Want to do my first fan fiction, anxious if people think it's bad.

I have never been a great illustrator. I have always considered if writing was a skill I can utilize. I have been told by artists I have really imaginative ideas and can do good. I know that my grammar is not perfect, I would describe my mental process as a narrative imagination. I am always plotting out the beginning,middle and climax, then I decide how a character gets developed.

 

I don't want to rush a fim fiction. I see them go up after a new episode finished airing. I admire the creative impulse, but I really value a quality work over something rushed out. The fandom is also critical of art in a deconstructive way in my opinion.

 

I want to write fim fictions that are for everyone. Nothing too colorful, but not grim dark nonsense that doesn't belong in MLP in my opinion. Adventure as a genre is my preferred choice, although I am interested in writing just simple slice of life stories.

 

I am just asking for useful advice on how to entertain, but also not compromising what I want.

Hey, I'm the same way. I started writing my first fim fiction in the middle of my junior year of high school. I'm a college freshman right now, so of course I've done a lot more. In fact, I've actually completed a series of nine fan fictions with the last one being in two parts poking fun at the "last story of the series being in two parts" craze. I'm working on my second series, but I've come to a creative block on it with college and stuff. I've already posted my first fim fiction of the series here on mlpforums.com. You say Adventure is a preferred genre for you, go ahead and read it yourself. My fan fiction is Adventure with a lot of action and a little bit of "spice". Just get some ideas off of it if you can.
