Tips on writing fanfics? I want to get back into it but I need some help with getting the feeling of it again! Can you provide me with tips and things I should know including on how to make a master list!
Ahhh I can try! I actually have a video on youtube on how to do a masterlist and how I personally do a "linebreaker"
Making a masterlist
Hyperlinking

As for writing tips I'm not sure I'm the best to help you in that department 😅😭 but I would say just write what you love and what you enjoy writing. Let others help you if their criticism is helpful, if it's hateful ignore them because they're not worth getting upset over xx

omg of course!! thank you so much for sending this ❤️ these are the things i always keep in mind when talking about writing generally. this is probably a lot 😅 anyway, here it goes...
find a place and time where you are comfortable to think and write.
try exposing yourself to new things. like a new song or new experiences. it may help you find some inspiration to write.
personally, i am usually inspired to write while watching movies and random interviews, listening to music, and observing events around me 🤣
don't overthink everything while writing. you'll end up exhausted before you can even finish whatever your writing. i think we tend to focus on details while writing that we research and research until... suddenly, we're out of energy to write.
just write freely. you can edit things out later.
speaking of that, don't be afraid to have mistakes. like in grammars or spellings. especially if you are writing in your second language. you're doing fine, don't worry :)
don't force yourself to write if you don't feel like it. you'll hate it. it can lead to burnout!
if you have an idea for a story, write it down on your notes app or any pad. it doesn't have to be a complete plot, a prompt would be fine. you can work on it later :)
write a story you would enjoy to read yourself. this is how i felt while writing the a-listers. it was always exciting and fun to write it because i know i'm writing something i've been wanting to read here in tumblr for the longest time. i cannot find anything like that so i decided to write it myself. that's how i started writing here too 💀
while writing, don't rely on how would your audience react. it would just create pressure in you if you always hoped to please them. and pressure can lead to— again, burnout 🫠
in conclusion, just write whatever is in your head. you'll learn along the way. it's a process so don't worry if it seems cringy at the beginning haha
anyway i feel honoured to be asked for writing tips hahaha i appreciate you for sending this! i hope this response helps (even tiny, teeny bit) ans i hope you find the energy to write again. good luck! 🤍🤞✨
