Summary
When focused on modern notions of romance, shipping contains a great many Anglocentric and modern-centric assumptions. Crucially, some of these assumptions may actually inhibit the writing of interesting stories.
In this essay, the author sets forth seven alternate ways to handle a flawed relationship in fiction, and invites fellow writers to consider the possibilities of stepping outside the comfortable modern paradigm.

Grammar, Spelling, Formatting, and Other Such Difficulties When Writing Fanfiction by Lynchie
Fandoms: No Fandom

Summary
Hello dear reader! This work is not a fic, but rather intended as a helpful guide to whomever may benefit.
As self published amateur writers with no professional editors (and often none at all!), it’s no surprise to anyone that fanfiction is often prone to spelling and grammar mistakes. I’ve seen them, you’ve seen them, we’ve all seen them in our journeys across the pages of AO3, Fanfic.net, LiveJournal, or the scrap paper in the bottom of your bag.
Dear reader, the author does not wish to shame or reprimand anyone who’s made these mistakes, why, the author themselves has made them many a time! Instead view this as a helping hand for when you require it. Sometimes all we need is a cheat sheet for us to refer back to.
Which is what this work aims to be! A cheat sheet, a guide, a helping hand covering a variety of things author (and friends!) have noticed when reading fanfic. Use this as a handy dandy resource to refer back to in times of need.
Good luck, and happy writing!

Summary
There is a big difference between a trans man exploring his identity/sexuality through fanfiction, and a cis writer misrepresenting what it means to be FTM. If you're a cis writer with the best of intentions, I hope these guidelines and resources will assist you in improving your treatment of trans men.
Chapter 1: Writing Guide, FTM Anatomy.
Chapter 2: Gallery of Trans Men.
Chapter 3: FTM Media Recommendations.
Chapter 4: Racism in Trans Headcanons.This guide was originally posted on my old account, which has since been deleted due to transphobic comments, including threats of violence. I have posted it again anyway, because I take this matter very seriously. Do not repost, copy, or in any way plagiarise this guide. But please feel free to share a link to it, so that cis authors can improve the way that they depict trans men. I have tagged characters which are discussed in the guide, and are therefore relevant. If you encounter this guide while browsing those tags, that's why.
