How to get started as a newbie?
I've been reading fanfiction for as long as I can remember, but always wanted to try writing it. Thing is, as the title suggests, I'm completely new to this and I don't know where to begin.
I'm interested in dabiling on:
-OCs
-AUs
-poetry
-canon compliance
-canon characters being in-character
-interesting (romantic) dynamics (I feel this would be the most difficult)
-sexually explicit content
-so much more that isn't coming into mind at the moment
I just don't know where to start, how to plan it, and generally write out a start/middle/end when it comes to it if that all makes sense?
edit: this goes for writing dialogue and know when to do paragraph breaks too because I'm not sure how to get around that too
