I would like to talk today about the mistakes that authors make when starting to write their fanfiction. As sad as it may be, they are common. Perhaps each writer will recognize himself by reading one of the items on the list. So, let's begin.
1) Self-doubt.
It often happens that you have an idea for a fanfiction, you walk around and think about it for a long time, you come up with so many things that you almost draw the layout of the place where everything will happen. You've even told all your friends about it already. And it seems that you have everything you need to write, but ... you think: “What if nonsense comes out?” You are not confident in your abilities, that you will not succeed “as well as that author over there”, that you will come up with something awkward.
There is only one thing to say here: believe in yourself. If you yourself like the idea, then why not at least try to start writing? Confidence will appear over time, because the most important and difficult thing is to start.
2) Lack of time.
And it looks like you started writing something. Yes, he swung so much that he wrote as many as three chapters in one fell swoop. But the next day you suddenly have urgent business. Then another, and another, and another… It becomes a habit, it becomes a kind of excuse. Every day you say to yourself: “I’ll definitely sit down tomorrow!”, But in the end, then you sit it out somewhere on the Internet.
There is always time to write something, even if you are busy. If you are really interested in this and it is important to you, then there is always time. Again, the key is to start.
3) Stamps.
It is not simple typical mistake, and, one might say, the most common of all. On our website, these same stamps are divided into several large main groups:
A) MC, or "I am a descendant of Superman."
This mistake is often found in fanfiction about the Naruto universe. It usually starts with Naruto walking around somewhere and thinking, “Why does everyone hate me so much? What did I do to them? Then he either goes home or something happens that makes him pass out. Then, somehow, after a conversation with a six-year-old boy, somewhere in the subconscious, the nine-tails changes his mind about destroying everything and everything and trains the child. As a result, already at the age of ten, Naruto has an overpowered strength, knows a bunch of techniques, and his body is rocked. In general, almost with a snap of a finger, he can take out Kaguya or anyone else. And this is only ten years old! At sixteen, he becomes a god in general!
b) a wedding with a stranger in the name of combining companies and families.
It is also a very common stamp. Usually heroes of 16-18 years old are taken. At the same time, the characters either know each other and are even classmates, or they don’t know, but “have already seen each other somewhere”. Both parents say that they will soon marry them, because the heads of the companies are friends, and in order to further strengthen themselves, they decide to marry their children. And, which is typical, both of them do not like this prospect, or one of them is in love with the other - if not both;
c) school life.
Anything can be included in this paragraph. From ordinary gatherings and love affairs to all sorts of action. It can be written about how friends help a guy or a girl achieve the location of their passion, after which they usually just waste time pointlessly, walking, going home, which is rather boring to read. It may also be that they are somehow involved in crimes or other "very interesting" adventures;
d) love at first sight.
Here, it usually happens according to the same plan. The girl lives. Usually she is either the first beauty, that even crowds of guys run after her, leaving a trail of saliva, or an outcast who either has no friends, or only two. And suddenly a guy is transferred to them unearthly beauty, in which our heroine immediately falls in love - and not only. Then they somehow become friends, and almost the same thing happens as in the third paragraph.
d) double love.
Here, usually not one person is in love, but both at once. In such fanfics, they always help them to get closer to them. best friends- Sasuke and Sakura. They different ways they try to bring together stupid and indecisive lovers, and often everything works out almost the first time.
e) tsundere.
I think it's clear from the title. In such fan fiction, it usually happens like this: a character - no matter if it's a guy or a girl - at the very beginning is cold and indifferent, sometimes even aggressive. But then he meets him/her. He/she is trying his/her best to make him/her even smile, and at the end of this fanfic cold character turns into “mi-mi-mi” - snot from love;
g) a super-rich relative.
It usually happens here that Naruto's parents died. After that, Jiraiya, a rich uncle, takes him to him. Raises, educates and all that. Naruto goes to expensive school, drives an expensive car, at the age of sixteen he even has his own house with three floors!
g) a friend from the past.
There is such a category of fan fiction where everything starts with a scene from childhood, where the characters say goodbye - which then turns out to be a dream or a memory - and then either a girl or a guy is transferred to some school, and one of them starts to think: “Where is this did you see him/her?”
h) meeting with super-beings.
This includes fanfiction, where there are vampires, werewolves, demons and other monsters. Most often there are fanfictions, where, again, in new school two friends are being transferred. When communicating, one of the girlfriends, when communicating with the guys in the class, notes their pallor, after which, in some way, red eyes still flash, which haunts the girls. Then these girls usually get dragged into monster fights just because they held hands with one of those vampires.
