Do you want to write YOUR own fanfic? Well you came to the right place. It'll only take 6 easy steps:

 

1.You need to brainstorm.

 

What will your character look like? What will he/she do? You also need a good plot. Keep things interesting by adding various elements like plot twists and interesting characters. This’ll keep your fanfic from getting boring. Nopony wants that. ;)

 

2. Make sure you have your facts straight.

 

If you aren't correct about something in your story, such as accidental plot holes, someone will notice it and call you out. But make sure to take any criticism you get. People are trying to help you!

 

3. Double check everything.

 

Check for spelling errors, plot holes, and the like.

Oh and if you triple check it will be 20% cooler

 

4. If you are unsure about something go to forums like this one! Or use Google.

 

5. Finish what you start and have fun with it.

 

:lol: Writing fanfic takes a lot of time, so don’t hurt yourself doing it. :lol:

 

6. Take your time

 

If you take your time and do your research it might turn out to be fantastic fanfic. Note that this isn’t always the case, and your first few might be horrible, but that’s ok! You’ll get better at it.

 

If you have any questions feel free to ask! :)

2.Make sure you have your facts straight.

If you arent correct about something in your story somone well notice it and call you out. Then you have to deal with trolls dun dunn duuunnn :o

 

So if someone corrects you for an error you did, they are automatically a troll?

You should get your facts straight on what a TROLL is.

Incorrect, to write a fanfic, you need google docs, and loads of hours to spent on working on it.

I think his post was just to troll...

 

No I just don't think he fully understands the depth of the subject matter he tried to invect wisdom into. A valiant effort but rather fruitless to try and reinvent the wheel.

 

He's not a troll, he's just new. Cut him some slack, Cupcake.

The Pony has spoken.

 

Now a word from the Unicorn.

 

Nope. Nice try I suppose but you should really spend more time on it. Plus I'm sure there's collectively plenty of threads around this place that give advice on writing.

I found this helpful, but this part, are you sure that's not suppose to have some sort of comma or something?

I understand that you're just trying to help and that's great but do it once you get older, when you at least know how to speak perfect English without any grammar mistakes okay?

 

For now just leave useful comments and get your facts right before talking, some people here like to criticize.

I found it a bit useful to me since I never actually got to make a fanfic (or at least finish one). ;)

Life is an adventure. An adventure of mistakes, accidents, and misunderstandings.

That's what makes life life.
