Thing No. 12

Feb 21, 2010 00:02

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 ( Read more... )

reviews, meme, fanfic

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 have never heard of sites like that, imagine that!! O_o I googled it while reading to see what would come up, and found out it EXISTS! I fell in even more love with the fic ^^

Since then, I check out the site as much as I can, and I posted it on facebook, too, and lots of my friends were interested ^^

Oh, snap, I'm sorry to hear about your headache problem. There's nothing to do about it, I guess :/

Dang. That's supposed to be Tell me a secret. *bangs head on the wall*

Anyway... really? XD It's cool you read this story then! Now you know something as lovely as that exists. ^__^ My friend has a book of it, and some of the secrets there are just so sad, or so funny. Here are a few of those I saved:

Wow, thanks! The first one made a very deep impression on me; I'm still all "People are all selfish assholes. I'm glad he never found out about it."

Geass is awesome ^^

I need to buy a book with those secrets. I want to post a secret of my own. :D

Yeah, and I felt really sad for most teachers too. A lot of them are hardly ever acknowledged. I'm just wishing that when I get to teach, at least one kid gives me an apple. XD That'd be enough for me. :D

My friend said that too, and he's really hard to impress. XD

Oh, you can send your own secret! Just get a postcard and write a secret on one side and mail it anonymously to:

PostSecret
13345 Copper Ridge Rd.
Germantown, Maryland 20874

I'd like to send a post secret too. Perhaps I'd add that to my Things to Do Before I Die. ^_^

Nicccce :)) Thanks for the info!

So, you're planning on becoming a teacher? If you ever teach me, I'll gladly give you a whole fruit basket :)) (no, not the anime or whatever :P)

I might be the only person who doesn't like that series :DD But I think it must be because I saw the anime, and never read the manga.

The characters in it annoyed me to hell :D

Hahaha! I actually like them, my top shoujo manga in fact. :D I'd love to off Tohru, though - never person can be that... that. -_-" I don't even know what to call her. XD
