Thing No. 12

[crapdealer]

Day 12 → Whatever tickles your fancyI've been thinking of quitting FF.net for quite a long time now and because I can't arrive on a decision yet, I decided to sit back and let what I see for a month or so decide for me. But while I'm deciding, I'm reminded of some fanfic writers that are just so underrated that sometimes, when I'm feeling

EPIC POST IS EPIC

Epic post is epic

It's frustrating, 'no? There are moments when I'm in the mood to browse and I had to sift through a lot to get to a goldmine of a fanfic. I used to gauge how good a fic must be by the number of reviews, until I decided to hell with it after accidentally reading some fics that were just - I feel bad about this - so terrible that I reread my own works to get rid of it

Yes, she writes SasuNaruSasu, and her name is mylilchickadee. When I looked her up just now, I saw that she deleted a story that I didn't get to finish :(( (but at least she uploaded it elsewhere)

Gray Colored Happiness is one of the best things I have read in my life. (Too bad I feel it is somewhat unfinished... But I respect her decision to end it where she did)

And I'm becoming more tolerant towards grammar mistakes :D As long as there is a style. I realized it's just not worth it :P

I am currently (slowly) reading Tell me a secret, and I just love it ^^

Oh my, I've read her By His Side and I love it!

(... and then I remembered a multi-chap I'm working on and thought, oh snap, someone's done it)

I tried reading Gray Colored Happiness but when I got to the part where she starts using // or **, I stopped. -_-" Things like that in stories give me headaches, the literal kind, see. Whenever I try to read again, I see a couple of that and my headaches start again, so I just gave up. I'm kinda sad that I'm doomed not to read it. -_-

Attagirl! XD

Whee! I owe Nana-chan reviews on that still. It's hard to get me to review multi-chaps 'coz I want an unbothered day where I could read and review from chapter to chapter, or at least close to it, and I want so much to review Tell me a story because it's a wonderful piece of fanfic. Nana-chan deserves so much to know that her story is appreciated and loved. <3

I especially love how she incorporated Post Secret in the story (lj has communities like it, even a fandomsecrets that's updated everyday. :D LJ also offers feeds to the original Post Secret, which

I completely agree, though I must admit that I for one am an awful reviewer most of the time. On that note, I apologise for not reviewing any of your works lately, it's not that I don't like them I merely haven't read them because I switched fandoms recently XD So when I go back to the Naruto fandom I'll read them and give you an influx of reviews! 8D

However, there is one thing which I think authors must remember that is more important then reviews, while it is nice to recieve constuctive criticism and love for your work, authors should feel plain inspired to write more out of love of what they do and I often feel that a lot of authors forget that.

[crapdealer]

Tch, you and I both! XD I hardly review at all, and I know that what I said smacks of hypocrisy because of it. -_-" I review only for people I personally know won't bite my head off for saying anything, and for those writers whose stories just overwhelmed me that the awe outweighs the irrational fear

[eliteassassin]

XD it's fine and I must say I absolutely love your fire analogy, it really does fit exceptionally well 8D Plus with the description you used it was blatant what a good authoress you are to come up with that kind of analogy XD In fact, would you mind if I maybe one day steal it as like a writers Bible or something? I dunno, it just sounds really good and oh so true!

[crapdealer]

Ah, thank you. ^^;; And it would honor me if you do. ^___^

(hot damn, I feel so wise or something ~^^~)

[rainbowlemons]

Aw, this makes me feel so warm and fluffy inside. :)
It really means a lot, especially coming from one of my fave fanfic writers ;)

And yeah a lot of people are leaving ff lately. o_o
I guess it's fine, as long as I still get to read your awesome work. Hahaha :D

Re: T__T

[crapdealer]

Eh, you deserve it. ^_^

Haha! XD I plan to tell you guys first what I decide in the end, anyway. You guys here in LJ are my little circle of trusted friends. :D
