My biggest tip for fanfic writers is this: if you get a character's mannerisms and speech pattern down, you can make them do pretty much whatever you want and it'll feel in character.

Logic: Characters, just like real people, are mallable. There is typically very little that's so truly, heinously out of character that you absolutely cannot make it work under any circumstance. In addition, most fans are also willing to accept characterization stretches if it makes the fic work. Yeah, we all know the villain and the hero wouldn't cuddle for warmth in canon. But if they did do that, how would they do it?

What counts is often not so much 'would the character do this?' and more 'if the character did do this, how would they do it?' If you get 'how' part right, your readers will probably be willing to buy the rest, because it will still feel like their favourite character. But if it doesn't feel like the character anymore, why are they even reading the fic?

Worry less about whether a character would do something, and more about how they'd sound while doing it.

I don't remember where I saw this piece of advice so I can't credit it, unfortunately

But it was along the lines of "instead of asking whether something is out of character, ask 'what would it take for this character to do this'"

Which I think fits really nicely with this advice of making the actual action itself also feel in character

My toxic trait is that if I find a product I like I want to keep using the same product forever. It's not even brand loyalty. It's called stop changing and discontinuing everything.

Post-episode mood

You know, Veronica was my friend too. And if she hadn't ratted me out then Lilly and I would have stayed together. And Lilly wouldn't have been alone that day. I would have been there. So yeah, I blame Veronica. And I blame myself for being stupid. And I blame Lilly for being a bitch that week.

What do you mean to do with me now?

[susandsnell]

like there’s a chasm between not spoonfeeding your audience things and leaving the actual work of writing well up to them. You know?

[susandsnell]

there’s writing subtext for the audience to catch onto and then there’s coasting on the belief they’ll do your homework for you
