make it up as you go and then read it and think about how to improve or punctuate it.

1. Perfect grammar.

 

2. Perfect punctuation.

 

3. Perfect spacing and paragraph length.

 

 

Those are the 3 main things I look for in a story. If it's difficult to read, why even bother reading it?

 

 

 

Also, if you wanna start out, then I suggest writing a Twilight Peach fanfiction, just for fun. It doesn't need to be serious, you just need to create the weirdest story as you'd like for, ya know, practice. For example, this one: http://www.fimfiction.net/story/153619/twilight-sparkle-and-the-peaches-of-harmony

Those are important, but not the first thing you should be worrying about when writing a fic since they can always be ironed out in editing. I'd say figure out character first, get their back-story before the events of the story take place and then think of a goal you want them to accomplish over the course of the story. Now how to get the hero to the goal varies depending of genre you pick. Also, don't get to bogged down in details in the beginning. Write a simple outline, a few sentence and then expand from there. I'd love to chat about this to since I'm also looking for advice on a fic I'm working on so send me a message if you'd like
