On a random note, the minion is becoming a bionic for a day this weekend! She's getting a heart monitoring machine hooked up to her chest to check out a slightly high pulse. She's also getting a lot of blood drawn on the same day, getting a lecture on her eating habits and getting reevaluated for deep depression in suspicion of bipolar disorder with two visits to her psychiatrist a week. So, she might be held up for a bit when it comes to replies and other stuff.

I have offically pulled a Marjorie! XD LOL... it's been a while, huh guys? Anyway, no of ya'lls seem ta be 'round here now so I'm headen' off... I've got some stuff ta take care of I MIGHT be in later. ~Marjorie
|
|||
Just wondering, but does anyone here go to Fan fiction Net?
|
|||
The minion used to, though now-a-days generally only goes with recommendations or specialized sites for the sake of filtering some of the repetitive plots and unproven yaoi.
|
|||
Yes, they can be quite annoying, not to mention the sues, trolls and other things that can be found on the site. Though, there's good stuff there too of course, have yo uread anything by Ash the Wanderer?
|
|||
|
|||
If you would like a link to his profile, I can give one, though he wrote mostly for Dragon Ball Z, Buffy the vampire slayer and another one that I can't remember at the moment. He quite possible the best writer on the site.... I wish he hadn't stopped writiing....
|
|||
|
|||
Indeed, it's a pity because some of his best works were in that format. I suggest reading Consuming Madness and it's sequel.
|
|||
I'll admit to starting out in fanfiction. Harry Potter started it when I started hanging around a place called "Sugarquill.net" that a friend had showed me. Later on I found Fanfiction. net but stuck to reading more in the Forgotten Realms genre than anything else (as things in that genre tend to be a bit better written, and more original on the whole), though there were a few silly DBZ ones I got into back in the day. Really, though, after the sites split, I began hanging around Fictionpress more often... Then I took off for a few years. Came back just after they added the forums and have stuck around since. I find fanfiction on the whole, with a few rare exceptions, to be mostly schlock with pointless plots or seriously raped canon characters, often both. Reading too much, I find, ruins the experience and enjoyment I got from reading/seeing the original work.
|
|||
I agree that as a whole, fan fiction isn't too good.... but I know some extremely good ones on fanfic.net if you would like, Including Madness, it's sequel is the single greatest fanfic I have ever read... It's better then some published authors.... Of course, I mostly stick around the Dragon Ball Z section of ffnet so I can't really speak for the others, but the dbz section had been reasonably good since the whole DUO thing.....
|
|||
I enjoy fan fiction when plot/story are well writen... I write much of my own as well... The minion will contest to having found my "secret stash" of mostly starwars and tolkien fan fic... and I've shaired some with her that I will never publish anywhere, because it's smut, LOL... but I generally don't read other's ff without recomendation usually, because most of it sucks due to lack of charater devlopment (witch I find funny sense you have predetermined charaters, at least for main charaters) and lack of actual story/plot. ~Marjorie
|
|||
Well, in that case you should check out Ash the wanderer, best writer on Fanfic.net.
|
|||
Eh, a good story is a good story to the minion, weither it be fanfiction, or RP, or original work. It's when that story starts getting told too often the minion starts getting disgusting.
|
|||
I wish my work was as good as his.... but I'm working on it... Would you like to have a look at one of my works? It's not too good yet, but if you leave a review telling how it can be improved I would be greatfull
|
|||
The minion would love to check them out, though should warn you she is a bit of a slow reader.
|
|||
I used to beta read and edit for ppl a lot... but I do not so much anymore... time constraints with me not haveing net access at home an all make it very hard for me... but I miht give you a quick R&R some time... it is easier for me if you send me the story via e-mail though. My e-mail if you like is: ~Marjorie
|
|||
Thanks, here's the link: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4206521/1/The_Beast_Within Also, Marjorie, it's not showing your email, if you want to Pm it to me, I normally do something like this to get it to show up Email @ hot mail . com then tell them to remove the spaces.
|
|||
wtf... Oh well, when did they start doing that. It's marjorievonnordeck @ yahoo blarg... why won't they let you put an e-mail addy on here? ~Marjorie
|
|||
I'm not sure why they wont let you, they stopped on fanfic net a while ago, which is why I learned to do that.
|
|||
OOOH, I'm on FanFic. I write King Arthur stuff, though, not sure how many of y'all are into that....but I'd appreciate any opinions y'all are willing to give....if you want to take the time to read my stories...I also wrote a child's version of Beowulf for school and I quite like how it turned out. but yeah...anyways...here's a link to my site if y'all are interested.
|
|||
I might look into that, what's your account name?
|
|||
I just edited my post and there's a link there.
|
|||
Ok, thanks. Oh and I've got the quest thread up.
|
|||
You're welcome and I noticed. XD
|
|||
lol. Just when I thought I would finally get back into the pot. I realize something. First off, not only are my semester exams, and graduation stuff coming up in may going to impede my progress, but the simple fact that I get my second job soon (if I have lil time now, it will go to almost none, so I wont bother with haflassedness on my part). So Mindwarp, and Marjorie, I am sorry to say that after today, I will no longer be on the pot for some time so I will try to conclude "this" part of our story, so that your characters are freed up. Hopefully some time later il be able to come back and finish this. (p.s. WOOT! :D I got a lil scholarship to the Texas State Technical College in Waco!!! :P NOW just to get accepted... ) anyways, hope ya'll have a good one, and sometime in summer il be back... So for the meantime, enjoy yourselves without my crappy plot holes, and horrible characters being out of the picture. X.X ~Lord Genserick.

