The Writer’s Guide to Fanfiction by Ayama123

Chapter notes: You may notice that the title contains the word “guide” within itself; this is because this is a guide and not an actual typical fanfiction story. Basically the following is my views of the different fanfictions out there, preferably concentrating on anime fanfiction. Well, enjoy!
Section 1: Starting Out

Have you ever watched a movie or cartoon and suddenly have an idea to create a sequel or incorporate yourself into the main plot, well, this usually happens with me and that’s where I first learned about fanfiction. Ever since I was little, these thoughts and initiative would circle in my mind like vultures circling their next meal. I began to write stories and sent it to my friend, who of course, gave me compliments on each chapter. But I failed to notice that my writing wasn’t actually the best. Now, to prevent this from happening you need to reread and re-reread your story at least 14 times. The key to fanfiction is in the editing, it gets quite annoying to find grammar mistakes on a perfectly good story, so remember that grammar is actually useful in your life. I know it’s hard to believe but it sets a good foundation. In fact, I think I’ll probably have to edit this guide.

Now when you’re a newbie, you may find out that things may not have gone you wanted it to go. No reviews, no ratings and no acknowledgment. Now I have to agree, when I started, I nearly cried to see that no one really noticed my work just because on the title it says: 4 reviews…1 chapter…etc. Of course you want feedback and recognition, but you just need to wait a while, after a couple days, just possibly, more and more people may find your story interesting and favorite it. You just need to keep on trying.
Remember it’s the satisfaction of a job well done that should make you happy not the statistics.
And if it’s the statistics that make you feel giddy then post your story in multiple sites, someone is bound to come across it and completely fall in love with it.

Remind yourself that it’s your strive of getting your ideas out their in the world, your drive of showing that you can go beyond your limits, that is what makes a great writer.
