I heard that in 5e, players will have a chance to share their results and stories, and this could shape future events in the novels/D&D (please correct me if I am wrong and have misunderstood).
I believe that WotC was only referring to the current (4e) organized play events occurring in game stores (like the War of Everlasting Darkness).
fwiw: I feel it would be an excellent paradigm for 5e to include this option with purchased adventures, but I don't see that happening.
However, Living Forgotten Realms has always recorded results and used them to shape Living Forgotten Realms.

Thinking about it, with RPGA stuff made non-canon, there is a question of whether they'd actually get exclusive input or not. Old thinking on my part there maybe... it would be nice if there was a system for anyone who wished it to have input, but that cynic in me is having a hard time believing that WotC would ever do something like that. TSR... yeah, I could probably swallow that one, but for some reason I just can't see WotC, and by extension Hasbro being okay with that. Hope I'm wrong about that actually.

Living Forgotten Realms results affected only Living Forgotten Realms. They did not affect canon Forgotten Realms.

Dunno, seemed to affect canon to me back during the days of 2e/AD&D, not so much post-3e though.

There's always fanfiction as well.
I was reading on one of the other posts about getting more 4ED stories before 5th takes over. Fanfiction might be a good idea and possibly have some of the idea's be used as a kind of back story to the upcoming novels/adventures etc.
