| Why would we want more of this? |

Dear writer for a pairing that I'm just starting reading.
You fic starts with punctuation less text block of doom. Seriously 150 words with no punctuation except a period at the end.
You then don't bother capitalising anything, apart from people's names, not even the first word of your oddly spaced paragraphs. You use ellipses instead of commas and question marks. (or possibly they just ran away, as there are no commas at all in the entire fic.) Periods are apparently optional, as are apostrophes. Some of the words you use like 'comed' don't exist. All the text is in bold.
And those are only the things that are immediately and obviously wrong with the fic.
But you know what really gets me?
All reviews say please write more.
Unfortunately for the rest of us you did.
A reader who is going to avoid your fic in future.

Happy New Year!
Happy New Year to everyone. Let's all have
another great year.
[PICTURE]
Every year on New Years Day at my parents house
we have New Year's spiced sake together. This year, too,
I was supposed to be in charge of the kuromame, but...
for the 2nd time in two years it was a disaster. Shiwa...
Fortunately my older sister was able to rescue it with
her pressure cooker and it ended up tasting delicious.
I may have mentioned this on the BBS...
This year I am thinking I would like to write
a lot of "Color Books". [I think these may be colored manga
books on a specific topic, perhaps educational--Translator.]
So while I think I'd like to do it, am I wondering if I really can and
whether I really have what it takes to do it.
Boy-Child's Corner
[PICTURE]
Lately it seems like he wants to use chopsticks, but
it's a bit of a pain. I probably should get some child-chopsticks.
Oh right, on New Year's Day he promptly dislocated
his left shoulder. We got him treated quickly at the hospital,
and he is much better. I thought he had gone out with POM
to the park to play, but then he came back crying about
his shoulder. Boy was I surprised.

| Kakashi-centric fic: True Love |
[ | 01/07/2010 @ 12:08PM ] |
Title: True Love
Character(s): Kakashi
Genre(s): General/Angst
Rating: T for occasional language
Warnings: None
Summary: One day Kakashi bought a small orange book. Six years later, they were inseparable. This is what happened in between. Quite simply, this is the story of a man and his porn.
A/N: A collection of semi-related ficlets. They should each make sense on their own, but since they collectively show the development of a character, I'd recommend reading from the beginning.
Links to ff.net:
Ch 1 (Kakashi only, angst)
Ch 2 (Kakashi only, angst)
Ch 3 (Kakashi only, angst, Gaiden references)
Ch 4 (Kakashi and Gai, mild humor)
Ch 5 (Kakashi, Gai, Tenzou, Asuma, Genma, mild humor, fun with shinobi paranoia)

...The ultimate truth is penultimately always a falsehood. He who will be proved right in the end appears to be wrong and harmful before it.
But who will be proved right? It will only be known later. Meanwhile he is bound to act on credit and to sell his soul to the devil, in the hope of history's absolution.

Dear all writers in Who fandom,
The Doctor does not hate any of his companions. He canonically has been slow to warm to some of them (Barbara and Ian, Turlough) but he would not think when one of them is gone that he is glad to be rid of them. I know you probably hate some of the companions, but you're not the Doctor and don't project those feelings on to him. (And if you hate XYZ, just don't write about them! It's not like there's a shortage of people to choose from!)
With all due respect,
theorclair

but:
"Adolph Hitler and Jesus are both my original characters. They are copyrighted and you cannot use them without my permission.
Now, without further ado, here's chapter one of my story!"
Say what now? Is it possible for Adolf Hitler, a real-life historical figure, and Jesus, who you most certainly didn't create, to in fact be your original characters? And copyrighted, at that?
If anything this falls more into the category of RPS.
FAIL, dear ffnet. author, on many - MANY - levels.
Also, this little excerpt:
"While they were talking Hitler found himself checking out Jesus' tight bod. If he wasn't Furor of Germany..."
LMFAO...
Maybe you consider them to be your "original characters" because they are so wildly OOC.
(This was inspired by the, "Der Himmel über Berlin fanfiction." post a few below mine, because how could I not google Hitler/Jesus after that?)
EDIT: for failure on my part to acknowledge or correctly spell: "Adolf"

Dear Star Trek fandom:
Pon farr does not translate to “planned rape time.” I realize that, in absence of a plethora of canon facts, people are going to draw their own conclusions about a lot of things. Pon farr is one of those topics that doesn’t show up much and doesn’t have a lot of canonical information. But, seriously, guys. I’ve read, in the past few days, at least five fics wherein the Vulcan women are afraid of pon farr and describe it like it’s rape. At this point, I’m starting to feel like authors are just using it to create more angst for their stories.
I don’t mind the “Vulcans turn into mindless, violent monsters” interpretation of pon farr, despite how my rant sounds. My mileage varies on that one from day to day. I realize that, when there isn’t much information in regards to an aspect of fandom, people will make stuff up. But, really, does it have to be this mindless violence thing every single time? Canon says Vulcan males must mate or die because of hormone imbalance. Hormone imbalance does not turn someone into a psychotic killing machine.
Remember, kids: Fanon =/= canon, and having an original and different idea is not a problem. Also: Who the hell decided that Vulcans “mark” their mates by biting? And where did this bizarre notion that they descended from cats come from?

| Concentration (6/?) |
[ | 01/07/2010 @ 12:10PM ] |
Story Title:Concentration (6/?) (working title)
Author's name:kikiko_haru
Main Characters: Jim Kirk/ Leonard McCoy(Reaper)
Rating: G this time Mature to be safe overall
Warnings: none this time
Status: WIP
Word count: This installment - 3, 862. Total words to date: 16, 094
Summary: Jim calls him Bones. It's better then Reaper by far, but it still conjures images of death.
A/N: You guys are awesome with the reviews. In other fandoms I have not been so graciously welcomed as I have here. Thank you. It's very humbling.
EDIT: A/N (2) - To those new people who want to friend my journal, would you be so kind as to introduce yourselves at this post here? In the past, I have been a victim of 'bots so, if I don't get a introduction, you may be banned under the assumption that you are in fact, a 'bot. I don't want that to happen, as I know many of you might be lurkers. That's okay. Just let me know that you are a person, okay?
