I am Lightning...The Rain Transformed

More and more explainations. I'm getting tired of them myself, to be honest.

Something big came up (something I'm not comfortable with explaining to the entire Internet), and I wasn't able to finish the chapters I was working on and update during August. I've also got to deal with my studies now, so writing is slowing down too.

I'll keep trying, and as I say, I keep working on my fics, even if one paragraph at at time. Each word I type brings me another word closer to completion.

I used to use this part of the profile for insulting bad things, but now, I think I should use it for more nice things. As in, tips for your own fanfiction- hell, fiction in general.

The Many Tips and Tricks, as told by a somewhat average yet mildly interesting author

Tip Number One: Grammar. Spelling. Correct use of upper case and lower case. Paragraphs. Do you think people like seeing massive lumps of words crammed together? Do you think people like seeing incorrectly spelled words? Do you think people like reading words written like "i'M fUcKiNg StuPid, pLZ ReViW I hVE iSuses" and with no paragraphs?

Tip Number Two: No author notes in the middle of a fic, leave them for the beginning and end. That really breaks up the flow. It's okay if used in a comedy fic, but otherwise, no. And then, they shouldn't be in author note form, but as proper writing.

Tip Number Three: Bad spelling and grammar ruins a good story, but good spelling and grammar won't save a bad one. Ensure your idea is interesting and original.

Tip Number Four: Enjoy yourself. If you don't enjoy writing the fic, you'll think of it as a chore, and lack in updates. Yeah, that happens to me sometimes.

Tip Number Five: I know it's annoying when no one reviews, but urging people to review often comes across as pathetic. So try replying to reviews when you get a few, or put things in the authors notes to encourage people talking about the fic. And for that matter, bonus tip- don't write any of that "bad summary, read for yourself." I can't fucking stand that.

Tip Number Six: Try not to appeal to mindless masses. If you get some idiot screaming at you to make a certain pairing (seriously, when someone fills an entire paragraph just by repeating the pairing, ignore the wanker), or change your storyline for their sake, tell them to fuck off. But if they're not an idiot, and they're raising a valid point, think about it. And if you find yourself writing out of instinct, when the characters are directing you, and showing you how they'd act and react, that's good, and it's often a sign that you have a good fic going there.

Everything seems so different from the world of being nice to people. Don't worry, I'll be a bastard again in a few moments... go suck off a goat, mpreg writers.

Yeah, I'm back.

Gamabunta realised Yondaime's last wish would not be accepted by the villagers, and so gave the baby Naruto to befriend toads, summoned or not. COMPLETELY RE-WRITTEN, IF YOU READ IT ONCE, READ IT AGAIN!

Perhaps LightningHunter's best yet. AU where Naruto used brains over brawn. Where he could deduct in less then seconds and became a legend, not a nutcase in a jumpsuit. Naruto is slightly based on Sherlock Holmes, not a crossover. Naruto will leave Konoha

10. LightningHunter's Parody of Abused Naruto Fics reviews
LightningHunter laughs at all authors who like to feature villagers beating the crap out of Naruto daily. A Naruto who isn't immune to getting drunk because of Kyuubi, isn't hated by the council,and definitely isn't turned on by an insane Hinata.

11. Two Sons Who Are Older Then You WTF! reviews
I compared your medical results, and it seems you three are very, closely related. In fact, it would seem that Naruto travels into the past, where he sleeps with your mother on different occasions, and she gives birth to you two, Itachi, Sasuke."
