Chronicle X

Chronicle X was a popular X-Files website, now defunct, that offered a well-organized archive of recommended fanfic as well as an extensive collection of links to authors' pages, specialty archives, and current WIPs. It hosted Lost and Found, a message board for readers looking for a particular story or genre, and maintained a selection of essays and how-to guides geared towards new fanfic writers. The site was well known for its twice monthly Spotlight On interviews with fic writers, and it also had a monthly feature called Can We Talk? where Shari and Kris discussed a novel-length story.
The site was launched September 7, 1998 and after two years of faithful service was shut down on January 6, 2001. After the main archive closed, Chronicle X Lite, now closed itself, was created to host the vast collection of links and the message board for Lost and Found. At the same time, on a separate site, Fialka archived the forty-six extant author interviews, which are still available today.
