My Thoughts... on the TYPICAL plots out there...

 

 

Seriously.. This blog post would be slowly accumulating..

But first, I will be just stating a few typical plots which I can't stand...

 

 

 

For goodness sake.. Stop the Arranged Marriage thing..

(Sings: Hajima, Hajima..~~)

Come on, don't tell me, you can only write these kind of things??

 

 

Wonder why there's some AFF authors who are causing fandoms?

Their story plots are different and FRESH every single time!

Have your very own style~

 

 

 

Of course, I am not opposing against it, but please, at least, modify the IDEA and use your IMAGINATIONS and make it into a story plot which seems SPECIAL but yet FAMILIAR due to the MODIFIED TYPICALITY! >.<

 

 

 

Of course, I am not saying that my story plot is (that) good, but my readers do comment that they like the story. I do think that my story plots can't be really found anywhere as I do planning.

So, I am going to be highlighting to all that is reading this, PLANNING is important.

My friends plans their story plot really carefully before they write.

(eg. MYFOURKs, CharmingSmile)

 

 

 

Next, have something SPECIAL. 

For me, my language command is considered better than others and so I can be able to (you know), include Korean, Mandarin, Japanese phrases into the chapters and even provide TRANSLATIONS!

I looked around and NO ONE (Tell me if there is) who also adds on translations of phrases in their fanfics. 

*Note: Check the date whereby he/she register as a user on AFF before telling me so.*

 

 

 

And then, PARAGRAPHING.

Well, consider me someone striving for PERFECTION.

I really don't want to SQUEEZE my eyes and look at those condensed text in that one whole chunk of paragraph..

(Seriously, how on Earth can they be writing in 1 whole chunk and don't they feel that it's so straining to the eyes??O.o)

You know, maybe 2-3 lines spacing between each paragraphs like I am doing now would be good.

 

 

 

Since we are on the topic of "The way you Write", I shall mention, FONT SIZE.

Let's see.. If this whole blog post is in this font size..

 

 

Hi, you know, I really hate to see these small words here.....

This size then? Does it make any difference??

Typically this size.. I am like totally OMG!!

More commonly is also, this size... 

 

 

Are they trying to have a "Let the readers squint their eyes so they can become like BaekHyun???

If so, they did a really good job.. -.-

Isn't it? I really can't stand the small font size...

 

 

 

I am fine with pictures here and then in the fanfic, if your fanfic needs it, then by all means, put it in.

But if you DON'T, then please don't put it for the sake of putting it.. -.-

It cause the page to really LAGS...

Especially GIFs as well..

 

 

 

I don't mind the author 'speaking' in between the text, but too much is just.. too much.

Have it after the chapter ends (that would be best),

Otherwise, if you have the need to say something before the chapter starts and do a summarised one. (with a smaller font would be better as it wouldn't be distracting to the readers as well.)

Trust me, I studied COMMUNICATION. (All forms of Comunication skills like these, Written Communication is also taught)

 

 

Lastly, the TITLES~~

Take some time to think about it~ (:

 

 

Now, I shall share the typical plots that I see flowing all around..

I will soon share some good ones as well~ (:

You all might see familiar titles for the 'good' ones probably. (I really LOVE reading)

 

 

List of No-No Typical plots..

 

1. Arranged Marriage 

(I guess people are going to be SICK of it.)

Recently: FAKE MARRIAGE (??!! Just get married if you want, why is it a FAKE one?? O.o)

 

 

2.The Idol got you PREGNANT!!

(I don't mind if it's interesting, but there's really TOO MUCH out there.. )

 

 

3. "My Life as (whoever's) Wife.. Girlfriend.."

(Enough people.. TITLES...)

 

 

4. Super Powers

(Once again, I don't mind.. but ESPECIALLY EXO, let them lead a NORMAL life alright?

If not have a NICE PLOT alright?? XD)

 

 

5. Falling in Love with a Jerk, Cold blooded (guys)

Commonly: I see Kris, SeHun, MyungSoo, Kai, etc..

Recently: LuHan (??!!! I am like... Wae~~~?! How is this possible?!)

 

 

6. Girls joining male groups and becoming their members

Plot: Girl, sometimes more than 1, living with the rest of the male members and members fell in love..

 

 

7. Days with ARROGANT guys (Similar to point 5)

It's too typically, as I scroll through the "Latest updated Fanfiction" section, there's really a lot of these..

And they usually targets.. Kris.  (Oh my poor Kris)

Plot: Living with them, in the Same school, each other's childhood (friend, rather ENEMY), etc.

 

 

8. The Nerds and The Kingkas 

I know, it's cool but at least change the title to (you know) something related to your story, readers do judge a book by its' cover.

 

 

9. (Whoever Oppa) I Love You

Fine, we know who you love and it's just TOO obvious. (TITLE)

 

 

10. I am (Whoever's) Maid

Familiar isn't it? TOO familiar..

So ya, still that same thing, make it interesting by at least modifying the TITLE by a bit?

 

 

11. Rich guys (Idols) falling for a poor girl (you)

Haiz.... This is not another Boys Over Flower drama..

 

 

(Similar to Point 10)

12. Slavery

I am totally..

I saw this somewhere..

"I choose you to be my slave! Aniyo~ Shireo~"

-- Quoted from: (I forgot where it is because I am busy with face-palming myself)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Okay, it's getting late..

I got to sleep, thanks for reading this, and do feel free to comment and share with me your thoughts as well~~

I will update more soon and also, I will upload a list of recommendations~

story is not just about marriage thing
story is about drama in life

fanfic for me is to explore life
so don't just focus on 1 plot or same story line~!
