Well...I WILL admit that I am a freaking know-it-all when it comes to this stuff and I am often concerned that I come off as hostile because of it. I'm just really, really eager to talk about comics and, I guess I also want to show-off and establish myself as someone who knows what they are talking about. You would run into disdainful long-time fans is horrible. There's this stigma on comics being hard to get into because of the history and the last thing we need is long-term fans who know the history to make the fandom hostile for new comers.
Well, B, you officially have permission to give me criticism from now on. I can't improve if I don't know what I'm doing wrong and while I will often see mistakes when I go over a posted story a few months later, it is never a garuntee. I'm never 100% on characterization and I'm desperately in love with run-on sentences. I think they can be a great way to show and chaotic and hurried state of mind, but they can also become cumbersome and difficult to understand. I kind of hate how short my stories tend to be. They are totally plotless and usually just two people having a conversation. I love Tony primarily because of his faults, they are kind of what makes him sympathetic in my eyes. If he was just some wealthly, brilliant alpha male with a perfect life, he'd be completely unlikable.
