Info This account was made for the only purpose of reviewing. In an age where anything can be submitted to this site from Mary Sues to novels and most reveiews R tYped LieK THis and mostly consist of "OMG!1! WHAT AAWESOME STORY"I feel that fanfiction needs some serious help. There is almost no more critique coming out of reviews and most people don't even try to help make a story better. I try not to be like that. I am one of those mean people who always does my best to tell the truth. If your story is horrible I will tell you. I am not a Flamer. I will always tell you what you did (In my opinion) wrong and how you can make your story better. Even if it is to completely scrap it, because sometimes there is nothing you cando to savea story. Feel free to explain or debate with me over what I say. It is your story and I am only human. I would be glad to hear if there is some reason why you did something. I am also a firm believer in: There is always something you can do to make a story better. Even if it is to simply spell check. Everyone makes mistakes. Also read the story over many times. Spell check won't pick up everything. Major writers always read over their stories many times before they publish it. There is no reason to not do that with fanfiction. Even better yet, try to get a beta. By letting one person read over your story it can help cut down on stupid little mistakes that spell check won't catch. There is many comunities on livejournal in which you can finda beta and I am almost always willing to be one. Just email me and 9 out of 10 times I will say yes. Reviewing I read alot of fanfiction but I only review for two reasons, If I really enjoyed the story or if I think the story really needs help. I guess I'm just lazy. Mary-Sues &Gary-Sues/OC My issue on the the above is that, to be frank, Mary-Sues are HORRIBLE. They are the bane of fanfiction and are a waste of writing talent. Instead of making up an all powerful character that everyone falls in love with, why don't you take that imagination and create a new plot line? Original Characters however are a different story, literally. If the OC is written in a convincing way and the plot of the story is good, chances are I will like it. Fandoms Basically everything. I mostly read anime, though. I also perfer shonen-ai to hetero couples. Contact Information Despite if I sound mean, I am actually a very friendly and open-minded person. I can be reached at livejournal with the user name of seventh_c or using the e-mail address above. Live long, and prosper! | |||||
