I wanna work in a hospital now.

I've read two stories at gurabite now and both have irritated me. The one is a good kind of irritation, because it is the author's job to invoke some kind of emotion from the reader, and I'd like to beat the crap out of her OC. (Story is Daisuke by PurpleWolf. I just had to call her out on a few things.) The second irritation is not of the good ( Read more... )

rant, frustration, novel update

*shrug* You're talking about two *BADFIC* authors... what do you expect? I just read people's reviews now aday's before I give a story a chance, often that is rather comical :)

Especially on that horrible organ donation one, I just laughed at the reviews and clicked on :)

Meh. Reading reviews isn't always indicative of how good an author is. ;) But then we all know that so . . .

I'm feeling better now. It was aggravating to give that girl some advice then have her brush me off the way she did.

Ah well. Time for work. ^_^ The nursing home doth calleth my name.

I used to try to help badfic authors but I noticed that they don't really want help :/ they want to write badfic and other ppl cheer them on in that pursuit and it used to piss me off but now I just ignore it and move on.

Have a good day at work!

I did, I'm eating spaghetti now, and thank you. :)

As for trying to help bad!fic authors, I may just start getting mean in the review system. I don't like to be but if it gets the message across (ha ha).

Dicking around more with fanfiction? That sounds awfully familiar . . . -is rather guilty of it, too-

Maybe we should become writing buddies. lol

*pokes you* gently of course

Have you typed up Chapter 7 of Tenderness yet? ^_~

And I agree, part of being a writer is research *nod*

Hey, are you doing NaNoWriMo this year?

liana_bluestar October 6 2006, 02:43:26 UTC

To both questions, no. I want to finish Chapter Eight first to Tenderness and I have too many WIPs to start something for a writing comm. I wish I could but time simply isn't going to permit it for me.

On the subject of "anything within reason works in fiction" I've been reading stuff at this site for some time. Not even science fiction gets the honor of making stuff up as the plot demands.

liana_bluestar October 6 2006, 02:46:06 UTC

I believe it.

Hooray for glompage! ^_^
