Re: Question for the serious Fanficcers

[dreemyweird]

I guess there is no single universal recipe, but what helps me is 1) planning the story out beforehand and making sure that the plot is IC (all the twists that depend on the characters' reactions to things) and 2) asking myself why I write this or that description/scene/piece of dialogue. In my experience, flat, generic characters are flat and generic because their arcs are full of filler scenes that do not serve a characterization purpose and are just there because the author needs a smooth transition from one bit of the plot to another. You could try sitting down and specifically asking yourself: "how can I make my filler scenes distinctly IC? what would my character do in their leisure time? What would their feelings be about this arc I've just finished?"

Basically, ask yourself explicitly what and why you're doing, plan ahead, and look at the larger structure.

I admit I struggle with the tightly plotting out. I generally have an idea and rough sketch, but it is keeping the characters on track through that. I'll try plotting more carefully though.
