If you happen to write directly to the slave

1:- The changes will not be propagated to the master at all, unless you are configured as circular replication as said by Lee.

2:- If the the write is an insert to the slave your replication may stop if another inserts comes from master and violates any unique/primary key

3:- your master/slave will now be holding different data and someone in future has to scratch his/her head to figure out why the values are different.

writing directly to slave is only suggested as a last resort where you have to fix the broken replication.