With demons, it's a little different. There it happens that girls can be drawn into any deal or marriage.
Well, that's all the main clichés of fanfiction. Go ahead.
4) Poor, inexpressive language.
You can write in different ways, but it is better to write expressively. The poor language of 30 words is hard to read and perceived poorly. Fanfiction without descriptions is not interesting to read. If the writer imagines the whole atmosphere that is in fan fiction - for example, watching the sunset - then without proper description, the reader simply will not feel the same as the writer. But again, don't overdo it.
5) Inattention to details or an excessive amount of them.
Details first of all shape the character, create a three-dimensional world and give reality to even the strangest fantasy. Description of a person and his character - let the latter be very brief - any traditions, important dates and holidays. Without such details, the world becomes inexpressive. There is such a thing that someone clogs the details with action, but you still need to be able to do this.
The other side of the coin is an over-reliance on details. A description, for example, of a half-page mug on which the hero’s gaze accidentally fell, is too much. Some balance needs to be kept.
6) Predictability of the plot.
Reading fanfiction in which you can already predict in advance almost the denouement from the first lines is not interesting. You need to try to start the fanfic in such a way that the reader is interested: “What will happen next? How will this story end?
7) Incorrect text formatting.
Text layout also plays important role in perception. Correctly and beautifully formatted text is a pleasure to read. Now more and more there is such that even the dialogues of the current authors do not know how to beautifully and correctly arrange. Increasingly, for the most part, all dialogues are framed as a kind of “script”, which looks rather repulsive.
8) Long and complex sentences.
long sentences and Difficult words frighten the reader. The abundance of them sometimes makes you want to just close the tab. You should not be zealous, trying to write something complicated and intricate, a simple reader may simply not understand this. There is a fine line between complex texts and very simple ones that do not have semantic load. You just need to find the one golden mean. Also, if the author writes long sentences consisting of several parts, then most often he does not separate them properly. Instead of a sign; the author puts a comma, because of which the boundaries of thought are erased and everything turns into a mess. You need to be able to understand and distinguish where one thought ends and another begins, if you are already writing long sentences.
9) Any criticism stops.
It is worth telling someone that in the history of a novice author of mistakes - whether grammatical or logical - the first actions that you want to take are to get upset and leave the resource on which the fanfic was posted. All authors receive some criticism, it is especially difficult for novice authors to tolerate it. Having received criticism, and even not the best, instead of continuing, the author stops. Criticism needs to be accepted and something needs to be done. Skip unsubstantiated comments like “Ugh, shit.”
10) Edit? Why is this?
In fact, writing a fanfiction or a chapter to it is not such a big problem: I sat down and wrote it. For an hour, a day, a week. But after that it gets very milestone: editing. At this stage, it is necessary to remove the superfluous, cross out empty or inappropriate sentences or paragraphs, and brutally crack down on clichés and clichés. If you do not put the fanfic in order, then behind the mistakes, jambs and absurdity the reader will not see the beauty of the story, interesting characters and get confused in unnecessary actions and descriptions. Therefore, before posting the text for public viewing, edit it.
11) Stop writing.
The biggest mistake a new writer can make is to stop writing altogether. In this case, he will forever remain a beginner. Writing is a skill that is reinforced by either talent or experience. It can and should be trained. Throwing is easy. But to continue, gradually improving, is worthy of respect. It is important to understand the importance of what you are doing. The force that makes you move forward is always inside, not outside. Therefore, everything depends only on you.
What. I hope that you could, or at least be able to avoid such unpleasant moments and write an interesting, highly rated and atypical fanfic in order to please us, regular readers as well as new ones.
Guys, we put our soul into the site. Thanks for that

Writing is the path of practice. You can get a specialized education, you can read educational literature And useful articles, but when it comes down to it, theoretical knowledge does not always help - it is difficult to wade through the jungle of information in the process of writing and use theory in parallel, especially if there is no experience. And the mistakes start. And these mistakes - sometimes unconscious - confuse and stop work. Therefore, it is important to know about them - this is just the theory that is associated with practice and helps in working on history.
Let's talk about them in more detail.
The first mistake: “The main thing is the idea!”, Or the lack of preliminary work.
