Welcome to Helio : Atlantis

This site is a spin-off archive from Heliopolis, in much the same way that Stargate - Atlantis is a spin-off from Stargate - SG1. Heliopolis is a huge, multi-author, Stargate fan fiction site. Like the original site, we do not host slash stories here, but we do welcome gen or adult stories, any genre or rating, other than slash. (See our FAQ and Submissions pages for more info.)

My name is Lyssa, and I am the webmistress of this site, opened 01 August 2004. I welcome your comments and suggestions. You can contact me at: webmistress@sg1-heliopolis.com

Helio News
Archive Updates in Progress
I am working on fixing up the archive, because it's that time of the year again and finals are almost over!!!!

I have new skins to put up. I found my old files for the original archive to replace some of the lost stories!!! I am also going through and updating the stories that have "0" word counts.

I am also deleting some stories that do not meet our terms of service. We do not allow works in progress, and it has been brought to my attention that some authors are posting "drafts" or a few sentences here or there to increase their view counts. This isn't acceptable. Any stories that can't stand alone (TBC, etc) that are reported will be deleted. This doesn't apply to series or even multi-chapter/story compilations where each chapter/story comes to a conclusion and can stand alone.

We also do not allow drabbles or stories below 400-500 words, unless multiple stories are posted in one chapter. 14 stories were removed from Helio: Atlantis and 7 from Helio2 today for violating this policy. 45 stories from the main archive are in danger of being deleted as soon as I finish the other updates.

I will be posted a new Rules and FAQ page for everyone to review, but if these policies can't be met, we'll go back to requiring new stories to be validated.

That being said, welcome to the new authors who have joined us recently, and for all of the great stories that have been posted recently.

Contest Winners

There were 12 stories written by 10 authors for the December 2007 Fic Contest. Of those, 4 were first place winners.

SG-1 Christmas: New Cultural Experiences by CamShaft & Christmas on Stand-by by Geonn
SG-1 Rewrite: New Beginnings by smileybug_gater
Atlantis: Fortune's Favor by Offworlder

All winners (in the US) will receive a pre-ordered copy of Stargate SG-1 - The Ark of Truth, if they wish. Prizes for those who live outside the US, or who do not wish to receive the movie will be announced. Also, because there were so few entries to the contest, the six remaining authors will be eligible to receive a smaller prize also to be announced. I will be contacting all eligible authors by e-mail to sort out your choices and shipping information.
