Hey, everyone! Most of you who have been here for over...two months, I'd say, remember how crazy the fanfiction situation can get. After a new book comes out, people get excited and start Pagsulat their new fanfic. Which is wonderful. Really, it's great. Unfortunately, it leaves this club, one for discussion and socializing, a big jumbled up blur of a bunch of new fanfictions.
I realize it's probably not my place to be Pagsulat this as I've only been fanpopping since June, but I've been following this club (not in the stalkerish way XD) since October of last year. So I know how much the fanfic situation exploded.
Okay, enough with my ramblings, on to the point.
If you're bothering to read this artikulo and are posting/working on a new fanfiction, please please just do at least one of the following:
1. READ AMPH'S RULES.
They're rules posted sa pamamagitan ng Amphitrite and reposted sa pamamagitan ng weirdo2 about how to set up your fanfic. Some aspects of it include: how to head it up, making sure it's posted in a forum, not a series of articles, making sure that it's your best Pagsulat with good grammar and punctuation. They're so so helpful and really do make your fanfic madami polished.
2. sumali PAULION'S SPOT.
Paulion recently made a spot called The Fanfic. It's a spot where you can write, post, share, and read your and other people's fanfics. Now, I know most of you are worried that no one will read it if you post it there, but the spot was formed a few days nakaraan and already has 32 fans. It may not seem like much, but if you start posting your fanfic there and advertising it on this spot, your readers will sumali and their readers will sumali and so on and so forth.
Not everyone has to post their fanfic there but I've seen some of the elder members talking about what to do with all the new Mark of Athena fanfictions sure to come after the release of the Son of Neptune. Even before the code of no spoilers has been lifted, we already have a ton of new fanfics.
So if you have a fanfic you started posting after October 4th, I strongly recommend you read the rules and ilipat it over to the new fanfiction spot.
I'm nearly done, I swear, I just have one madami thing to add: before starting to post your fanfic, think carefully if you're ready to do it. Are you ready to keep up a posting schedule? Have you researched enough? Do you already have long-term ideas for much later in the story planned out? Do you know in which direction the story's going?
If not...maybe think about the sagot to some of these questions, scrawl them down, and write a beautiful new fanfiction.
