here’s a post about writing tips from an excessively prolific fanfic writer
a question i’ve been asked is how do i manage to write so much in so little time, as for many people even putting down 500 words of a story can take a very long time
i don’t know if i’m the right person for giving writing tips but here are my answers to this (long post, sorry)
first there are two points that i should make clear:
1) i would not overestimate my productivity - if the plot is complex, i’m not that fast either. it took me a long time to put together ink and blood parts 1-3 which have a more complicated story. the other things i wrote were very simple in the plot or, like with the prequel, they followed the canon very closely so the plot was already done
2) even though it feels strange to say it, my real life job is professional writing. i don’t write fiction for my job, clearly, but even if it’s a different type of writing, the routine is always the same: elaborate a chunk of information, put it together in a way and order that makes sense, and sit there and write pages and pages under time pressure. this means that i’m used to produce coherent written pieces and to do it fast.
that said, i think my writing tips are the lamest ones i can give and you’ll hate me for this:
practice.
the fact that i’m fast at producing stuff is because as a consequence of my job i have been writing and doing this process of transforming information from my head to a page for years.
and even with that professional background, the quality of ink and blood 1 is not the same as that of ink and blood 3.
as you keep writing you can see how you dramatically improve from one piece to the next one, so just do it. you have an idea? write it down, even if it’s not for publishing it. i have a lot of old scraps of scenes i wrote down, some eventually made it into the published stories, some will stay there in the shadows of my files forever.
let that little seed grow on the page.
i think one point that blocks many people is that they feel like they don’t have a full plot with characters and worldbuilding in mind when they start writing.
but this is normal, it’s not like you wake up one morning and you have a full plot in your head that appeared overnight. for me, most of the things i wrote generated from one little seed, one little random scene that appeared once in my head while doing a random task and that had likely nothing to do with the big picture of the plot.
an example? ink and blood, a series of now like 9 fanfics and countless chapters, was generated by a random scene in chapter 4 of part 3 that i published last week.
if you have a random scene in your head, write it down. maybe it will stay a random scene and you’ll have practiced some writing, or maybe you will find yourself thinking how the characters ended up there and why, and what’s the background, what will they do next. and then one idea will pull another one and you may find yourself writing many chapters of a long project.
find a beta reader.
find someone who is willing to read your drafts.
agree on the boundaries of what “beta reading” means for you (spellcheck/language mistakes? just general impression of the story? more criticism on finding plot holes?). make clear from the beginning how much you are willing to give up of your original idea.
setting those boundaries is very important - years ago i had experiences with beta readers without agreeing on these things and i found myself hearing very harsh and frankly unnecessary feedback that just made me give up instead of trying to improve the piece. the original idea of ink and blood that i had many years ago was trashed down as painful to read and completely dismantled by the first two people who came in contact with it.
but finding someone who is even just there to talk about your story will help you improve and motivate you as well, if you set the boundaries right. and if you’re motivated, you’ll be faster as well.
read.
read as much as you can of the genre you want to write. this will help you both developing the language skills (especially if you don’t write in your first language) and developing a bit of critical thinking when it comes to character development, worldbuilding and plot, and on what you as a reader of that genre would like/not like to see on the page.
it’s not easy to have the headspace for reading someone else’s writing when you are in the zone of your own story, so you may have to do some hard stop breaks between one piece and the next one such that you can read something that is not yours. it can also help you recharge your brain a bit and unconsciously get new inspiration for your next piece.
so yeah i think that’s it. but if you have questions or remarks on these things feel free to use the ask button, asks are always open ✨

Dance with the dragon
A dark tale of princess and dragon A princess who left her ancestral home long ago for adventures has entered the lands of her kingdom, where darkness has reigned since the death of her parents. In the once white-stone castle, a dragon had cheekily set up a ball for all the local nobility. The princess considered it an open invitation. And it would take her just one dance to figure out how to get back what was priceless and rightfully hers.

I've been writing the fanfic, inspired by this music video and lyrics, since 2018, and finally… I hope you can read it with a translator, sorry, English is not my first language.

