How to write a terrible fanfiction!

Outfits

This has been briefly covered but not really.

When you are describing a characters clothes, it is not crucial to detail everything. To be honest, no matter how amazing a writer you are, it gets boring.

Describing the physical attributes of a character is different, but what you put on in the morning is different.

Especially to you BANDOM!

No, you did not wake up, put on a fuck ton of eye makeup, put on a band shirt, converse and some obscure color of skinny jeans, get hit by daddy and then go to school.

I HAVE SEEN THIS.

I woke up and brushed my cherry red hair out of my eyes... Oh well normal day, I put on my favorite Panic! At the disco shirt, purple skinnies and my lucky Black Parade hoodie. Then I put on my makeup, eyeliner, mascara, eyeshadow and light lipstick. I need my converse of course, bright green!

This is a shitty ass description.

If you're going to write another one of these shitty stories, at least write your clothes description, like this.

I woke up and brushed my cherry red hair out of my eyes. Following the normal routine, I got myself dressed in my 'weird' clothes and put on my makeup.

That's also a shitty description BUT at least it doesn't take up a ton of room, I could flash by that in a second and it could easily be redeemed by a good plot or good description of their physical body and not clothes.

It's different if it's like prom or a date, then you could describe how much time you spent finding a dress but watch this.

I loved it, a beautiful evening gown with a white brazier and a black skirt coming down just above my knees. The tule fell past behind me though, down to my ankles.

Quick and you get a sence of the dress.

This is the worst thin you can do though: link an outfit.

Think about it for a moment, if you're writing a real novel that you're trying to get published, are you going to have a polyvore link in there? No, you're not.

Don't send links to outfits, it's tacky and it sends the vibe that you're lazy.

I'm NOT saying you're lazy, but when you send a link to something in a story to describe it, you appear to be lazy.
