OC Description

Fanfic Peeves

{Submitted by SappireBlueS}

 

 

As well all know, the lead girl is supposed to be a fictional girl and usually, the author expects us to relate well to the character and so on.

However that can often be corrupted when the author adds weird detail and I think this is mainly when the writing is in 2nd person.

 

For example, there may be something written like this:

"You're fingers slid into his hand and he held onto it securely, marveling at the pretty birthmark on your pinky finger"

 

The specific detail is about the birthmark and for some readers, it would be like, whoa what the hell, I don't have a birthmark on my finger!

 

To add on to that, it seems that whenever a character is described, the ulzzang picture that is supposed to be them, kind of ruins it. Firstly, if you're writing about an average looking girl and a reader sees a visual of literally the most beautiful looking creature ever, it's not the best thing.

Chapter 27: I have two friends who are scared of thunder and they would cling onto me whenever the thunder starts roaring. Honestly it's a bit annoying cause I personally find the sound of thunder and rain really calming. LOL I'm so weird XD
