Laws of Writing:

ALWAYS use correct grammar and spelling
—This is perhaps the most sacred law of writing and it really gets on my nerves when this law is broken.
—Any fanfiction that violates this law is deemed unreadable and unworthy of reviews (unless it's to tell the offending author to correct his/her mistakes).

ALWAYS keep the plot consistent
—Everything in a story needs to fall in order: personalities, events, timeline, habits, and abilities.
—Don't make a character OOC (Out of Character) to the point that the character is unrecognizable unless you add a component to the story that explains the personality change.

ALWAYS go into detail
—Believe it or not, writers are artists. The pencil/pen/keyboard is your paintbrush and the paper/document manager is your canvas. Make your words powerful. Make sure your reader can feel the emotion of the scene.

NEVER rush the plot
—Now it's not even a story: it's just an outline of what your story is.
—Do this, and your readers assume that your heart isn't in the story.
—Later on, you'll be wishing that you hadn't rushed it because now you have to fix the jumbled mess that has become your story.

NEVER give too much power to a character
—Where is the character development if the character can't fight with his/her own strength?
—No one wants to read about a Mary Sue/Gary Stu (See the next law for more details)
—Nakagami Armor (Fairy Tail)—Really, Hiro Mashima? Allowing Erza to break the laws of magic so she could defeat Minerva? That's cheating and you know it!

NEVER create a Mary Sue/Gary Stu OC (Original Character)
—Nobody wants to read about the "most perfect, most attractive, and most talented OC" in the fandom. (I think I just gagged as I typed that)
—Not only is this kind of OC unrealistic, it's too BORING!
—In the words of one of my OCs (See if you can identify which one!): "Where is the drama? Where is the flair!" Who wants to read about an OC that can get the person he/she wants without any competition? The lack of action and the excessive supply of perfection will make your readers vomit.

Update timing
—Publish or update when you know people will be awake to read it.
—For authors in the USA, avoid publishing late at night: most of the English-speaking world will be asleep if you choose to do this.

LOVE
—True love doesn't happen immediately. "Love at first sight" encounters rarely end in happily ever afters.
