Story Writing Help

I am wanting to to some fan fiction featuring my Argonian characters, but I am unsure of how to write it. I have three different character ideas, and was thinking of doing it three different ways. I was thinking of writing one of them from the point of a scribe, who is writing down the story while the Argonian is telling it afterwards. OR another idea was to just tell it from the Argonian's point of view, as it happens or maybe afterwards. But I'm unsure, any one got any hints or tips on how to do eso writing?

    go to the fanfiction dot net site and read some of the fanfiction that has already been written. You will see many levels of skillk, many approaches and a lot of creativity.

    If you are very un/lucky you will run into my stuff (I write there too).

    And my main main main tip is start writing. Keep writing, then write some more.
    Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
    Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
    Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
    Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.

    Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
    House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
    Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis

    Well, there are (at last count) 29 ESO based ES stories on the fanfiction site:

    https://www.fanfiction.net/game/Elder-Scroll-series/?&srt=1&r=10&v1=897

    i think the biggest subcategory of ES is currently Skyrim
    Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
    Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.

    I think you should write a story about a female argonian trying to make a loaf of bread in an oven......
