Fandom is wacky

[ratherastory]

Dear Fan,

It's very nice of you to review my stories. From the looks of it, you might even be a BNF, although it's kind of hard to tell. Certainly you're prolific, and I've seen your name bandied about fandom since I joined. It's great that you took the time to review my story on fanfiction.net, really and truly.

That being said, telling me basically that "h/c: ur doin it wrong" is a little silly, given that my story is very clearly labeled as horror, and not h/c.

I get that you're primarily a h/c writer, and hey, I've totally enjoyed your stories too. If h/c is what you're looking for, then please, by all means, read the stories I've written that are labeled as such. If you want h/c, then reading the "horror" story is not going to work out for you.

Love,

Me

I think the new warning should be: Warning You Will Ruin the Plot.

I approve!

(I obviously need an icon with Dean giving a thumbs-up.)

All I have his the MBV stamp of approval. LOL

That's not bad.

I'm thinking of the scene in the park in "The Kids Are All Right."

Dean Approves!™

Duh. I did have that icon at one time. Here, here it is again. LOL

OMG!

May I steal it? Is it yours? Who do I credit if I do steal it?

[pkwench.livejournal.com]

It isn't mine and I have no clue who made it. I nabbed it from someone who'd nabbed it from someone else. It's a chain of non-crediting. I say steal away and drop in something indicating that you didn't make it. :)

YAY!
