Imagine an "AA" style meeting and I stand before the group:
Hi, my name is cyscoe. (Hi, cyscoe.) I'm a 38 year old working mom who would still rather watch cartoons than "grownup" television. I'm a HUGE Kim Possible fan. I just can't get enough of some of the writers at fanfiction.net
Everyone, no matter what their age, has to have some escape from this world that we live in. Mine is dropping in at this website daily to get my fix.
I try to leave reviews but it is hard to get past the opening lines of some chapters because I'm a stickler certain things. If I've reviewed an author, rest assured that the following did NOT happen (or happens very seldom) in his/her writing.
What I don't like -
SELF-INSERTION FAN-FICS - warn a person when you've created a new character. And when you do create that character, take a little time to describe him/her so I can "see" them.
ERRORS WITH GRAMMAR OR FORMATTING - folks, if you want to call yourself a writer, then take the time to learn the mechanics.
AUTHOR NOTES - keep them at the beginning or end - never in the middle, you're doing little more than breaking the flow of your stories
If an author wants an more info on how I feel about his/her writing, just drop me a line. Just keep in mind that I will be perfectly honest. |
