Also, if you're like vintagenotebook and you do any harsh criticism to my stories and back me up against a "wall". I'll be like Kevin Levin (Ben 10), Chef Gordon Ramsay, Lelouch, Kyoya Hibari, Destiny's Barbatos. And I'll be all over you like a bad virus. Yes, the gloves comes off. So you better check your ego at the door, as I ain't gonna tolerate any less than par critism.

2nd of all, I only do it to the viewers of that particular series. It's not for everyone.

I think it helps people get a moer vivid imagination of the character. As long as they don't butcher the original character and stuff.
Plus, It helps some let out emotions through writing, I guess.

Is there two characters you are dying to see as a couple?
Ever wonder what characters do behind the scenes?
Alternate ending?
Entertainment? (As well as self entertainment)
Maybe the manga-story-tv show- or whatever u are watching doesn't give u enough info? Or just isnt long enough?
Or maybe u just feel like writing a story and are too lazy to think of characters?

For one to answer this question, one must answer the question:
What is fanfiction?

Then you carefully scan your answer and thoughts:
Is this definition of fanfiction for me? Does it reflect myself? Has fanfiction done any good for you?
Those were a series of questions that let you undergo MEDITATION or REFLECTION.

For me...
Fan fiction is re-creating what you love and cherish in your own way reflecting your understanding and love for what you are re creating.

So one writes fan fiction for leisure and enjoyment or one writes this to show there way of the story.

Well, purely for enjoyment, but I do have other reasons.

It's good practice, both for writing, and for plot development, first off. You can focus more on this, since it's a fanfic, everyone who reads it SHOULD know the characters.

Also, it's a good way for me to train myself in keeping characters IN character. Yeah, they might become OOC a bit, but keeping them true to how you think that type of person would react in a given situation? That's tough to do sometimes, and fanfic is a good way to work on it, and get feedback.

I also write so I can see the cast in different situations. I tend to ovoid writing OC's because of this. Recently I've really gotten into crossovers, and stories that would possibly work withing the cannon because I just want to see what would happen, or maybe get an insight into what they'd be thinking. I guess I think about it way too much....

Because one enjoys the perversiveness of people in their likings to go together and create more bacterium.

fan fiction is what should have been and could have been, but actually never got to be . . .

Shrieks with joy as my imagination runs wild!

Fanfiction is one of the best forms of literature for anyone from any fandom. It allows the fans to give each character a certain flavor or depth that can only be felt as a fan. Fanfiction is able to change one's views about a series, sometimes about certain things in life if its well-written. It is a way to escape realty and live in a world that you admire so. Just like when you write original stories, fanfiction is a way to let out your emotions that you may have bottled up inside all this time.

Well, one might as well say that you can change the flow of the main story. Like have a "Final Mix" (if you will).

ie;

Ace = died in the manga or anime

your POV

Ace = gets rescued in time by his brother; Luffy

---

Well, that's what I do in deviantart :D. While I don't draw, I only convey it through stories.

It may sound stupid, but I write some fanfics to see how certain characters play out. Like, what would they do in this situation or how would they react to this character.

I write fan fiction because even though I enjoy the anime and the characters within it, I'd still like to see them in other situations that you wouldn't expect or you just wouldn't see in an actual anime. I know the fan fiction I write would at best, be a small omake section at the end of a show.

I enjoy writing fanfiction for the challenge of trying to create a unique story with characters that already have personality foundations. Besides, sometimes taking a familiar character and then throwing them in a totally unlikely scenario with outrageous reactions can be a lot of fun. So far I've written fan fics for Skip Beat on a different site and I love it a lot. It's a great break from writing original work once in a while.
