A real great article about web serials just dropped. I've always been curious about the shape of the web serial world outside of the few I know and this really helps elucidate it.

What's the step-by-step guide to writing a modestly received Wormfic with maybe 3-5 regular readers and no comments!!!!!

Oh this is an easy one. I could honestly tell you this in one sentence: write something original. However, in the interest of really destroying any chance of getting a popular worm fanfic out of your writing, let me give you my step by step guide.

Come up with an original character. Whether this is an under utilized worm character or an OC doesn't matter.

Set it somewhere other than Brockton. Even moving it as little away as Boston and you're fucked.

Have a style. Are you, as a writer, capable of putting in even the modicum of your own flair? Well your readers are going to fucking hate it. It's hard to churn through words when they have to go back and double check what you're written.

Give the women agency. Self explanatory really.

Never update. Trust me on this one.

Follow these steps and you'll have a story with a cumulative six readers that will be hailed as the best thing this fandom has ever produced five years after you left it.
