Post Find Fan Fiction Writing Resources at Snitchseeker!

For those of you who haven't looked in Grimmauld Place's FF Rules and Resources Forum recently, there are several new features located here which are designed to help you write better fan fiction.

Recently added resources:

Games
Writing excercises like The Evil Elite FF Challenge and The GP Drabble Challenge are designed to keep you writing even if you don't feel like you're able to produce a lot at the moment. Sometimes we need to take breaks from writing our longer stories, and little excercises like this keep us sharp and thinking!

Snitchseeker Beta Readers thread
If you would like to have someone else read over your work before you post it, Beta Readers are standing by in this thread, ready to help you with your grammar, adherence to Canon, Britisms and other things you might like assistance with. PM one of the readers today to get an objective look at your writing! If you're a strong writer and would like to help others, here's where you sign up!

Characterization of Canon Characters
Haven't paid attention to Canon!Ron lately and need to know if you're portraying him properly? In this thread, you may discuss proper characterization of JKR's canon characters. If you're writing a fic and are not sure your Ron Weasley would do something you're making him do, check here to see what others say about him.

Original Characters
Creating a character and integrating him/her into the Wizarding World is sometimes challenging. Here is a thread where we can discuss different techniques for writing an Original Character.

OC Help- Names
Have you got a great story planned, but are having troubles coming up with a clever name for your original character? A few writers have stepped forward to offer help naming your characters. Come and ask for assistance here.

GP General Discussion
What do you like/not like to read about in Harry Potter Fan Fiction? What are some of the issues facing Fan Fiction writers today? Begin a discussion here.

Writing Resource Links
Handy links shared by/with other Snitchseeker writers can be posted/found here. Dictionaries, Thesauruses, language translators and more.



Of course, the regular features are here, as well.


The FF Rules: Updated every so often, writers should check on this list of rules and guidelines for new information. Any changes will also be announced in the..

Announcements for FanFics: Any changes or announcements from the Grimmauld Place staff will be posted here.

The Q&A thread: All questions about Snitchseeker Fan Fiction have been or will be answered here.

The Delete Thread: If you're not sure which FF Mod to contact about moving or deleting your Fan Fiction thread, you may post here to ask for Moderator action on your thread(s).

That's a great idea! I'll definitely check it out; it sounds very interactive and appeals to me, as a SS fanfic writer.

That means the characters from the books, as we know them from what Jo Rowling has written or said about them. (As opposed to how fan fiction writers have written about them in alternate universes, or as opposed to original characters created by fan fiction writers.)

As I've been following direct links to both my favourite ffs, I never spotted that. But that is awesome and i will go check it out instantly. This is brilliant. It will surely help me improve the ff that I'm planning to put up. You guys are geniuses. *Glomps* I you all.



Love,
