LJ user scatter_muse made this beautiful piece of art to go with my fic, First Gain the Victory. Go check it out, and then give her some love.
Fan Fiction II: Great story! Where's the sequel?
This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.
...someone just left me feedback on an older story of mine, and said that there was "room for improvement."
SHUT UP. On AOOO?
That's ... special?
On AOOO?
Great, now I am going to always mentally pronounce it as "Arooooo??" aren't I?
That is not at all part of my clever plan.
(Or as an exclamation of joy. AAAAAOOOOOOO!!!)
Yeah. I don't even know what to do with that.
I think you're entitled to point out that you wrote the story X number of years ago. And then tell the commenter to go stuff it.
I just got a comment I did not understand on my Yuletide fic. And I don't mean, like, spiritually...I mean I can't even tell if the person liked it or not because the commenter is not down with, like, sense-making and shit. Shrift, I really loved your Yuletide '08 Sports Night story...I meant to tell you that when I found it but I keep forgetting.

Tell them that their comments has persuaded you to make an utter change in your life and that you will henceforth join a monastery in Bhutan and never darken the Internet's door again.

If it had been a really old story, I'd be less insulted, but I think I wrote the story ze commented on in 2007 or 2008.

Thanks! I wrote that the first Yuletide, and suffered silently through a lot of backhanded commentary about how Sports Night wasn't really rare, and that I should be punished somehow for writing it.
I'm just a happy fun ball today, aren't I?
