rangers or what do you do to get started?

Notepad, Wordpad... anything that displays text. :-)

I used notebook paper when I started my first series, due largely to boredom
in Study Hall. ;-)

Now, I can't keep ideas in my head that can amount to anything worthwhile.

Really, all you need to make a fanfic is any sort of wyrd processor.
saving the item as .txt will allow it to be shared easily as a Simpletext
file. Just remember that you need to hit [Enter<-] or [Return<-] after
each line (whichever you have) so that the lines don't go off into
infinity.

You'll want to avoid making it a normal WP file because sharing it at all
will just make it messed up. TXT is the easiest, and takes up the least
amount of space.

Any good word processing software will do. Especially if it has a good spell
check.

Personally, my fanfics, with the exception of Somewhere Over The Youth Center,
started in my mind while watching Power Rangers. It started with the first
episode, and slowly evolved over time. It took me four years to take a
character I initially just called Brain, aka the Chromium Ranger, who
controlled Dragonzord and Titanus, and turned him into Brian Crowmeowme, Silver
Ranger, master of the Raptor's Egg, the Pegasus Thunderzord, the Cheetahzord,
and the Eaglezord.

I haven't written any fan fiction, but I write essays in Microsoft Word.
An e-mail program is good, because you can save it as a draft and it can
be easily sent to archive submission addresses.

Most people use their computer.

Indeed. So you can type it up in TXT and learn HTML to code it... or you
can do what I do for my PR fics, after spending all day with Raw HTML for
Marvel X. I use... Microsoft FRONTPAGE!

And I've NEVER had any problems. :)

Heh. I don't use any of that. I just use plain old Microsoft Works 3.0.

Yep, that's how I started up. In between classes, during classes, used
up quite a bit of paper. Of course it was all pure and utter crap
(trust me, you'd regret reading it!), but my writing's evolved since
then.
