    Attention all!

    I haven't actually done anything in a long time on here, I well understand that, but I have actually contributed to something that will get on the site! A good friend of mine, Peregrine Caged , has set up an OC Tournament and I was one of the contestants. So if that sounds like an interesting read, go on over and support it.

    Yeah guys, I have a new story

    And by 'I', I of course mean 'we'... it's a collab you see.

    I put it in the description but I'll reiterate it here. The story is being co-written with my good friend Sasha Nein, who I met through the Collab Cage, a rather awesome group with awesome people.

    A really odd occurrence at work today

    So I was busily working away today (finished fifteen minutes early today because the team is awesome) and the topic of 90's nostalgic television came up and as it deserves to be, Buffy the Vampire Slayer was a big talking point. I tried to argue that Xena: Warrior Princess was better, but they weren't having it. Anyway... One of my friends started talking about one of her favourite episodes and

    Consarn it, you guys

    So after a few months of patiently watching the follower count creep from 90 to 96, I decided to reward my loyal followers with a "100 follower special" fic. I started it the other day, (the one I talked about in my previous blog about getting 2500 words down in one day) and wouldn't you know it?

    4 followers like that. *clicks fingers*

This is pretty much just to get the other blog post off of the top of the list.

Although I have been considering writing a quick second person fic for fun lately. Just to see how it would go over. Second person fics are popular, so if I write one, will the universe break? Will it be like a cat landing on it's face? Toast landing butter side up?

Maybe.

Probably.

I hate second person fics. It always feels like the author's trying to tell me what to do.

Are they popular? I seem to see plenty of them on the feature box... or at least I used to... but I hate them with a passion. I dunno, maybe I just can't immerse myself in the story well enough, but I don't have that problem with regular fics.

Yeah, I'm not a fan of them either. Therrizen always tells me to read more of them, but I'm not convinced.

They're definitely popular. Although it might just be second person fics of the clop variety as they're the ones I see in the featured box most often.

I dunno, I tried reading Red Thrush Academy after the big brou-ha-ha about it, but I couldn't really get into it. Maybe just because it made it quite certain that I was reading from the perspective of a dude and I'm not really into that.

693713 First of all, I'm insulted that you got my name wrong D:

Secondly, don't you paint me as the bad guy here. I simply pointed out that there are some really good second person fics, and you should try them out, broaden your horizons. I know, I know, that's like asking me to read a FlutterDash, but hey, at least I read a few of them before I passed my bone crushing judgement =P
