Ok, Now since I already made one on How NOT to Make a PJO Fanfic
I'm going to make one on HOW to Make a PJO Fanfic
But most of these are just Ideas and a few things some people on Wattpad, seemed to have forgotten.
Some of the stuff is what I did with a PJO Book that's currently in progress
Stuff like Appearances and such I'm not gonna cover because those are gonna be covered later on in this book
Anyways, Let's begin
1. Be Original
Come on people. because no one wants to read the same Chaos, Demigods Go to Highschool or Mary Sue goes to Camp Half Blood books for the 50th time this week.
I'm not saying DON'T go with those plot lines, I'm just saying if you are, spice it up a little, I mean, instead of the Gods making the seven go to School for the sake of their education, why not make them go to that school undercover as regular School Kids to keep an eye on a hoard of Monsters or something.
Instead of Percy being the one Chaos takes in, why not make it an OC? Or even one of the Minor Characters like
I mean people, there are so many ways to be original and flavor up a plot line for a bit (Heck, even a crossover between Percy Jackson and Gravity Falls would be interesting XD, I mean, why do a Harry Potter crossover that's been done 50,000 times already if there's other shows, books and media to experiment with?)
2. Grammar and Vocab people,Uncle Rick uses it, Your Mom uses it, Your English Teacher uses it, I mean, how can you write a epic book if you keep writing like, this:
I wek op in le marnin end loked arount ma rom end somersalted ot ma bet end ga ento ma cloced, puddong on a selvir mene drezz
Ok, most people don't write like that and I understand not all of us have English as a first language, but careless and even stupid mistakes can be avoided easily by using stuff like Grammarly or even Microsoft Word, or atleast take a few minutes to read through your work
I mean, for me I use Microsoft and Auto Correct. But even I make my mistakes
But like my 8th grade Media and Literature teacher always said "always check your work when you plan on publishing it before, because if someone finds a string of silly mistakes in your story that could've easily been avoided? you'll just look careless about your work"
3. DON'T break up any Canon Couples, yes, I know we all love Percy and Leo but some of us seem to forget they already found their Mrs Right. Yes, I get it, I mean, I myself had a crush on Leo Mcshizzle once upon a time but I'm not willing enough to break up his relationship with Calypso. Cuz well, if there's one girl who needs a awesome man like that? It's Calypso(Come on People, the poor girl deserves him more, she's been through alot)
and if you're that desperate for your Oc to get some love, why not make a guy or girl willing enough to stand by their side? I mean that would be much more convenient. If you can make one demigod, you can certainly have the power and skill to make another one.
4. Make the OC, Gay, Bi or even Trans
come on People, it's 2017 Damit, I'm tired of seeing Miss Mary Sue going on random dates with guys all day and turning her nose in disgust when someone mentions dating a girl for a change.
plus it makes your Protagonist more interesting and relatable especially with the LGBTQ+ Community
I mean, the options are endless people, the options are endless, plus it would make your OC a much more interesting character
