LOL, yes! But I find it fun and refreshing to write from one-word prompts. It's an addiction that's actually healthy for you. EDIT: I have a whole list of unusual words and thought I'd share. It grows every day.

You're very welcome. I do the same so they don't bother me.

I found it very interesting. Other than grammatical errors and such, I found it quite propelling and I'm curious about the next chapter. Keep up the good work!

I think that the way you wrote her speaking is fine. As long as it's readable and can be understood, then I don't see a problem.

It's like what Demon said, they are more guidelines than rules. Something to help people start out a character. I've found it useful as a basis when I start sketching characters out, especially if I want to try to write a different type of character.

How much time do you spend trying to create the Perfect Woman? She's brilliant, passionate and the life of the party. She can cook, clean, raise children and hold down a job with no problem. There's nothing she can't do. It's a great thing to dream about but there's a problem – no one, even characters, are perfect. In any movie or novel you read, there is always some obstacle that the heroine has to overcome and these barriers allow the reader to connect emotionally to your character. If you start out with a perfect character then there's no place for them to grow with the reader. There isn't anything compelling them to follow your story and character, wanting to know what will happen next or will she be okay. That doesn't mean she has to have gone through some horrible situation but small problems can mount up, so keep that in mind. Regardless of the genre there are eight basic heroines. The Boss is a take charge woman. She demands respect and her goals are her most important things in life. She doesn't accept failure and she won't give up. She's a workaholic, confident, competitive, arrogant, and her attitude must be consistent with her behavior. Imagine how she would act in a situation – I use key words like the ones listed in the previous sentence. Examples: Working girl climbing a corporate ladder, a pampered princess. Katharine Hepburn is a good example. She's played many 'boss archetypes' (Eleanor of Aquitaine in The Lion in Winter). The Survivor is mysterious, manipulative and has many charms. She's street smart and her intelligence is always hiding behind a seductive smile but she always keeps her wits. She hides a very strong streak of distrust in anyone and it's second nature to size up everyone in a room the minute she enters. Cynicism guides her every action. Her survival instincts gives her the means to do whatever is necessary to come out ahead. She skates on thin ice and may seem more of a villainess than heroine. Eventually a hero comes who is able to see through the wall she built around herself. Examples: Margaret Mitchell, who crafted the icon of a Survivor through Scarlett O'Hara in Gone With the Wind, Sharon Stone in Basic Instinct, Madonna in Evita, or Bette Davis in just about anything. The Spunky Kid is funny, supportive, reliable, the All-American Girl. She's not looking to be at the top, just in her own little niche. She's the team player, always ready to lend a hand. She maybe a cheerleader but never captain. She doesn't have any enemies and plenty of friends. Her humor helps her through the bumps of her love life, "ever the bridesmaid" ring a bell? She's more comfortable to hang around the guys than dress up. She never runs away and can forget the differences between her and the hero if it can stop an escalating situation. She also worries for others more than herself. Examples: Meg Ryan in Sleepless in Seattle, Melanie Griffith in Working Girl, and Janine Garofalo in The Truth About Cats & Dogs. The Free Spirit is "original", playful, fun loving, acts on a whim and follows her heart, and not head. She sets trends and is always looking for new experiences. She travels through life with a hop, skip and jump always stopping to smell the flowers and admire the colors. She can be a little ditzy but is sincere and willing to help. She scoffs at danger and resists any effort to be pulled to safety, enjoying the excitement and would be high from the adrenaline rush. Examples: Lucille Ball, Goldie Hawn, Jenna Elfman from Dharma & Greg, and Calista Flockhart in Ally McBeal. These women share sincerity and imagination, with a strong sprinkling of an impulsive need to meddle in their friends' lives. The Waif is the original damsel in distress. Think Cinderella, Sleepy Beauty, Rapunzel. Her innocence evokes a protective urge from the hero. She has a tremendous amount of will and will endure instead of fighting back. She's pure at heart, too trusting and insecure. She seems untouched by the harshness of the world and is patient and adaptable to any situation. She'll carry on looking for the day she will be free of her suffering but takes little action to bring herself closer to that day. If she's cornered, she will take desperate measures when there is no other option. Examples: Marilyn Monroe in The Misfits and La Femme Nikita (I guess I could see Nikita as a waif in the beginning). The Librarian is prim and proper but has a passionate side. She's learned to lead with her brain and not her body. She doesn't wear revealing clothes and always has an answer, which can make her quite stubborn to others opinions. She's serious, efficient, and may have to overcome feelings of inadequacy. She's prefers a well-reason debate to settle differences, is practical and takes a moment to study the situation, trying to find the easiest way to safety. She can take care of herself but wouldn't turn a man down. Examples: Shelly Long in Cheers, Shirley Jones in The Music Man, (wonderful movie), Ellen Barkin in The Big Easy. The Crusader is a modern heroine who doesn't scream in fear. She's not a damsel in distress. She has a mission and marches over anyone in her way. This woman is headstrong, tenacious, keeps her eyes on the goal and brushes off any opposition. You can't calm her down or force her to do anything and she doesn't need to be protected. If you aren't helping her, then you're in her way – or even an enemy. So if she has to save or protect something, she's a crusader. Examples: Sarah Michelle Gellar in Buffy, Lucy Lawless in Xena, Wonder Woman, BatGirl, Supergirl. The Nurturer is not always Suzy Homemaker but she takes care of everyone else. She listens, is happy to see you, serene, capable, optimistic, calm, cool, collected and always has the answers. Her role is to take care of family and friends so anyone can depend on her. Examples: Julie Andrews who played Mary Poppins and Gabrielle from Xena. (Will eventually post the Eight Male Archetypes.)

I do this too. I tend to write ahead and post chapters leisurely so that if I hit a writer's block, it's not that big of a deal. I also write by hand but it tends to only happen if I'm at work.

First, I have never felt like apologizing for anything that I posted (just horribly embarrassed at my earlier work). If someone doesn't like it, I'm not bothered by that or the flame they leave behind (or the lack of reviews). One, I write for myself and two, I know that there are people out there that would and do like it. I love writing and, like my art, it helps to relieve my tension, anger, frustration, etc. My first fanfiction site was fanfiction.net and I really loved it there, until I found AFF. Here, there's no 'line' to cross and I have no limitations on myself. I don't have to worry about some young person reading my story without them realizing that it's adult. They venture forth of their own volition. This is the perfect place to let my desires and whatnot run wild without worrying about the repercussions of some underage reader 'accidently' clicking on my story. As long as there are correct warnings on the work, then there is no need for anyone to apologize. It's the reader's choice to read something, if they don't like it, then that's their problem and it has nothing to do with you. Most people are close-minded. It's a fact. You are on an adult fanfiction site so I feel that it's safe to post anything you write. If the readers here can't be mature then there's no reason for you to feel regret about writing something and posting it. If someone reads something that they didn't like, I see that as their problem not mine. Ultimately, and I believe this to be true for every writer, what you write is for you and not for other's to read and like or hate. You shouldn't feel neither embarrassment or ashamed because you're trying something new with your writing. The more styles you begin to experiment with, the more you will grow. And isn't that what everyone aims for? Just remember that you are on a site where there are people who will read what you write and post and will like it, so don't worry and don't apologize.
