special hell

[spankerella]

You know what I (check out my Firefly swear) GORRAM despise besides people who harass me about updates? People who pimp their own fics in reviews. That's so tacky. They need to go to the special hell too. I got a couple of reviews tonight for the first part of "The Distance to You" that made me wonder why these folks even bothered to review at all. Connor haters. Yeah, *insert sarcasm here* telling me in a review how much you hate one of my fave characters is REALLY gonna endear me to you and make me take note of whatever else you manage to say. Don't be like that, ladies and gentlemen. It only makes me cranky.

Now, for the most part, everyone was very helpful and constructive, and those folks will be thanked nicely when I get around to replies... which might not be this weekend. I'm working a lot.

My first reaction to the aformentioned fic was *yay* another echo-fic. Your fictions are like the sun coming up in the morning - a guaranteed sure thing (and they feel like a ray of sunshine too).

And the pairing I don't care about too much - I personally feel that any pairing will work as long as the author is good enough to addict you to that pairing from the get go . An example of a good author of obscure pairings would be "Strega Brava" (she does a really good Mione/Remus and a Mione/Percy).

Wasn't "The distance to you" written as part of the_fund ? Which is (correct if I'm wrong) a fanfiction writers sponsered thread to raise money for those hit by Hurricane Katrina ?

Ok that's really bloody sensative people . Someone's donated good money for this fiction , the proceeds of which go towards care packages and general rebuilding for those unfortunate in the destructive path of a hurricane . That's *real* nice of you . Not.

Agreed. I hate the reviews that simply say "Good fic. R&R mine. Here's the link". I barely have time to read the fics I like, let alone crap that I'm spammed with :-S

Those reviews make me sad inside. It's not like I don't have enough to do in my life but read fanfic. I don't even have time to WRITE fanfic... and here I am taking time that could be used cleaning or something and writing a chapter, and all you're going to do is tell me to read yours? Silly people.

Oh and your icon? It rocks my socks in many ways.
