DO: Write something ORIGINAL for once!!! Original works are brilliant! They capture the reader's mind. Write about someone whose robotic, someone who can't remember anything... the reason that Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, and the Harry Potter series are so famous is because they were original works. Where else do you see people with lightsabers battling evil lords, with names that we've all grown to love like: Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker and siths. Where else can we find hobbits who go on a grand adventure... to destroy an evil ring? Or have a young wizard? NO WHERE! That's because they came out of an author's head, not from his/her internet. I'm saying, that fan fictions are FINE, because even I've written some, but seriously, Harry Styles... there's a few too many stories!!
DON'T: Copy someone's work! While writing a fan fic is perfectly OK, I've seen many cases of the plagarism plague. People have thought: Hey, that's a great idea for a story!!!... and just copied it in their own words. How rude!!! Seriously, though, folks: how many Harry Styles fanfics have we got out there??? Probably 100,000,000,000,000,000,000.... oh and those 5 that people have deleted. YEAH we all love 1D - most of us - some of us... OK most of us, but enough with Harry Styles! There are WAY cuter guys out there. Take a dive in the deep end and come up with something awesome! Enough with the geeky guy/girl who falls in love with the bad guy/girl and they live happily ever after, or not.
