mcfly-slash ... Who you gonna run to?
okay, so here i am again. after a saturday of getting a taste of lindsay lohan's lifestyle (minus shagging harry judd unfortunately), a sunday of feeling rotten and a monday of fall out boy, i am back to the lifestyle of a writer. and back to drama-mood since i'm obviously much better at writing drama than at writing fluff. and i'm bringing you
( Read more... )
thank you so much for all the compliments, you really made me all warm and fuzzy! and i honestly never knew i wrote with an accent. i didn't even know that was possible. i consider myself actually quite good when it comes to speak and understand and even write english but my weakest point has always been grammar. i can't do it in english, french or german (which is a shame since i am, in fact, german)
well, i mainly didn't go into details about harry and dougie's night together because i can't write sex-scenes to save my life. but then, it just didn't fit with the story anyway. i am much more a fan of saying things without saying them i guess.
you know, if you like my writing so much, you can have a peek through my journal. it's just a writing-journal so there's only stories in there. but before i got into mcfly i wrote simple plan slash, dunno if you'd like to read that. without bragging or anything, but some of my bestest stories are among the simple plan one's.
anyway, thanks again for that wonderful comment!

Accent may be the wrong word. I just mean that there are a few things that German (or French, Spanish, Chinese,...) people sometimes do: the order they use for certain words, or a phrase that is correct, but not what a native speaker would say or write. You can probably tell German that has been written by someone who isn't German.
Example: you wrote i consider myself actually quite good when it comes to speak and understand and even write english, and an English speaker would be more likely to write i actually consider myself quite good when it comes to speaking and understanding and even writing English. Why? It's as hard to explain as why one says machen die Tur zu instead of machen die Tur an... It's just the way it is. :-)
With saying things without saying them in mind, here's something you might like to think about. Imagine writing this story again, but so that Harry never tells what he feels about Dougie - maybe he doesn't realise, or maybe he doesn't want to admit it - yet it's so obvious that the reader is practically shouting, "you love him, you idiot!" What would you need to do differently? Might be fun to try that, sometime.
Anyway, hope to see more stories from you. :-)

you know what? that is a kick arse idea! i think i'll really try it. not with this story tho, with a completely new one or something.
