Choose two fandoms to write for. Make sure that they can work together, for example, Doctor Who and Harry Potter work because the Doctor can go anywhere in his TARDIS and can turn up there, but Finding Nemo and Death Note wouldn't work so well because Death Note is about people and Finding Nemo is about fish. Also make sure the time lines match.
Make sure that there is a believable reason for your two fandoms to end up together. 'Harry went on holiday to Japan' is nowhere near as believable as 'a shinigami dropped their Death Note into the Hogwarts grounds'.
Choose which characters out of the fandoms you are going to use. Don't pick too many because if you have a lot of characters your story won't work as well.
Plan your story with a believable plot line which doesn't make any character act out of character.
Write your first paragraph as an introduction explaining how your fandoms came together. Try to include both fandoms in the first chapter.
Write regularly so that you don't forget what you have already written and cause plot holes in your story.
When you have finished, check through and make sure all of your characters are acting in character and that no canon is broken, unless you state in your summary that you will break canon.
Think of a good title for your story and post it on a fanfiction website.
