  1. review from GossamerSilverglow 08/05/13: Thank you for reviewing! I really appreciate you taking the time, and your kind words, as well as your critique of the work. In regards to my line and Sarah holding on to her childhood - yes, it was intentional. I'm glad that you noticed it! Because I am generally as blunt as a spoon, I have learned that in communicating (and what is writing, but our attempt to communicate our thoughts and ideas to one another?) I need to choose my words carefully. Most people will choose to misunderstand me, so I must be sure that my message is clear. Having said that, in hindsight, given the review from both you and AnnaBear, I'm thinking I should have included an author's note that had the tagline of the movie: "Where Everything Seems Possible And Nothing Is What It Seems." You brought up that you think Sarah is out of character because you think she is not seeing the whole picture. I do have to reiterate what I stated to AnnaBear: the story is tagged Angst. There will be character conflict, and that hasn't happened yet. I'm not going to give away my plot, or what I intend to happen here; just know that Sarah is not intended to be out of character. A stage is being set still. I will tell you that Jareth will not be offering to send Toby above world. I'm very glad that you like the opening scene to the story. I do hope that you'll continue to give it a chance. There is quite a bit yet that has not yet been introduced. Edit: Oh! Bussed: http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/buss

  3. anesor - Thank you for taking the time to read and review! I do try to pay attention to the details - it makes the story so much more realistic and fluid. I'm glad that you enjoyed that aspect of it! I hope I can continue to deliver the detail while integrating the prompt words and still meeting the word count requirements. I'm glad you enjoyed the read, and certainly hope you continue to read and enjoy.

      You have to admire the persistence of their stupidity. They're not just pretending; they embrace the stupid fully.

      Dany, Bronx - ayup! They hug the stupid and hold it tight.

  6. And in regards to making a statement about wanting honest reviews, this is from an author's profile: (edited to remove specific detail) And beneath that: Contradictory much? Honestly, as a reader, seeing that makes me click the back button very quickly. I'm not going to bother. Why? Because you're going to get offended if I do anything but fanpoodle. With respect to the ratings system: I think, Bronx, you and Dean_Wax may be talking about two different things. I'm fairly certain D_W is referring to the K, K+, T, M - no MA materials allowed (but they're posted anyway). I know Bronx is referring to Average / Total Vote +++++ / 1 on our stories here. I don't think I need to weigh in on the kiddies on site bit; fairly certain any one who's been about for at least two months in forums knows where I stand on that one.
  7. Given that one is for Tesgura's "Baby Boy" I'm betting the author got tired of the complaints about clearly tagged content and deleted it.

  9. BronxWench, thank you for your lovely reviews! I really appreciate that you take the time to read and review. I'm very glad you're enjoying the story. Many thanks for letting me know I got the realism on the little girl spot-on. I always think that even though it feels right in the scene to me, it won't to anyone else. Knowing that it did come across as intended is the highest compliment I could receive, so a profuse thanks for that. You flatter me by saying that this is enthralling. I fear I may not live up to expectations, but I shall endeavor just the same. I'm glad that you are enjoying the story, and I'm grateful to you for letting me know that I'm actually conveying what I wish to in my attempts at writing. Thanks again for reading, and I hope I can keep you interested!

  13. I have some variation of this in my stories:
  14. And another part of this seems to be that people don't want to be the first one to say anything. That same review board I linked above, if you go to the next page, the first reviewer states that they had issues with the story as well, but also indicates because all the other reviews were positive, they didn't want to say anything. That tells me that a great many more people would review if there was some type of "this is good, but it could be better" tips were left (but not with that wording - that's presumptuous, and shouldn't be used). And of course the review right behind it is fanpoodling and doesn't actually have anything to say about the story itself, just complaining that the author is getting the concrit that was requested.
  15. Yes, the blank page means that it was deleted. The author's profile.
  16. Thank you to everyone who aided in this endeavor - FFN has finally deleted her account!
  17. No, she was not underage. As we've had this discussion before, the author chose to remove the story. Please do not assume that a story's removal is because the user was underage. Sometimes users choose to delete stories because they are unhappy with them (I've done it myself).
  18. Bun, another factor in this is that you haven't updated anything since 2011 in the Originals section on your postings. That's going to make a big difference as to whether you get reviews - if you're actively writing. Also, you only have 2 stories on your profile in that section that have less than 10 reviews; the rest have at least an equal number of reviews as there are chapters, so you do have people giving you feedback. I understand you might want more feedback than what you're getting, but you'll have to put something new out there in order to get people interested in looking through your writing again.
  19. Sorry, but I have to admit that I laugh my ass off in every episode of Quantum Leap where Scott Bakula is wearing a dress.
  20. Not really, no. I think part of it, and I'm going to use this as an example (you don't have to read the story that goes with it if you don't want to) is the way that concrit is received. http://hp.adult-fanfiction.org/review.php?set=read&no=600094447&limit=&page=9 So, first thing is how I even had to preface my review with a disclaimer - not the part about only being a reader and not reviewing it as a staff issue - but the whole bit about "I'm not attacking you." I personally feel I shouldn't have to say that. But I do. Because writers (younger ones especially) tend to take any statement that their writing didn't fall from heaven as a personal insult, when, as a reader, all I'm trying to do is give you feedback. So when the response to "hey, here's some things to think about" is "oh my god, how dare you?!" (not that this author did, but understand the general reaction), I can see why people don't want to review. Now, what this author did do that I think was unnecessary was post an AN chapter response (again, my staff hat is off, so let's not address the issues which will be handled on sweep). You don't even have to read that to get the idea behind it - just read the reviews after mine - all three are about the AN chappy. I have four profiles listed where I can be contacted on my archive profile here. I have my MSN on there. Any responses to reviews I leave should be handled through any one of those venues - that's why that contact information is there. Hells, my bio is all about the types of reviews I tend to leave. Because people get pissy about them. I don't think you should be flamed, that any actual writer should (I'm leaving thieves out of that equation), but I can appreciate that at least it's feedback. You know somebody read it, and they had a reaction - even if it was completely negative. Basically, a lot of the issue has to do with author reactions for the last several years while reviews were left. Reviews tapered off because when experienced writers were trying to help less experienced or younger writers, they either came across as abrasive or the author had a "my shit is gold" complex. So now, the entire community has to suffer for it. I have to wonder, honestly and truly, if a lot of those wondering what happened to the reviews now are the same ones who had the inappropriate reactions previously. (And I'm suddenly wondering if that's a worthy research project....)
  21. I admit I have deleted troll reviews from FFN left by "guest". I even know who left them, but because they weren't logged in, I can't prove it. And I hate to think that it's a dead practice - I always try to review as well. However, there are a great many things that I view for staff purposes, or for purposes of proving plagiarism on the part of one party. Those items will not usually receive a review.
  22. Just as a side note - we couldn't (currently) make it have the same hits and reviews in both sections because the tables are different. It's like having files on your computer - you put it in Folder A and Folder B on the same day, but modify the one in Folder A on Tuesdays and the on in Folder B on Fridays. It's going to show the individual data to each file. But like Bronx said, cross-posting is one thing we don't allow unless it's a translation.
  23. Hello there, First, this forum is to be used for searches for fiction. Your query more properly would belong here. Second, if you need a category that doesn't yet exist, you will need to post in this forum. Please read this thread: New Category request requirements before posting, though. Thanks!