There are a couple of heroes, there are a couple of adventures, there are vague things. And there is interest and inspiration. However, this is not enough. The lack of a well-thought-out plot, a clear idea and twisted intrigue, the study of heroes and conflicts “on the go” are fraught with empty text and “water” - unnecessary events that in no way affect the plot. And even an action game with romance will not save a “watery” book without changing the plot.
Of course, it’s difficult to work out everything thoroughly in advance, but partially it’s possible: to build the path of the characters before the beginning of the book, come up with three or four bright plot events that will change the course of history, unfold the conflict and find a “peppercorn”. In a long novel story, as in a multi-day trip, you need to go with solid "baggage" and with a map of the area, and not hope to pick up all the facts along the way.
Error two: “The story takes place in France, although I have never been there ...”, or the error of ignorance.
Many people, being infected by a film or a book, begin to write about what they do not understand at all. about space and spaceships, about brave warriors and glorious fights, about big and pure love With bed scenes. And while the first do not know anything about physical laws space and a complete zero in technology, the latter never held a sword in their hands and saw the assaults on fortresses only in Hollywood films and still others have never had love or sex. However, it is impossible to reliably write about what you do not understand, what you know from films or hearsay. And authenticity is important, otherwise the reader will not believe in the story.
Therefore, the first or second book, in order to fill your hand, you need to write using personal experience. Even if it comes down to hanging in computer games- what is not the beginning of a story in the litrpg genre? And if you undertake to write about the Middle Ages, you will have to study the "materiel" in order to recreate the life and customs of the peoples. And by the way, you have a sword in your hands, you will have to hold it, and it won’t hurt to ride a horse.
Mistake three: "Hello, dear diary! ..", or the troubles and misfortunes of the author, as well as the desire to cry, tell about yourself, or teach life.
It is a fact, but the identity of the author in history is of no interest to anyone. And novice authors often stick out their own "I" in the form of a super-cool and invincible hero, super-sexual and. And such cardboard characters, without flaws and flaws, are also uninteresting, because they are deprived of life. And reflections-teachings - too. And the author's dreams and troubles - too. Readers need interesting and exciting stories, living characters with strengths and weaknesses, and not a list of the author's aspirations and experiences. And books are written for readers - and for their entertainment or distraction, and not for "crying", "show off" and so on.
Fourth mistake: “I love Middle-earth!”, or indefatigable imitation.
Stealing is bad, yes. Of course, everyone works with templates and drags images from everywhere - from mythology, and from legends, and from other people's books, but too obvious borrowing and imitation indicates the author's meager imagination. And if we take familiar images and interesting plot twists, then then bring your own into them - and not just use it, but wisely. And if you imitate, then no more than in a couple of books, while experience is being gained. And more to invent and use your own.
Mistake five: “I don’t write today, there is no inspiration,” or waiting for the right time.
…which happens extremely rarely. And desired for weeks, months, and even years. But write, as Stephen King noted, you need to write every day. Though on a page, though on a paragraph. simple math: if you write every day, then in a month you will have 20-30 pages of text, and if you wait for inspiration, then there will be nothing. Of course, it is sometimes terribly difficult to drive yourself behind a computer, but if you are truly interested in history, then sooner or later this is precisely what is called inspiration.
Mistake six: “I write my own and therefore I don’t read someone else’s”, or the fear of losing the rhythm.
And also - to get carried away by someone else's epic and lose touch with your own history. And also - unwillingness to waste "writing" time for reading. And…
Not reading anything in the process of work is very big mistake. Books - especially high-quality and classic ones - are a wonderful workshop. It is in other people's stories that one can find interesting plot moves, track the construction of plots and conflicts, the development of intrigue and character images. Not to mention that implicitly - subconsciously - we learn the norms of morphology and grammar and learn to write correctly.
And, by the way, returning to the previous point, you can find inspiration in books: sometimes one successful phrase becomes an idea that will bring you out of a stupor, prompt the next move and prompt an unexpected thought.
Mistake seven: "My story - I do what I want," or work without a future for the novel.
Of course, if you write to "splash out" - to pull the story out without pretending to be more, then yes, your right to write as it is written and do whatever you want. But if you plan to put the novel on public display on the Web on light sites, promote and sell, if so, then you will have to take into account the needs of the market and the audience. And keep the genre. And adjust.
By the way, in August we will analyze in detail how to work with the readership and analyze the book market, on "I want to be a writer: the beginning of the beginning". And not only her. If you want to embark on a writing journey without making stupid mistakes and without wasting too much time, come! I promise it will be interesting!
