Brief Background

At the time of writing I have only been recently introduced to fan fiction. I was aware of the concept but shied away from it in the same way most normal people would shy away from spiders the size of dinner plates, being a strict adherent to Sturgeon's Law (90% of everything is bad). Due to the endearing persistence of some of my peers, however, I eventually checked out one or two recommended fics and was quite pleasantly surprised.

I've never been used to writing fan fiction because it always felt like I was taking someone else's action figures and systematically tossing them out windows and through wood chippers, and it doesn't help that I generally have zero sense of plot progression. No, really. None. I've written two unpublished books and several short stories but the progression of those are ridiculous and over-the-top because frankly I was just making it up as I went along. It was like trying to finish a Connect-The-Dots puzzle but every ten seconds someone smacked you across the face with a kayak paddle, so you kind of just give up and just string meaningless events together in no particular order.

I've been improving little by little, although being a very detail oriented person it usually takes me four or five hours longer than it should for me to publish something, usually because I spend that time rereading every little thing and rewriting, adding, or cutting parts out.
