Absolute Fanfiction Writing Advice
I wrote and read Fanfiction for five years. In these five years, I learned many things. But these is still a lot to learn for me. To celebrate my five year anniversary, I want to collect said knowledge. While not all is stuff I learned over the last five years, I will inject personal anecdotes and stories to make it less boring.

The Writer In You: Begin your story. Claim your voice.
You're not "not a writer." You're just stuck in the part nobody warns you about. You've got scenes in your head. Lines that hit you in the shower. A whole book living in your chest-pressing on your ribs like it wants OUT. And then... you open a blank page and freeze. You overthink. You edit. You doubt. You promise "tomorrow." Tomorrow turns into months. Months turn into years. That ends here. The Writer In You: Begin your story. Claim your voice. isn't a fluffy "believe in yourself" pep talk. It's a quick, real-life guide built for busy, overwhelmed people who still want to finish something that matters. Inside, you'll learn how to: -start writing even when you don't feel ready -break writer's block and stop waiting on motivation -capture ideas the second they show up (before life steals them) -draft without self-sabotage (no more editing while writing!) -build a simple writing routine you can actually keep -turn your emotions into pages that feel honest, vivid, and powerful -stop abandoning your work, and finish your story If you're on Wattpad, you already know the truth: *The world rewards the writers who show up. Not the writers who "plan" to show up. So if you're scrolling because you're avoiding that blank page... THIS IS YOUR SIGN. Begin your story. Claim your voice. Because the writer you're waiting for... is already you.

Prisimpad: A Guide to Wattpad, Writing, and Whatever
I will no longer be updating this guide. I'm leaving it up in case it will continue to be helpful to anyone in the future. People have asked me writing tips, Wattpad tips, and whatever. This is some of that advice I give them. Keep in mind most of this is my opinion in addition to things other people have taught me to do and not to do. It is by no means 100% to be followed but only a guide to get you thinking. The beauty of writing is that there is no one correct answer. We each learn and adapt to our own personal styles.
