《The Ultimate Guide To Writing PJO Fanfics》Helpful Tips

. If Rick doesn't bring Jason back, he's going to get of angry fan mail.
Do not use cliches like "Then it went dark," and the evil step dad
Have Consistency. If a character dies, don't bring them into the story.
If you write a Chaos story, don't make Percy OP, change up some things, and no names like Alpha, Omega, Trident, Riptide, or Hurricane.
(If you need a Chaos Fanfic Percy Name, then just put one of his qualities into google translate, and translate them in Latin or Greek)
Hestia, Artemis, and Hera are maiden goddesses so they don't have children. You can have Hestia create a child out of the hearth, or from flames if you want to.
Heroes do NOT kill monsters and leave unharmed and not out of breath
It doesn't always have to be Percy who has a twin; What if Annabeth did?
The Big Three do NOT just go around having children all willy-nilly; There are the few and the proud who are their children.
Just a reminder, Hades technically didn't break the oath, as it was formed after WW2.
Percy may not be the smartest kid, but he knows things, can be goofy sometimes, (and oblivious), but he has a greater mental capacity than a 4 year old child.
Percy does like blue cookies, but people put of strain into that idea, so make up something like Percy the color red, or give him one of your own quirks.
I repeat, Percy is not an idiot, he knows things.
Everyone forgets Piper can speak French.
emphasis on words by using Italics and CAPITALS and underlining
(But don't use them on everything.)
Never forget about Tyson and Grover.
AVOID LONG NAMES. Any name that has more than 3 words is long to me so make sure there are no Katie Lipstick Beauty Mascara Faces in your writing.

Write clearly and use describing words
(Hey, why's the ground getting closer to my face?
USE SPELL CHECK AND GRAMMR CHECK SMTIMES WRDS MAAY NOT BE SPELLLED RITE
Avoid using texting language like Lol, 4 real? GTG Hey M8TE, 2 Fast 4 U, OMG!!
Do not use a million exclamation marks !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sometimes use a combination like !?!
Annabeth DOES have dyslexia, so I'm pretty sure that she doesn't read a lot of books. She may read some, but that must be hard for her, because in the sea of monsters, it was shown that she couldn't spell very well, and spelling and reading are hand in hand.
Seriously, Piper can speak French and absolutely no one writes fanfics where she can do that.
When making demigods, don't make their names about their godly parent. Avoid names like Storm and Tsunami.
Percy is not scarred from Tartarus.
()
Everyone forgets Nico went through Tartarus alone, and Percy and Annabeth had each other's constant support all the way. Plus, at least Percy knew what he was going to go through when he went down with Annabeth. Not to be a hater, but it would have been good for Percy's character development if he had to let Annabeth fall into the Pit. Percy hasn't made any real sacrifices. Everyone around him makes them for him. Think about it. That is his fatal flaw, his loyalty, where he would give anything for a friend. If Percy was given the choice between him dying or Annabeth, and if he dies, the world will fall apart, he will always choose for Annabeth to survive. Percy makes sacrifices in different ways than others. All of his choices have been made for him, everyone around him always has to sacrifice so much. Jason sacrifices being the leader, Annabeth sacrifices her mother's love, Nico sacrifices a lot to be that close to Percy without telling him his secret. Not to be mean, but Percy to make a real sacrifice, a real choice, for himself. None of his choices have been real. Giving Luke the knife, falling into the Pit for Annabeth, they all were split second decisions. Percy's time is coming soon, and he will need to sacrifice something.

Dungeons & Demons
*!* This story is currently being continued on a different page, following years of hiatus and extensive rewrites *!* Please follow the link to read the up-to-date version: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/53863/cycles-of-ruin Basil von Doom is a powerful dungeon keeper with a simple mission: to bring ruin and destruction upon civilized worlds at the height of their decadence and stagnation. Much like his father before him, the new master of House Doom is a prodigy of war, yet the venerable minions of his household still hold strange loyalties toward his missing ancestor, silently comparing the legendary rage of his father to the more pragmatic approach of the son. Adding to Basil’s frustrations is the lack of accomplishment he feels for his work, with the dungeon keeper often taking on handicaps just to give his enemies a fighting chance. With all the power and wealth one could ever dream of already within his grasp, Basil now finds that the achievements of others kindle more joy in his heart than his own crushing victories. Thus Basil has taken up mentoring the next generation of dungeon keepers to try and diagnose the cause for his own lack of passion. With his apprentice, Elnora, managing most of the daily work around the dungeon, Basil can finally turn his attention towards his personal concerns, such as tackling the shadow of his legendary father that still looms large over him.
