It's kind of you to write to them in this much detail, but I'd be so intimidated if I received one of these during a fic exchange. It'd feel like the expectations coming from someone who put this much time into writing a guide to what they wanted would be way higher than I could write for.
That's probably just me though. Hopefully they'll find it useful and not a cause for concern.
For this exchange and a few other exchanges, writing letters to the writer is part of the community. There is a post in the community where we link our letters in case our writer wishes to have more information to work off of, so this is not something out of the norm. The only thing writers need to include are the requested characters. Everything else is optional, and I go into this knowing that! Some writers like to know more about what their recipient likes. This is for writers like that.
That makes more sense. It's just a personal thing, but it'd still make me think 'Crap, this person really knows what they want already. I probably won't live up to these expectations.'
If it wasn't part of the exchange and someone wrote a huge letter to me, I would definitely be intimidated! (and possibly weirded out too) But it's sort of like a tradition for this exchange. Not everyone does it, but I appreciate it myself when my recipient provides me something more to go off of so I know I don't end up writing something they wouldn't like.
I was so sad after watching the series when I discovered there is barely any Chihayafuru fic, ahhhhhh! ;____; But oh Taichi, my heart just goes out to him. And hehe, silly eyebrows~
I've yet to read the manga. I bet once I start, I won't be able to stop. Ooooh, you were inspired to write Chihayafuru fic? Did you end up writing any? I so very much wanted to write a Chihayafuru fic too, but in the end, I never did. |D;;
That's the feeling I got too, that the end pairing will be Chihaya x Arata. I usually root for the megane too, or the black haired dude, and Arata is both. But oh Taichi...
