Author has written 1 story for Harry Potter. After reading fanfiction for several years I am actually going to give it a go - God help me! Honestly I can say I don't think I'm a natural at this so apologies for any stumbling, rambling prose. I am very much an avid reader and this is just an experiment to see how it develops. Things I hate in fanfiction: 1. Incorrect use of grammar 2. Incorrect use of punctuation - though some of the lesser known symbols I am not exactly a saint with either! 3. Inexcusably short chapters - talking about less than 500 words. They really annoy me! 4. Work that has obviously not been proof read by the author. Apart from the above points I do enjoy reading work by fanfiction authors. I am constantly surprised and delighted by the quality of work submitted. That says a lot when I've been reading work on this site since 2006! Personally I don't really adhere to one particular fandom. My favoured ones, in no particular order, are as follows: Harry Potter, A song of Ice and Fire series, Warehouse 13, The Mentalist, Law and Order S.V.U., Rizzoli and Isles, Once upon a Time, Bones, The Hollows series, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Twilight, Lord of Rings, The Hunger Games, Pride and Prejudice, Elementary, Star Wars, Glee . . . etc As you can probably see I do have a preference for the fantasy/sci-fi genre but not exclusively!!! Anyway, the work I complete will depend on what strikes my fancy - it could be Glee one week, Star Wars the next to be honest. I am not going to be uploading every week - not that fast unfortunately but I will make every effort to be consistent. Please do leave a review with what you think! I would be interested to hear what you have to say! Thanks again for taking the time to read my stories! |