Yes, and book in advance - the group is limited.
On the other hand, you can write the way you want and see it, and then properly rework the draft for publishing requirements, but this is insanely hard work. And it’s better to decide right away - for yourself or for readers, for a book or for publication.
Eighth mistake: “Everything will fit on the farm”, or attempts to use all the material.
When a writer starts work, he always has source material - notes on the images of the characters and the world, rough plan(or at least a list) of plot moves, sketches of episodes. And everything, to the last point, I want to use. So that not a single word born in torment is wasted. However... it's fantastic. In practice, history develops differently than in imagination, and old images change and new ones appear, adding plot details. And it turns out that some of the source material is no longer suitable. And pushing it in is ruining history.
Of course, it's a pity - very pity - accumulated material. But if it does not fit into history, it must be abandoned. The author of this article thus “disappears” two-thirds of the source material, although at first it seems that he will ironically “get up” in the text. However, the material fulfilled its mission - it helped to form images, illuminated the world and clarified the idea, set the plot direction, inspired the author himself to exploits, infecting him with the right mood. And it must be ... let go without regret.
Mistake nine: "What if not ...", or a series of fears.
What if it doesn’t work out, what if I don’t like it, what if I don’t finish it, what if, what if… And all these “friends” confuse, stop work and sometimes frustrate to the extreme - to the point of wanting to quit what they started or bury what was written in the table.
Not to fall for them is very difficult even for established writers, not to mention beginners. However, returning to simple mathematics, if you succumb to fears, then time and effort will go into the void, and not into work. Yes, there is no panacea for fears - everyone develops their own algorithm, but it needs to be worked out as soon as possible, as soon as fear manifests itself. It's difficult, but possible.
Mistake ten: "And the continuation is just asking ... probably," or working with one story in ten books.
Some will say that this is not a mistake, however. There are very few authors of high-quality epics, in which subsequent books were not worse than the previous ones, did not look sucked out of thin air. And if you write epics, then plan it in advance and break up a large-scale idea into small links. And if you work with one world, then use different heroes, other intrigues and conflicts, avoiding uniformity. And even more so not to write a sequel just because readers ask, or because it’s scary to take on new world. Or because there are no new ideas.
Continuation for the sake of continuation is a waste of time. And the stigma of "the author of one book" paints few people. And the more diverse creativity, the more new ideas and other worlds, the more opportunities to express themselves and interest their stories and readers, and - what the hell is not joking? - publishers.

If we are talking about errors in prose, then we are talking about novice authors. Those who ate the dog do not make mistakes. Including editors. Therefore, if the book of a popular author is replete with absurdities, then, firstly, he is a hard-working mediocre scribbler, and secondly, he has chosen a useless editor for himself. But usually the latter, at the very least, copes with the duties of reshaping the text, and the result is a quite tolerably sitting suit - a product for mass reading.
So, what beacons illuminate the author's ineptitude?
- unjustified repetitions: "She had blue eyes, proudly refusing to face the truth, eyes";
- the inability to find a replacement for the ubiquitous verb "to be", as well as pronouns in the third person. Example by pronouns:
“SHE, tilting her head to one side, peered into the faces of the applicants, hastily thought up a question, and if she liked the answer, SHE accepted the job without ceremony”). It suffices here to strike out the second pronoun. Somewhere you can try to pick up synonyms, somewhere to rebuild the sentence. For example, snippet:
“A nimble, sugary young man came to HER, and SHE immediately came up with a series of desperate girls wandering around HER apartment, who, alas, will not miss the petty rock that settled in HER house” -
can be submitted like this:
“A nimble, sugary young man came. And immediately came up with a series of desperate girls wandering around the apartment, who, alas, will not miss the petty rock that has settled in her house ”;
- verbosity, redundancy: "young girl" / "young guy of seventeen", "little dwarf" / "hefty big man", "autumn October days", etc.
- lengthy and, in fact, empty mono- and dialogues (examples of how not to write dialogues can be found in Russian-made soap operas)
- lack of a clear understanding in whose place the author (narrator) "sees" himself, i.e. in the direction of which of the characters his point of view is shifted at one time or another.
"Dear
Anatoly Konstantinovich!
Forgive me for the delay in replying to your letter, caused by the fact that just the other day I returned from a business trip. All your questions are related to the use of capital or lower case in personal pronouns. The following position has been established: uppercase letter in the words you, yours, etc. is written only when referring to one person (individual or legal), while usually in personal correspondence. Therefore, you can stick to the second option in each of the pairs you have given, i.e. write in lower case.
