oh, nora!

because if i don't find somewhere else to say this stuff the people who follow me on twitter will likely kill me. or, i read a lot of fic and most of what i come across is bad and it fills me with the bloody sputum of grammatical errors and rage.

oops i forgot tumblr for a while there but gdi i've only made it through episode 4 of season 5 and i need to know if there's anything more between walt and vic or if i have to wade through another 6 episodes of donna before i drown in an ocean of tears and dying walrus noises season 4 wrecked me i can't take that again

LOL Okey dokey then. Was my reply sarcastic? A little, but I'm too chill to waste valuable sarcasm. I have no clue how many responses you receive from authors whose works you critique in poorly contextualized chunks here-- not my business. If this process makes you happy, go for it. I can take criticism on board. It's food for thought, and there's a balance between entertaining people and serving up ill-considered schlock. In other words? Not particularly appreciated, but noted.

Actually, you’re my first. A dubious honor if ever there was one. Good night and good luck.

P.S. If you've never 'jerked sensuously' you really don't know what you're missing.

And I take great comfort in that.

Hey! Thanks for providing feedback on my Longmire fic in the 'Longmire' Tumblr tag where I could randomly happen across it instead of, oh, say, leaving me a review? That would ordinarily be the polite way to convey criticism. Anyhow, I write for fun, have (as you so kindly pointed out) a serious adverb problem, and try not to take myself too seriously. I got a good chuckle out of your tags, but I'm far less sensitive than many fic authors. Just something to think about.

You’re welcome! Oh, wait, was that sarcasm? That’s a good point, though; I shall have to find a more esoteric tag method. When I want to deliberately antagonise people I’m much more direct. I learned many years ago that criticism is not welcome, no matter how “polite”. Believe me, I am well acquainted with how “sensitive” most fic writers are. Anything less than flattery is akin to having murdered someone’s firstborn. I’m tired of it. I’m not trying to be polite. Like you, I read and write for fun. Or variations on fun. This is part of that. Or, rather, it’s how I cope with the parts that are not fun for me. Because I do take writing seriously, and I honestly don’t understand anyone who doesn’t.

her hands fell to his chest and pushed the parted fabric of his shirt collar aside to access the unashamedly masculine delights within.

Vic's arms were clasped around Walt, drawing him down as he reached and thoroughly conquered unvisited depths within her.

feeling him swell in her mouth, tasting salt, tasting silk. His hands pulled roughly, almost painfully through her hair, and she knew he was ready. He had passed the point of restraint. She would return to finish this later, after she had tasted the wildness of his eyes.

It's really short and not very good, but oh well.

Why would you put all your dialogue in bold? Is everyone supposed to be shouting?

[ohnora]

People keep drinking "Champaign" in this fic and i keep laughing every time it happens.

His hands cover her body and move to her thighs along with his eyes.

Two blue diamonds were devouring him entirely and it’s at this right moment, his gaze plunged in his son’s, he finally understood what it was like to be a man.
