Drawerfic
From Fan History Wiki
Drawerfic is a term used in various fan-fiction communities. It generally refers to stories written entirely for the author's pleasure and not meant to be shared with a wider audience. The reasons for not sharing these stories can be many: the author may be exploring subject matter which is not considered acceptable within fandom or a specific fandom; the author may realize the story is badfic or crackfic that they do not wish to have associated with their name; the author may have no desire to share their stories with anyone at all and only writes for his or her own pleasure, or to share with a very small circle of trusted friends.
