Hello everyone!
I am a grown woman now and am no longer a k-pop stan, but I will continue to publish these whenever I see it fit.
In this chapter I'd actually like to discontinue my bitching for a moment and actually give some feedback and tips for those aspiring to write a fanfic or any piece of literature really.
1. Language/Grammar
If you struggle with spelling, sentence structure, or a language barrier, use Grammarly or PaperRater so get more proficient with writing!! It'll let you know your overall score and suggestions to make your words more interesting.
2. Humanization
This one is most specifically towards fanfic writers. If you decide you want to write about a real life person, study their quirks, most used phrases and habits. I still see people making jokes about Jimin having no jams and Jungkook's banana milk.... it's been 10 years ya'll.... get a grip. I feel really old referencing these things with so many new generations of idols out, so I apologize if that was a little tone deaf.
3. Cliches
If you're a beginner writer and you are really struggling to get something creative out there, star with a basic cliche. (This is so alarming for ME of all people to suggest)
It will help improve your writing as you go, and it would make the story extremely funny if perhaps some self-awareness was added or some 4th wall breaking.
Thats really all I have for now. I haven't read a fanfiction in YEARS so let me go do that and maybe ill have more to bitch about
