My Findings
A Fan Fiction Writer's GuideI... uh... just saw an advertised story *cough* not going to mention which one *cough* where Sehun's entire personality, what he does, his interests, and his past is laid out in a profile.
An EFFING PROFILE.
I would think it would be more fun to reveal that through a story! That's what they are! Not just something that comes after a profile.
Think about it.
Folklore and such was passed down from generation to generation by verbally telling people. They didn't write it down.
So tell me, do you think that they gave a huge profile on everyone to "set the scene?"
Eff no!
I mean, it's kind of hard to compare folklore and fan fiction, but it's the same general idea.
And yeah.
So please, no profiles unless you're giving their weight.
Otherwise, there is no use.
I promise, it IS possible to write a story without a profile.
Published authors do it all the time!
And see where it got them? It got them to publish more books WITHOUT profiles.
Anyway... enough of my babbling.