Sincerely, D. Rosenthal

Hello.
Your example can be attributed to redundancy (where a young girl is 17 years old), as well as to a tautology when oil is oil.
Errors can be different, the article shows only a few - the most common.
Alexander Prokopovich, director of Astrel-SPb, speaks about the mistakes of novice writers. And I want to believe him.
I return again to lectures and reports at LiTerraCon2015. This report was made on the last day of the convention, but it did not become less interesting and entertaining. And useful. I hope he will also tell you how to behave with letters.
So. With your permission, I will quote Alexander.
1. This is an immensely prolonged composition. No one is interested in reading about the weather outside the window for a hundred pages. The beginning of the book is where you start the fight for the reader. If the beginning is not brilliant, if it is not written with talent… alas! The reader will leave, the editor will leave. From the recommendations: the first and last author's sheets should be "ah!"
2. Many SI people are used to working with cycles, they forget that each book should be self-sufficient. Understand that the bookshelf will not have all the books in the series. Therefore, each book should end logically, and the next one should briefly talk about the events of the previous one.
3. Final. The worst thing is the author's decision to end on a certain amount signs. So, I wrote and wrote, found that I had rolled 12 alcohols, and said to myself: “Well, okay, I finished the first book.” No! Let it be more alks, but the ending should be logical.
The author must initially know how the book will end. “I write how it will end - I don’t know ...” There are many of them. The author is wrong in this case. The ending should be logical, intriguing and beautiful. Let you have a dozen options for the final. But they should be. Let the ending be transformed as a result of the development of the plot, but it should be.
4. The authors forget what a story and a plot are. Always ask yourself if my book contains good story? Because just an excerpt from the life of a hero is of no interest to anyone. You must reveal the idea, the psychology of the hero, his growth and perception through the story.
5. Lack of credibility. Details and texture are very important. If your grass is blue, then explain why. If tangerines are on the table, then they should smell. It is not enough to describe the events, you should add smells, touches. Remember, a writer is a manipulator. But not everyone manages to get into the head of the reader.
6. Internal Roles. Theses need to be proven. If your hero is macho, then this should be reflected in his behavior, habits and mannerisms. Well, at least, his bed should be warmed by beauties one better than the other. If the hero is a nerd, he must say smart things. If a loser - must stumble and fall.
7. Always return to the base hero. A book is not written in a week. The author is influenced by external factors and sometimes this is transferred to the hero. The hero can transform, but the author must not forget who the hero was originally conceived of. It happens that the author suddenly becomes comfortable with the hero of the second plan, and then he is given too much space. Don't forget who your main character is.
8. Adequacy of volume. Don't give one-third of the book to the bar. Yes, you may be comfortable there, cozy and comfortable. But not all of your readers like lager beer...
9. Inability to prepare a climax. Remember: the key fight should take up more than three paragraphs. Pump up the situation, for example, with time frames (countdown), change of time (the whole story is in the past, and the climax is in the present), change of place, entourage, weather. Find the contrast that sets off your punchline.
10. The desire to sell cheap is not an option. Don't speak directly. For example, he is a thief. Tell a legend, a story in history, hint that the hero is not just a thief, but perhaps one of the best. Arouse suspicion.
11. Do not confuse story and retelling. The author draws a picture - this is a story that will give an idea about the hero, his habits. The author describes what happened - then a retelling. For example, the woman took off her outer clothing. Okay, is it winter outside? So she's wearing a fur coat. Is she rich and spoiled? So, he can throw a fox coat in the hallway without looking where.
12. Less common words!!!
13. The author should not know what the target audience is. Don't give a damn! The author must understand the targeting of his message. It's not a matter of inspiration. It is a matter of wide distribution of your creativity. Don't offer target audience something you have no idea about. Understandability is important. Not simple, but understandable.
14. Microhistory raises the level of the text. If the hero does not change in the episode, does not grow above himself, remove the episode or combine it with a more important one.
15. The reader perceives the book as a whole: language, history, plot, humor, dialogue. If any of this sags, he will move on, and you, as the author, will be left with nothing.
16. Before sending the text to the publisher, the author must re-read it from beginning to end. Do not think that your work ends with the word "END". The editor, having found ten errors on the first page, will return the manuscript.
OK it's all over Now. All the most important. The rest is up to you.
