kräftezehrenden Kampf gegen den Krebs ist er gestern im Kreise seiner Liebsten von uns gegangen.

    James war nicht nur ein außergewöhnlicher Schauspieler, der mit seinem Talent und seiner Ausstrahlung Generationen von Zuschauerinnen und Zuschauern berührte, sondern auch ein liebevoller Ehemann und hingebungsvoller Vater. Er hinterlässt seine Ehefrau und sechs wundervolle Kinder, die stets im Mittelpunkt seines Lebens standen und denen seine größte Liebe galt.

    Sein Verlust hinterlässt eine schmerzliche Lücke – in seiner Familie, bei seinen Freunden und in den Herzen seiner Fans auf der ganzen Welt. Möge er in Frieden ruhen.

    Seiner Familie spreche ich mein tiefstes Mitgefühl aus und wünsche ihr in dieser schweren Zeit Trost, Zusammenhalt und die Kraft, die kommenden Tage und Wochen zu überstehen.



  • Capeside Diaries Archive Has Moved

    written by Nadia @ 23-07-25 - 05:00 pm

    Liebe Fans und Fanfic-Autor:innen,

    unser Dawson's Creek Fanfiction-Archiv ist umgezogen – und erstrahlt nun auf einer neuen technischen Grundlage!

    Nach vielen Jahren mit dem veralteten eFiction-Skript haben wir den Schritt gewagt und sind auf das moderne, aktiv weiterentwickelte myFiction umgestiegen. Das bringt nicht nur mehr Sicherheit und bessere Bedienbarkeit mit sich, sondern auch viele neue Möglichkeiten für Leser:innen und Autor:innen.

    Ihr findet unser Archiv ab sofort unter dieser neuen Adresse: https://capeside.fanfic-cafe.de

    Im Zuge des Umzugs widmen wir uns auch einem Herzensprojekt:

    Wir möchten ältere Dawson’s Creek Fanfictions retten, die aus inzwischen nicht mehr erreichbaren Archiven stammen – solche, die bestenfalls noch über die Wayback Machine auffindbar sind. Falls ihr solche Geschichten kennt oder selbst geschrieben habt, meldet euch gerne oder ladet sie direkt bei uns hoch. Jede gerettete Fanfic ist ein kleiner Schatz, den wir bewahren möchten.

    Egal ob langjährige Fans oder neue Stimmen im Fandom seid – dieses Archiv lebt durch euch!

    Teilt eure Geschichten, stöbert in Erinnerungen und helft mit, dieses besondere Kapitel Fankultur am Leben zu halten.

    Viel Freude beim Lesen und Schreiben
    Nadia


    Dear fans and fanfic writers,

    Our Dawson's Creek Fanfiction Archive has officially moved and is now running on a brand-new platform!

    After many years with the outdated eFiction script, we’ve made the switch to the modern and actively maintained myFiction system. This upgrade brings improved performance, better usability, and fresh features for both readers and writers.

    You can now find our archive here: https://capeside.fanfic-cafe.de

    As part of this transition, we’re also taking on a mission close to our hearts:

    We're working to preserve Dawson’s Creek fanfics from archives that are no longer online or only accessible through the Wayback Machine. If you have stories like these—whether you wrote them or just happen to have copies—please consider sharing them with us. Every rescued fic is a piece of fandom history worth saving.

    Whether you’re a longtime fan or brand new to the fandom - this archive thrives because of you!

    Share your stories, rediscover old favorites, and help us keep this special fandom space alive.

    Happy reading and writing
    Nadia
