The 27 Commandments of Fanfiction

[icewyche]

Found this while randomly surfing FanFiction.net. This should be required reading for EVERY aspiring fanfic writer, because it is f**king BRILLIANT:

The 27 Commandments of Fanfiction1. Thou shalt not post a fic until it has been checked for grammar and spelling errors. The fanfiction gods hath given you a spellchecker on the computer for good

It'd be funnier if there weren't so many grammatical and syntactic errors and inconsistencies in it. Particular as they appear to be neither intentional nor ironic...

I wish people would obey these commandments, but above all I wish people who attempt to invoke Early Modern English actually knew how to do it. :P

I just happened across it while randomly viewing FFn profiles, but I can't find the original author - several people have it, so it could be anyone. I copied it to mine, so feel free to steal.
