Author has written 19 stories for Love, General, Life, Friendship, Fantasy, Fantasy, Romance, and Humor. You Have Now Arrived at the Page of Olivine: Writer, Reader, and C2 Manager Regarding Island of the Romanced... Island of the Romanced was created simply to see how well I could do with it. It's advertising. Pulling through with what you say matters, and so does keeping up and keeping the C2 active. Am I right? Well, after I saw how well it was doing (third most subscribed-to), I decided to keep it going healthy and strong. See how well I can do. Plus I like the stories in there. I don't even use my Favorite Stories thing anymore. Anywho, if you'd like to be a staff member of the Island, go ahead and PM me. Note that you'll have to be active in your role. When you see a story that you think deserves a place here, you add it. (See below for rules.) Or else, if you find a story that you believe is the best story in the world and you feel the need to see it in the C2 so other people can share your joy and excitement, PM me and I'll look at it. (The rules below also apply for this.) Rules: I don't suppose the rules look very strict, but I'm very crazy about them. I worship these rules. Not really, but you get the idea, right? A story that's readable by all ages is important, and the quality equally so. I also look at popularity, meaning the number of reviews it has. My theory is, the more reviews for a smaller amount of chapters, the better it is. Which is mostly true. I mean, if you looked at a story that has 45 chapters and only 57 reviews, that's not very good at all. But I've put up stories before that do have a lovely number of reviews, but the story itself was terrible. At least the authors had a nice and loyal fanbase. I took down those stories, of course. Anyways, I'm as careful as I can possibly be with the Island. I look at it as a challenge for myself and, more importantly, something to do. If you have any questions at all, feel absolutely free to PM me. I know I seem inactive and maybe that scares you guys, thinking of all the things that could have happened to me, such as being eaten by homework, but I check my email very often. Promise. Olivine Regarding Beta-Reading... As I no longer have any time to beta, I'm no longer a beta-reader. Regarding my own work... I used to use this site a whole lot. I used to have a few stories up, but have since taken them down because they were awful and barely salvagable. So, now, you'll see poems which are slightly better, but still not very good. If you'll notice, they're mostly quite old. (It's August 2009, as I'm writing this right now.) My writing has definitely improved since then. So please excuse the rubbishness that is the writing here. Note 6/2/09: I'm probably not going to use this site for posting my work, anymore. But I'm still keeping and maintaining Island of the Romanced. Please continue to suggest stories for the C2. And if anyone is interested in becoming a staff member, let me know! Edit (8/6/09): If you do contant me about becoming a part of my C2, as a staff member, please be prepared to respond to my message back. I've had plently of people contact me about becoming a staff member, but when I send them a message, I never get a reply. If you're interested, I assume you'd take responsibility and send me a message back. If you don't, you won't become a staff member.
