did you publish it by chance?

Noah, baby, jealousy never works out well...

It was an amazing story. Really good I have a lot of emotions when reading it. You should post the sequel please. Love their characters especially Noah.

This story was beautiful. I loved and hated the ending. The story is just so real. I hate that you did it but i realize that's what happens. Sometimes life just sucks. And sometimes...sometimes it's like your story. Thank you for reposting this. I'm glad that I got to read it.

Yay! I've been missing your stories for far too long! :D

Dear Lilithika,

Hey! I was (still am) a fan of you and your story 'This is the Church'. I adored it very much, and even if it has been several months since its unfortunate disappearance in fictionpress, it's still my favorite story in the whole web, (fanfiction, fictionpress, livejournal, etc.) Really I love it and I miss it so much, and I was wondering if it was possible if I could have a soft copy of your story :). Of course I'm not going to claim it as my own, and I promise to put disclaimers and copy rights if you do allow me to keep a copy.

I'm asking for a copy not only because I love and adore your work, but also because our school's newspaper is asking us to write a review on a fiction story from the internet (we want to be unique :) ), and well, the first story that came to my mind was yours! I thought it would have been the perfect story to write about! It was emotional and realistic, and heart-throbbing. Novel-worthy, no kidding! So I beg you, am on my knees, if you could share a full copy of this breath-taking novella please do! The only reason I actually accepted writing the article/review for our paper was because I wanted to make a review on your story and spread how utterly amazing it is.

I love you, you're amazing and I wish I could hear from you more! I hope this letter/comment/request doesn't offend you in any kind of way. I'd love to hear from you soon :) Please and thanks!

Signed,
SylverBreak

P.S. I DIDN'T KNOW YOU MADE A NEW STORY OoO Hell to the yeah! I will now go off to read it and spread it to my friends. I hope you don't mind getting another review from me because I would probably do so again once I read your story :) See you!

your story was recently plagiarized and used as a backstreet boys story at before i knew it was plagiarized i gave it lots of praise. Now that I know it belongs to you and was written by you OI want to give you praise. Great story!

You wrote a beautiful story with so much emotion, honesty and heart. I am sorry to hear that someone had the audacity to steal it from you. I can say it has happened to many online in all different writing communities and it is very sad. I hope this does not stop you from writing online completely. You are a very good writer and do not let other's stupidity and selfishness stop you from sharing your art.

Hi there,

My name is Julilly and I am a moderator at , an archive for fanfiction. It was recently brought to our attention that your story "This is the Church" was being posted on our site under a different penname and altered slightly. We take plagiarism very seriously and just want to confirm with you that: ?sid10860 is not your story or penname. As soon as I hear back from you we will take appropriate action. In the meantime this poster's account has been suspended.

Thank you and hope to hear from you soon! ()

I just want to let you know that it is currently 5am. I spent the entire night reading this story, and what you have so far of the sequel. And while I am going to be exceedingly tired tomorrow at class, I've gotta say: IT WAS SO FREAKING WORTH IT.

Honestly, this is the best story I've read on fictionpress in a long time, if not ever. First off, it was well written in a way that I would normally find on bookshelves as opposed to on this site. It was obvious that you had put thought into the plot line and writing. Secondly, these characters, oh my gosh, they are so realistic. So often when I read slash on fictionpress, the guys tend to come off as whiny, wimpy, and overly feminine in such a way that it is obvious that they're being written by a girl who is just placing a female mind in a male character's body. This was not the case with either Noah not Finn. They seemed like actual boys, which made the story so enjoyably realistic. This was just such a great read.

I mean, there were a few minor grammatical and punctuation mistakes here and there, and like others have pointed out, the religion was a bit off in the beginning. I also did find it a bit hard to believe that everyone in the town was so sheltered to the point where the captain of the football team had never had a drink before. But, that could just be my own perspective as I do come from a very different environment. A few things felt a bit rushed. I wish we had more time with Leila and Darren before the end, but other than those minor things I really, really, loved this story.

I think that with some minor retooling, editing, and expansion this could be publishable. It was really that good :) I've already read what you have up of the sequel and I can't wait for the next chapter. You left us with a bit of a cliffhanger! Keep up the great work :)

Holy hell, if my mom wasn't beside me, I would've cried by now, I swear. HOW COULD YOU DO THAT TO FINN AND NOAH! They were two perfectly (okay...not perfectly) in loved hormonal teenagers! They were perfect for each other! They were made for each other!

My god this was one of the best fics I have ever read! and it includes novel wise and fanfiction wise! You're amazing! Everything just seemed so real, that at one point, it kinda made me feel angry at religion and stuff...hehe I'm Catholic btw xP anyways! As I said, I swear this was one of the best stories I have ever read! It was so emotional! God I'm so jealous! You're writing is just so awesome!

If I could, I would have jumped to read the sequel of your story right now! But alas, 10 minutes before midnight and my bro wants the computer...and since for some reason I'm a sucker when it comes to him, I'm handing it to him already T.T Also, I've procrastinated enough. I actually have an exam tomorrow.

Well I'm leaving now! I'll just read the sequel tomorrow! Goodbye for now! :*

CRYING okay love this story flies off to read the sequel! (and to favorite and alert it too :D)

OMG i was gonna cry when I heard that This is the Church was ending thank gosh you're making a sequel. LOVE YOUR WORK :D

I cannot believe you ended it like that! Great story! I loved it! I felt like crying at the end though, I hate it when people don't get their happy endings. You better make Noah happy in the sequel other wise I'll be very upset! amazing writing though keep it up :)

No! What happened? Just when it seemed like they were finally going to be together! It just can't end like this! A-and the sequel, Finn have a child and is together with Dianna? I can hardly believe that thing are going to go well for Noah and Finn now... where is the "happily ever after" that I was looking forward to? *heartbroken*

Anyway, I still love you as an author and I'm gonna keep reading, of course, 'cause I still wanna know what's gonna happen (and hope for a happier ending nest time).
