It's that time of the year again, popping in before work for a "Happy Birthday Sakura!"
Already seeing good images both official and fanart this year.
Hello there! Is this merely a place to post pictures of Sakura Matou (who I am a very big fan of, by the way), or can we discuss Sakura Matou in words here?
Yes. For more details, check out the 1st post in the very 1st page.Originally Posted by The Name of Love

So, if I'm trying to find advice for depicting Sakura in a fanfiction story. Specifically, as a main character. I've found htat when I look at it, it's not often done well. I think it's because Sakura, while a very good character idea, wasn't shown from a first-person perspective in the visual novel. I also think she doesn'tdo that much, not even in her own route. The characters generally don't react to her so much as react because of her (i.e. they are motivated by her circumstance rather than being moved by things she does as a character). So the solution to Sakura is just have her act and have other characters react to her actions.
That said, I do want to hear from you guys. What advice would you give to an aspiring fanfic writer like myself who wants to write Sakura-centered stories?
I would advise you to look here first:

The fanclubs have generally devolved into a place to post fanart. You won't get much help here.
Tobias wrote a fic called Dear Tohsaka, that's basically a letter to Rin from Sakura, with two sequels. It's quite sad, but very good, and characterizes Sakura very well. That's the overall consensus at least: Dear Tohsaka
I've done something like this myself. If you want to have a look at it, though it's not written in the first person: Letters From Tohsaka: Fuyuki
The title is similar, but it was a coincidence due to some similar subject matter.
Likes attention, shiny objects, and... a ball of yarn?
