There really aren't any that many, simply because in
the US, there's a law that says that you can't take
personally identifying information from kids under 13
- in other words, they can't be registered users of
your site, which means that you can't accept fics from
them. So I'd recommend that a 9 year old should not
poke around FictionAlley, but if you want
recommendations of individual stories, you could
certainly ask in our Help! I'm Looking For... section
here:

Jenna's site has a lot of young users, but not much
fanfic as of yet:

To be honest, I think that it's best to just ask for
recommendations for individual stories, rather than
play around on a site.

They say its a sign of mental health to hold apparently contradictory ideas in your mind. The world of late has been a particularly exotic stew of horror and beauty. There are killers, there are saints. The trick is to find the right spot on the spectrum between abject despair and total obliviousness. And then carry on...