I love you all. And I respect you. And that's why i wouldn't do this if it wasn't last resort. I need to get back on top of my uni life. I need to prioritise. That's why I'll be gone for a month or so. At least till I'm back on track. If you have a character with me do what you will with them. They still exist... so if you want to play them, feel free. Just don't give up on me. For those of you I talk to on IM services, I'll still be in touch, I just won't be talking in uni hours. I shall only be keeping one character active and that is Jade/Quinn from Quest 8 in the Melting Pot. I needed someone to keep me sane and I'm sorry, but only that thread I can count on at the moment. I will contact people by email if they email me, but that will be handled during the chat time I alot myself. I am sorry to be a disappointment to so many people who have cared for me. I still love you and I want you to know that you own my heart. All of you. I do hope some of you enjoy playing my characters and I await your emails with hopeful heart. Stay safe and enjoy the game. Oh and anyone who wants to play my characters has my permission but must talk it through with their respective GM. GB has my permission to play Satan.

Ah, the revenge of life. The bane of every forum surfer and web comic. Good luck with life, you two! Make sure to stop in the OOC area/WIM/e-mail and leave a word every once in a while! The minion sees you as extended family she has never meet face to face, and would hate losing contact.
|
|||
Aaahh... the baine that is real life, LOL... I dissapeared for nearly 3 months and my charaters still are here, LOL... We will wait paiently and loyaly for your return as ever a fair maid awaited the return of her chapion. ROTFL . XD ~Marjorie
|
|||
Calling all starwars freaks, LOL... anyone wishing to play a Jedi and or Jedi Padawan charater is invited to join us in quest 26... just let me know first. ~Marjorie
|
|||
Anouther type of "non-Jedi" charater we may need for quest 26 would be some sort of civi scientest... a zoologest; microbioloest, or something of the like... a bio-chemest... ~Marjorie
|
|||
Heehee... I've pulled a "marjorie" must be off now though. Greetings from Cali. :P ~Marjorie
|
|||
Cali you say? What're you doing all the way over there? :P
|
|||
I know you're there Marj, even if your IM isn't working. :P
|
|||
I was in Cali... I'm back in NV now... I was in Cali for my sister's Sr. Recitle. She's a music prefomance major... so her recitle was basically more inportant that finals in her classes. And yes I'm here and I can IM now. XD ~Marjorie
|
|||
