Summary
A failed novelist from our world with no knowledge of Naruto reincarnates into the body of a Kyuubi orphan. Atsuko is content to languish in mediocrity as a career genin.
Bored, she spends her spare time rewriting stories from her old world - only for a publisher to snatch them up. Atsuko becomes a best-selling author built on a throne of lies. Good thing there's no such thing as copyright law in a military dictatorship...?
In which Atsuko shamelessly rips off the Western Literary Canon, is frog-marched into Konoha’s Intelligence division to become a spy, and accidentally steals Jiraiya's thunder. Not necessarily in that order.

Summary
When Yusami finds out she's been dropped into the Naruto universe, she doesn't know if she should feel relieved or cheated to have missed out on all of the cool ninja stuff.
"Both" she decides as she looks down at her favorite customer and wonders how she can sneak extra veggies into his bag without him noticing, "Definitely both."
Or: a self-insert becomes a simple grocer in Konohagakure and decides that if no one else is going to adopt the baby protagonist, then it's free real estate.
Featuring: a civilian woman beating Danzou at his own game, Naruto finding the love he's always deserved, and a hefty amount of ANBU operatives wondering if the Uchiha are accepting volunteers for that little coup/revolution.

Summary
Standing in a T&I observation room three stories underground behind one-way glass with his arms crossed and feet spread hip-width apart, Kakashi watches Root operative, orphan, missing person of eight years, civilian born Haruno Sakura spit blood in Yamanaka Inoichi’s face, a small chunk of flesh stuck between her lateral incisor and cuspid as she snarls like an animal, and thinks:
She should have been on his team.
In which Sakura forgets, Sai pretends, and Kakashi can't tell if he's failing the mission.

Summary
In a twist of grand irony, the unassuming little girl who learned to weave her chakra into flowers and saplings would be the one to send the whole forest crashing down.
All would be uprooted, and all because of a single girl's discovery of a power that they'd never thought could be hers.
In the end, perhaps only the girl would be left standing tall. Perhaps she'd be cut down too. Perhaps she'd resolve to start a forest all her own.
Only time would tell.
Alternatively: Feeling weak and afraid after Wave, Sakura stumbles upon a way to use Mokuton. Without a bloodline. Without any gene mutations. Self-taught. Konoha is flipped on its head, and there are many, many questions to be asked in the face of a little girl doing the "impossible".

Summary
A girl who was supposed to die young survives to see adulthood, and thus the Third Shinobi World War rages onwards with the odds stacked against Konoha.
Sakura, on the other hand, is one of the many children placed in the Academy's new "Accelerated Program" under the reign of the Yondaime Hokage, who is a man that cannot possibly be human—and she grows up to be really fucking angry, waging her own war against Namikaze Minato.
✕
HOWEVER: Another being lingers in the fissures of space and time, armored, masked and unidentifiable; his inhumanity is endless, Sakura knows, and his dire plot of destruction is centered solely around her demise.
