    Fan-Fiction could be consider a story told from voice and translated into text.
    I started writing fan-fictions at young age and have no idea they are called as such.
    The best way is to focus on the content first and then, our voice/prose will improve. Words are tools to describe what's going on.
    Writing is each one craft but plot is the MAJOR essence of fan-fictions.

    Fanfic writer here 🤚🏾 I've written visual fanfics (here on my RUclips channel) and am now writing on Wattpad. Sure wish I had this when I started 3 1/2 years ago. I would like to add if you haven't already join a community based on the book, movie, etc. It will help when promoting your fanfic.

    Okay okay I'm getting my notebook back out 😤 I have written quite a few pages but put it away for a while cuz I wasn't so secure in how I'd organize a dialogue heavy chapter. But hearing your tip to take note while rewatching source material on how characters speak actually made me feel confident in jumping back into it.

    I have few ideas that I'd love to write fanfic about but I'm literally afraid of messing it up or not finishing, having no motivation or something.I lately found writing really enjoyable for me so I'll do my best to start and finish what i wanted to write. For sure these tips will help. Btw do you have any videos about how to write dialogues? This is one of my biggest fears and I feel like this is the thing i usually do wrong. Thank you for the tips!

    • @patrick_nilan
      @patrick_nilan  2 месяца назад

      Dialogue is something I will surely be making a video on soon, I’m coming back to making tip videos after stepping back from it! Also don’t worry about messing it up. You can always fix it after you’ve written it!

    why would you just post on one platform over several - there are different audiences there?

    The main assumption of my fanfic is that I want to present the world of BNHA from the perspective of Poland, create historical events that could have happened before the main plot, and all this from the perspective of a child who, after finishing the 6th grade of primary school, moves with his family to Japan and begins connect his life with characters and events from the main plot

      Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH, but before we can get to anything regarding the Rat Republic, or even cover WW3, we must first start with the creation of the universe.
