after spending so much time on Asianfanfics.com these past years, I realized something.
real authors need real (heavily constructive) criticism.
I mean the most I see people comment about a story is about how cute this character look (when in actualness the author has not even describe their cuteness in words) or how cute the main characters were together (hmm. I guess that's the disadvantage of writing a fan fiction. coz you're using characters from the real life; Kpop artists and such).
Point is, i don't think most of us want this.
I, for one, would love a criticism on the way I laid out the story, my grammar (though i wouldn't listen much on that since English is only my second language. LOL), and you know, REAL criticism!
but I guess (again) I have to take into account that that website if full of hormonal teenagers, who was so keen into the story line alone (without really caring how the words were laid down as long as there's the name of their fav kpop artists in it) than how it was laid out etc etc.
I'm not saying I'm THAT good! gawd, no. I've got a lot to learn too.
it just frustrates me that I'm posting my story there in the hope that I would get decent, constructive, criticism that would help me improve myself in one way or another, but I got this childish review instead.
I had one good review once for one of my stories and although it stinks and i kinda don't like it in the beginning, I still appreciate it. it got me where I am today.
but since me and that person are not talking to each other anymore, I have no one else to ask harsh review from.
sigh.
You really don't miss your water, till the well runs dry.
ANYWAY~~
I WANT CONSTRUCTIVE REVIEWS ON MY STORY!
ANYBODY WANTS TO BE THE REVIEWER?!
also, desperate time calls for desperate measures.
