How to put “wrote fan-fiction” on your résumé:

Leveraged an inventory of established fictional character and setting elements to generate a disruptive custom-curated narrative entertainment asset.

[xeno-lalia]

I worked in HR, handling applications and interviews, and if someone turned in that string of techno babble nonsense, I would have rejected them out of hand.

A resume doesn’t need to sound fancy or overly technical, it needs to tell us why we should hire you.

“Independent novelist/writer” is more than sufficient here. If you want to express the skills that fan fiction taught you, something like, “creative writing, editing, and publication,” will get you a lot further than… Whatever that just was.

A resume should be tailored to the position, if you can afford the time and energy for that. But if not, then just think about what writing got fandom taught you. How to respond to criticism, how to present a professional pubic face, how to correct punished mistakes, creative thinking, project planning, persuasion via emotional leverage, html formatting, office suite fluency.

There are a lot of actual, marketable skills that go into fan fiction.

15 year old me meeting 20 year old me

15 year old me: So, did you get into the school of your dreams? Do you have a boyfriend or girlfriend, I don’t know? Do you a drivers’ license? Do you have a car? Did you move out? Are you happy with your life? 20 year old me:

I genuinely like Fujitora.  He actually cares for people and is out for real justice.  He understands that justice can be a grey area.  I’m sure he knows well that not all pirates are bad and not all marines are good.  He, like Smoker, is a class act.  I’d actually like to see a bit more background on him (like what was the final straw that made him blind himself?).
