QUOTE (Sanae @ Today at 12:22 PM)
Okay, my two cents about fanfictions:

If there's something that I hate more than bad grammar, a weak plot or horribly slow updates, is when someone starts several stories at the same time and then never finishes them. Ever.

This really gets on my nerves nearly as much as people who completely ignore the personalities of the different characters, for instance, I recently read a fanfiction where, people get ready for this: Ryosuke Takahashi GIGGLES!!

Enough said, methinks.

Thanks for your critism. smile.gif

Dave isn't all that far off. Your ability to write well is dependent upon your level of effort. It's not age. If you're over age 12, you should at least be able to write well. You're a teenager--suck it up, punk.

And if you can't write well--LEARN. The internet may be full of crap, but there are whole entire manuals of style online and freely available. Better yet, if you don't trust the internet, go to a library--or ask your English teacher!

Better to filter out the crap offline than have it seep into fanfiction online.

I'd also suggest trying to find someone willing to be a sort of editor for you... I remember in high school when I was doing some creative writing a friend of mine I met via a fanfiction board I used to visit giving me pointers on what I could do to improve my writing.

Yes, I agree with Nomake Wan, if you make little errors like not capitalizing your i's or something that, bothers readers a little, but if you type leik tihs it buggs teh carp uot of peepol.

Consider you guys lucky that I'm a member of an online writing guild. Head to this webpage.

The Phoenix Souls Guild
http://bzfanfictionstudio.spreebb.com/

This guild can provide you with editing services, depending on how free the members are. You can join the guild, but there are certain requirements needed. If you should apply to be a member of the guild (You can be a normal member if you don't want to be part of the guild.) then it's up to guild members like me to access your performance. And yes, I go by the name outlaw-2/sargesagara in that forum. Hope this helps.

It wasn't criticism, dark_hero_zero, it was merely a very subjective opinion of mine based on the fact that I don't think many people can focus on more than one story contemporaneously and do a decent job out of all of them.

But maybe it's just me because I am one of the people who are unable to write more than one story at the same time.

Having said that, I'm still learning and my works, even the ones that are finished, are always 'in progress' because I tend to go back to them to see if there is something that can be improved and/or corrected (which, funnily enough, there always seem to be...)

Like I always say, we all learn till the day we die, or at least we should, otherwise we're wasting perfectly good braincells.

Here, my other two cents...and that makes four.

Bye for now, Sanae.

Just a suggestion - maybe we can feature some fan fiction recs (bearing in mind that we have to follow the rules set by our Beloved Admins so anything of a more adult-oriented nature shouldn't be included)? Would it be okay if I rec fan fiction not necessarily found on these forums but would feature links to these places, as long as I'm not linking anything remotely hentai?

I've been trying to wade through fanfiction.net and I'm just about to start here. In fact, I was one of the people who first asked about fan fiction. Glad to see it's finally caught on! biggrin.gif

Just to add my two cents to the grammar discussion - I have to say good grammar is THE foundation of good writing. I would not rec any fic that's almost unintelligble to read because of bad grammar and wrong spelling. Minor typographical errors are understandable (no one's perfect) but we fan fiction writers owe it to our readers to proofread our fics, even get them beta-read by friends, to make sure we do it right.

Writing is both a craft and an art. Like drifting, we have to work at it to be better, neh?

I once read this fic in another fandom where the author wrote:

"She wrapped her arms around his waste..."

Sweet god. Um. That's kinda disgusting, not unless you mean "She wrapped her arms around his WAIST."

Even worse was something I saw in the Initial D section lately of ff.net. It went something like this:

"Takumi put on his blouse."

Cringe. He's a GUY. He wears a SHIRT, not a blouse. Not unless Takumi is crossdressing and it was pretty clear in the fic that he wasn't. Sigh.

Hm. Now I'm gonna read through the fics here and see if I can turn up any gems.

Just thought I'd repeat something to those who read these fics.

If you enjoy reading a fic, let the author know.

Any fic, any fic at all. Leave your comments there. Be it praise, support, suggestions or constructive critiscism.

You don't have to go "ZOMFG UR FIC IZ TEh ROXX0RZ ITS BEST D4MN THING ON EARTH!". You just leave behind your comments.
