Thinking of writing a fan fiction that’s been on my mind for a while. I know some people dive right in and write in a very linear fashion, but I generally feel that I’m better at the overarching stuff and worse at maintaining character voice.
Idek if I’d post it anywhere, this is mostly to get a pile of ideas out of my head.
(I guess when I say “start writing”, I mean putting down sentences that would plausibly wind up as part of the prose, but it’s all writing really)
I started writing fanfiction about 2 (ish?) years ago. My writing process hasn’t really changed from my usual get an idea and vomit it onto paper. I do tend to do a refresher on my memory if I haven’t watch the show in a bit, or if I just want to be painfully accurate.
I find myself to be repetitive in certain bits, usually pronouns, but that’s neither here nor there.
I do have a tendency to get ideas for certain parts of the story which I’ll stick into my notes to be inserted whenever I need to.
I say go for it, if you need pointers or encouragement try duck.ai or similar. I tend to use it sometimes to motivate me, and give me a dopamine boost. It’s a bit of a guilty pleasure…
