Fanfic Writing General

@Background Pony #1299  
As long as Twilight turns human too and not stuck as a pony, then I’m OK with it.

@HJSDGCE  
she is human in the fanfiction she even has to share the bed with sci twilight they slowly become more like twin sinisters

@Background Pony #1299  
Alright, sure.  
But stay away from romance. From all my experience of reading fanfiction, I’ve learned that romance is hard to write and most write it either for more views or because of shipping.

@HJSDGCE  
maybe a little to parody the dating 2 people at the same time comedic trope I mean someone on a date with twilight & sci twilight at the same time see the humor?

@Background Pony #1299  
Wouldn’t that just make him a pimp?

@HJSDGCE  
no you see he has to go back & forth twilight in one restaurant & sci twilight in a another restaurant near by get it?

@Background Pony #1299  
Sounds like the main focus is the guy and not Twilight anymore.  
Also, the guy sounds like a dick.

@HJSDGCE  
yea that’s the point anyway imagine the 2 of them living together?

@Background Pony #1299  
Eh… Starting to lose my interests here.  
Feels like some unnecessary drama with an easily forgettable antagonist.  
Like, the guy has nothing to gain by dating both of them. Plus, we all know the difference between SciTwi and ordinary Twi. So, that would mean he would have to act differently in both times.

Lemme ask you this.  
If you’re gonna go with this double romance subplot, how would this dude meet either of the Twis?

@toxicrystal  
probably take a few pages of how community did

@HJSDGCE  
that’s just a subplot the romance part is for like one chapter the story is more like “wheel this is weird” kinda comedic story its an idea I had while reading the current comic unbeatable squirrel girl

@Background Pony #1299  
If it’s comedic, then better make it worth that genre. No easily solvable drama. Hell, no drama at all for that one chapter!

I did it!

It is approved!
 
Yay!

@warc9
 
Congrats. It only took a week but you did it. I think I’ll take a look.
 
…
 
It sucks and I hate it.
 
I kid. It’s on my Read Later list.

@Dustcan
 
Yay! Thanks, I hope you like reading it!

I want to one day commission artwork of scenes from what I write. As awesome as that sounds I’m actually worried the writing itself won’t live up to the hype of the drawings that come with it.

Anyone else love the idea of writing “bad” characters (i.e.: Mary Sues, characters that act like heroes no matter what they do, etc.) and then starting to unravel them near the end of the story so they’re human after all?

@toxicrystal  
It certainly sounds good.

@toxicrystal  
I’d like to give that a try honestly.

@Marx  
I know that was my idea with my Persona fic, where it seemed like the main character was a Mary Sue because she made friends and treated them however she wanted and pretty much used them, but in the end, she was put on the spot for it by the main villain, and she was ultimately powerless because of it.  
She definitely regret it and changed for the better, but it still wasn’t too acceptable.

@toxicrystal  
Acceptable as in the reception from readers or the people in the story?

@Marx  
For both, I guess.  
I mean, would it be acceptable if someone simply used their friends?
