@curryserver: FANFIC WRITING TIPS PART 11 | as someone with adhd research feels like a big chore so if there is something existing that i can learn from thats fun to read or watch i'll use that to help me world build! at the end of the day it is also fanfiction so you dont need to be 100% accurate hahaha #ao3 #fanfic #writingtips
I'm low-key terrified of writing fanfic for stuff set in America but then I always remember when I used to be a harry potter fan and Americans would have the characters say "mom"

Rough Rapids Ahead :
Go into the specific subreddit for the profession you’re writing about, and just watch how they talk to one another. For example, if you’re writing about a primary care doc, hop onto r slash familymedicine

Also write what you know applies to emotions as well. Someone may not know the stress of a workplace but they know the stress of school and the two are really similar feelings at their core a work project is just like a school project

Watching your videos lifted this decade long fanfic writing block that I’ve had and couldn’t shake, it’s such a good feeling. Thank you! 💜

if I'm writing about a real life place I haven't been to before I like to pull up street tour videos on YouTube and just describe what I see

what makes me feel better about writing fanfics, is that most people don't really care. I can bullshit through a job with vague descriptions and no one will say a word🥹🙏

the funniest thing is that English isn't my first language so I'm looking at how to do Sazerac goggle translating everything so i can write it so it looks like the character is doing it. AND I'm a minor so I have no idea about alcohol ❤️

I find this same difficulty when it comes to considering writing anything that includes therapy lmao, because I have never been to therapy and I’ve obviously never earned the qualifications and gone through that process of learning all about emotions etc, though I’ll definitely try and consider this tip if there’s any therapy related shows I find. 🥹

Craziest thing about doing research is that the search history will become concerning to people who don’t know the context 😭😭😭

I just wanna say I’ve seen so many “helpful” writer creators on this app and they are either so hostile or both hostile and have terrible odd takes that they don’t explain. And I just think that you do a wonderful job at being sensitive to new creators and creators in general and that you are absolutely helpful. & great job ❤️