That Multi-crossover mess is back as I'm gonna attempt to make a story out of it. And yeah no versus dialouge posts on here cause I can't come up with any to save my life!
It will kinda be my take on an collection/shorts compilation with an overarching plot for now. I got an actual story chapter up now on Robin and the Teen Titans. I hope you check it out and continue supporting this messy idea of mine.
I think you'd like this story: "CYBER (Multi-Crossover)" by CosmicQueen10 on Wattpad https://www.wattpad.com/story/311703822?utm_source=android&utm_medium=com.tumblr&utm_content=story_info&wp_page=story_details_button&wp_uname=CosmicQueen10&wp_originator=LiHb13KQFJkqxTM2d28x7%2F2njx5w043UBFySksgnoz2ShEe0qZOh1jIGSmgmKMYFqZYuM4BCK8ZD%2BJNlkxHzLf1wgqWPCzSvtLy4B0F%2FuEzRvNJbYd6YiB%2BhmSRgkpLr

"A New Start In Heatherfield"
Our story starts in a rather rocky start, it was raining in Heatherfield City, there was traffic everywhere in the city, meanwhile in a dorm, there was a 18 year old girl there finished unpacking her stuff unto her room.
The girl has scarlet red hair with golden-red eyes. Her name is Willhelima Vandom but prefers to be called Will instead.
You see the reason that she moved here was to have a new start.
When she was still young, her father left her and her mother. When she reached her 3rd year of high school, she found out that she was able to read people's minds. The more she read her friends'(Namely Lara, Jenny, and Louise.) minds, the more she realized the fact that they didn't enjoy her company. Will returned home crushed by this rejection.
Her mother suggested that perhaps Fadden Hills held too many painful memories of the past for both of them, and it was time to find a new life in a new city.
At that moment her mother suggested that Heatherfield would probably be the best place for her (Will) to move to.(Yes, I got the information from the Wiki)
'Alright, just almost finished unpacking my stuff.'Will thought in her mind as she picked up a picture of a dark purple haired woman. Her name is Susan Vandom.
Flashback a few days ago
The scene revealed Will crying in her bed after a horrible day at school, she found out that her "friends" Lara, Jenny and Louise really hated her deep down and only put up with her because they felt sorry for her. This year, however, they decided that they no longer wanted to be Will's friends, so they avoided and ignored her.
"Why.. why does my life... have to be so difficult... " Will said to herself as she kept sobbing on her bed "First dad left mom, now my friends left me.. who's next.. my mom?! " Will yelled to herself as kept crying on the bed only to heard a knock on the door. "Sweety, is everything alright? " A soft but kind voice says behind the door, it was her mother, Susan.
"N-nothing mom! " Will says as she wipe off the tears from her eyes. "But you looked upset when you came back today, is everything alright? "Her mother, Will opened the door to her mom, looking absolutely like a mess at her mother"Want to talk about it?" Susan said noticed Will's crying face, she nodded.
She started telling her mom about everything that happened today only about finding out that Lara, Jenny, and Louise hated her, after telling her that, Susan sighed "Maybe, this place holds too many painful memories for you, maybe.. " Susan said and Will looked at her in confusion "Maybe it's time that you should moved away from here.. "Susan finished, Will widened her eyes in shock as she looked at her mother" What?! But what about you mom?!" Will said looking at Susan "I'll be fine on my own sweetie, maybe Heatherfield is the best choice to live there. " She said looking at her daughter who is still unsure about it.
Flashback ended
Back in the present, when Will put her mother's picture on her study desk, there was a knock on her door.
"Coming!" She said opening the door revealed a chinese girl with dark purple hair and brown eyes. Her name is Hay Lin. The dark purple haired girl's appearance kind of scared the red haired girl for a second
"Hello!! " Hay Lin said, Will screamed and slammed the door unto Hay Lin's face. A few seconds later she opened again to see the asian girl wiping her face with her hands. "Sorry.. I'm not used to this.. " Will said look apologeticly looking at Hay Lin who's still wiping her with her hands but still smiling at Will "Don't worry, I'm fine. By the way the name's Hay Lin, what's yours?" Hay Lin says looking at Will with a smile on her face.
"Will. Will Vandom."the red haired girl said a bit shyly. " Nice to meet you Will, here have a cookie." The asian girl said giving Will a fortune cookie "What's this?" The redhead said "It's a fortune cookie, we gave that to every new students this year." Hay Lin said with a smile"Since you are new here, I thought it would be a good idea to give it to you, well. See you tomorrow Will. Bye."Hay Lin said as she walks away with a smile on her face.
To Be Continue...
