Using Fanvideos as Inspiration for your Fanfiction
The first time I saw a fanvid (a video made by a fan to show their love of a TV show, movie, etc.), I think my reaction was probably much like the first time I discovered there was such a thing as fanfiction:
“Wow, this beautiful piece of art was made by a fan??”
Since then, I think I’ve developed sort of a love/hate relationship with this thing known as a fanvid. I love them because when they are good (and so many of them are), they can bring out a myriad of emotions in me from laughter to tears. Yet I also hate them because they are much like chocolate to me and I can never watch just one. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve looked up at the clock only to find that an hour has just gone by and all I’ve done is watch fanvids.
Recently though I’ve discovered something quite useful about fanvids; and that is their ability to help me write fanfiction. At first it happened by accident – I would watch a few videos in a particular genre or about my favorite character and suddenly I would find myself busily typing away at a fanfic soon after. Once I realized the power of the fanvid however, I started to use it purposely and had some great results.
Writing a particularly action-packed scene in your current fic? Find a few videos to match the mood and watch how fast your fingers fly across the keyboard.
Got a really emotional scene that you need to sink your teeth into? Just pull up a few sad fanvids and soon you’ll be wiping away your tears…while writing that pivotal scene.
If you’re stuck on a story or just can’t seem to get in the mood after a long day at work or dealing with those other issues known as “real life”, a fanvid can be the perfect way to get yourself back into the mindset you want.
Here are a couple examples of some fanvids I’ve found inspiring to my work:

Hey folks!
I’d like you to check out a guest post from Laura Glenmore, all about how to avoid writing a “Mary Sue” (for a full definition of this term, as well as any other fanfic terms, please see my Fanfiction Glossary).
I know I myself have cowered at the thought of adding a female OOC to any story, just out of fear of inadvertently creating a Mary Sue. Whether you’ve had the same worries, or have never even heard of a Mary Sue, I encourage you to check out Laura’s post. It’s vital reading for fanfiction writers everywhere.
Fanfiction Writing Tips: 5 Ways to Avoid the Dreaded “Mary Sue”
a guest post by Laura Glenmore
She’s exotically beautiful, talented, skilled and destined for greatness. Introducing the Mary Sue (or Gary Stu for male characters). She/he is, all in all, one step short of perfect. Or might already be.
Perhaps the most outstanding quality in a Mary Sue is her lack of flaws. Authors highlight their importance in the story by giving them as many positive attributes as possible. Other characters become overwhelmed by their beauty, wit and power. No one can really beat or compare to them.
Sound familiar? Perfect heroines have been in fanfiction since the beginning of time. If you’re starting to think that your OC might be one, don’t worry just yet. Not every character with a remarkable amount of great traits is necessarily a Mary Sue (MS). Writers can avoid this label by creating a believable back story that explains the positive traits.
However, if the trait appears out of thin air without any natural development, you’re looking at a MS. The attribute is given just to make the OC stand out. It lacks any personal growth and there’s no real justification as to why they’re like that.
Mary Sues are normally an idealized version of the author. So it’s up to you to make your characters as believable as possible. Here are a few useful tips to help you achieve it:
