WELCOME to the first official class of Renge's School of Fangirls and Fanboys, dedicated to those in Memento Eden who have yet to be educated in the arts of fangirling and fanboying! Our topic today will be:
Yes, the most precious art! Fanfiction is fan-made fiction based on the original source, using their characters and settings and further exploring themes! Here are some basic rules:
- Self-inserts are typically a no-no, looked down upon by fandom! Original Characters, or OCs, are acceptable, however!
- Double-check your spelling and grammar! Minor errors are overlooked, but terrible ones are not!
- Keep to one POV, or Point of View, until you learn to write more advanced fanfiction!
- Leave a space between paragraphs! Not doing so may lead to the Wall of Text, which is sure to hurt any reader's eyes! This is commonly also known as the Wall of Doom!
- Remember to put warnings in the front if need be! Genres are recommended, and putting pairings in the summary will be even better! For example:
Title: A Rainy Day
Genre: Gen/Romance
Rated: G
Length: One-shot
Characters: Itsuki and Izuru
Izuru waited in the rain. It was a very cold rain, and it soaked his clothes until they plastered on his skin. Yet still, he waited, and waited, and waited, and waited. But Gin never came.
"Why are you waiting here?" Izuru started, but it was only Itsuki. He could not say his reasons, so he looked away. But Itsuki noticed, and gently lowered his umbrella so it shaded both of them. Izuru's eyes widened slightly.
"I won't ask why," Itsuki said, tossing his head back, and allowing his hair to flick in that beautifully beautiful way. "Let's go home." He extended his hand. "Together."
Then they went home. Together.
EVERYBODY. Your assignment is to write at least a two line fanfiction for me! Also, be warned, random pop quizzes may appear at any time! RENGE out!
