ANNOUNCEMENT!

[karilly]

I finally got to move all my fics to a new community angel_pen. Considering that my fics had been translated and posted once again without my authorization, I decided to make the community moderated and my fics will be locked a few days after being posted for now. Thus if you want to join, please leave a comment hereI'm very sorry for the ones who just

Comments

it's too bad that i friended you just recently,but i'd love to be friends with you,you seem like a nice person♥♥♥/that is if you don't mind.

of course,i'd like to join your comm,i am actually in the middle of reading Because You Were the One I Was Waiting for,so count me in!:D

[karilly]

Of course I don't mind ariane ^^ I just wanted to leave the chance to all of you to decide since some really added me only for my fics :) I'll glad let you in my f-list then :)

Oh good luck with finishing my little monster lol Hope you enjoy~

[yanyan18]

i was actually disappointed when you announced that you're going to move your fics into a new comm.my first reaction was...damn!i'm in the middle of reading this awesome long fic and...what a cliff hangerDD: then i read abt people posting your fics w/o your permission and now i understand why.these people clearly don't get how writers like you are stressing over your stories just to make readers happy.that's just plain disrepectful:/ //ends rant

[karilly]

hmmm maybe I should have taken more time to move everything :p So my cliffies could be efficient, especially since all my meanest ones are in BYwTO xD jk~
well those things happens. I'm just trying not to be too angry since I don't want to have negatives feelings because of those people but it is kinda upsetting especially since I used to always believe that I'd never lock my fics. I didn't see the point to do so. And in the end, it won't even fix the problem since one can still do it and I can't just expel all my members afterwards.
But I guess it just gave me the little trigger I needed to win over my laziness and actually launch that new comm since the main purpose is actually to separate my RL and my fics, given that now I locked them so most of my friends are only here for fics and probably don't care much about my personal stuff, the same way I don't want to share it with just anyone :) I actually made the comm a while ago but only got to finish everything the other day lol
And I talked too much /shot

[yanyan18]

that was definitely the most frustraing cliff hanger i've encountered to date.xD/now,i'm excited to continue where i left off.

tbh,when i first discovered akame and started reading fanfics,lurking then eventually stumbled upon locked fics...i'm irked cause what's the point of writing it and posting it on comms when it's locked,you're just leaving readers unhappy and disappointed.that was when i was clueless abt plagiarism and all that jazz.but now,i'm enlightened.i'm definitely sympathizing on those writers who are shedding tears and effort just to be plagiarized by some lowly people.

making new comm is a good idea,you'll prevent unconcerned people from nosing on your personal life:)

/you can talk all you want,we're obviously on the same boat.lol

[karilly]

lol but lucky you have the other parts waiting. I feel bad sometimes I made my readers really wait long even after such a mean cliffie... but I couldn't help the cliff hangers lol

[yanyan18]

yeah.cliff hangers are good cause they draw you more into the story.i hate cliff hangers cause i'm not patient enough to wait for a long time,i want my curiosity to be satisfied immediately.this is why i prefer reading finished multi-chaptered fics.seriously,waiting is definitely not my thing.lol

i totally understand those writers who want comments from their readers.somehow,comments add up to the sense of accomplishment and they remind you that your efforts are not put into waste.though demanding them straight face is kinda...irking?and comments will naturally come if your fics are good,right?so i don't think you'll ever have a problem with that~

yep,when i start talking,i can't find a way to stop/tho i'm totally awkward in rl

[karilly]

you know, the funny thing is that I'm like you. I'm usually a patient person but when I'm really into the story I really hate to wait and I feel like haunting the author lol But being an S myself, I can't help it... well it's easier to do it than being victim of it. So just like you, I usually prefer reading complete fics or at least ones that are upload more than once every 3-6 months. That's also why I'm always trying to update as soon as I can after a cliff hanger, when RL isn't too shitty that is

[yanyan18]

i don't dare open those incomplete fics even those where the author updates regularly.idk,i have this habit of immersing myself into the story to the point wherein i don't take notice of the time,i can't bring myself to stop for if i do my interest won't be the same again,for instance,i read blue orb's monster fic up to ch 27 then stopped when i saw that it's not yet complete.up until now,i haven't able to force myself to read it again.so yeah...my point is...when i read,i read like mad

[karilly]

sorry for the late reply. I was away for a few days ^^

I feel you! I don't even want to start blue orb's fic because I know I'll get frustrated waiting for the next updates. And also, I tends to forget after a while and I don't like it. I enjoy catching hints here and there in fics, remembering the previous events to link it with stuffs in the next chapters. And just like you I really get engrossed, that is when the fic allows me to :p, and I just can't stop until I reach the end. So no, you are not weird, or we both are XD
Yeah you told me about that which makes me curious about your writing :) But I can understand you worry. I don't think you'd fall upon those DNW. I'm also quite picky when it comes to the fics to read as I'm more of a writer than a reader not saying that I'm really good at writing but sometimes my writer mind is 'on' when I'm reading and I'll be like, I'd write it that way instead, which is a little annoying for me :( but till now, I don't think I've fallen into what I couldn't stand for even though I was afraid

[yanyan18]

Exactly,besides IHC has too many characters,i can't keep track.lol..yep,instead of just going through the next chapter,you need to refresh your memory of the story,it totally spoils the momentum.

don't set your expectations too high lol,i'm just testing if i can write my own stories,what i am sure of is i really want to do it,whether it is good or not?we'll see once i get to post it.

People tend to write what they like to read I believei hope so,cause it would be an utter hypocrisy on my part if i keep on criticizing others' works(inside my head,at least)when i can't do it right myself and my standard is quite high so i'm not sure if i can live up;_____

[karilly]

agree!! I'll wait for it to end or I won't fully appreciated the whole thing which would be a shame!

haha don't worry. I rarely set much expectations and just take things how they came if that makes sense lol but that doesn't prevent me from being curious~

well I guess that while experimenting different things in writing, you might come to like what u might have dislike once, because you'll write it the way that make it more acceptable in your eyes and I'm probably not making sense again lol. But it happened to me. For example, if you'd tell me a few months ago I'd write mpreg, I would have either laugh or told you you're crazy lol Not that I hate it but... I usually like keeping thing as realistic as possible with some little exceptions depending on the plot and there's absolutely nothing realistic with a man getting pregnant lol This is a big example but there are little things here and there that have probably changed the more I wrote, that maybe I didn't even notice. All that to say, in the end, I think you won't end up being

[yanyan18]

good 'cause there's nothing to expect xD
