Meta Rec: "So You Want To Write Fanfictions On the Internets"

[flowrs4ophelia]

There is not enough "WORD" in the universe for this post that is so totally perfect and pretty damn funny. Wise words that every newb writer needs to hear and which even some writers with years of experience on the internets may need to hear or could use hearing again. A lot of this is pretty good advice regarding any kind of writing, too. traveller especially wins for addressing the egregious use of epithets as well as descriptions of characters of minority races as "exotic" (Jesus Christ, kids, just DON'T DO IT).
