But be careful when you write, and always remember the the three E's: edit, edit, and edit. It's always a great idea to send a fanfiction to a friend for critique and ideas. I find myself always asking friends for advice, and them asking me in return. ^_^

One thing you've gotta watch out for is writers block. Ahh! It's a HORRIBLE thing that is SOO hard to avoid!! But there are a few things to do to avoid it, and to rid of it. If you're trying to avoid it, I recommend laying out the stories plot *before* you start writing. That way you know where the thing is going.

But if it still sneaks up on you, there are a lot of things you can do to rid of it. You can try to relax by switching projects, or stopping and reading a favorite fanfiction classic. Sometimes by reading other people's work, you get ideas! But I've found the BEST thing to do is ask a friend about it. They can *always* help! Who knows, they just may give you the idea that'll get you rolling! ^_^ And NEVER, EVER forget to write an idea down the SECOND you get it! You have NO idea how many brainstorms I've lost because of bad memory! But even though so many obstacles threaten your story, never lack confidence and creativity. When you pour you heart into it, what you get back is well worth the work.
