So. 22 views on my fic · 1:31am Mar 25th, 2012
Maybe I should have adhered to Lucefudu's advice and send it in on Monday. Cause my fic I've worked so hard on has gotten less views than even my fic than Not Twilight in a 24 hour period, and Not Twilight I wrote in 20 minutes.
I need more watchers. I need to stop making blogs to vent my frustration. EqD needs to email me back about my fic. uuuggghhhh.
I will read it sometime. Have around 210 other fictions to read.
Man, I feel rude right now. You've been such a help to me, and up to now, I haven't even checked out your fics myself.
I'll go give this new one a read. In the meantime, why is Monday such a good day to post a fic, anyway?
Aaaaaand read it. Well, that looks like an okay start. Dark isn't really my genre, but at least you make a good effort on making the reader ask 'What is happening?', which is always good.
I noticed some awkward sentences here and there, though, in addition to a few other things I would have done differently. Want me to return a favour and give you some more in-depth comments through Google Docs?

I would really like that, thank you: Red Sky Doc
Apparently it's good to send it in at a certain time on Monday cause it stays on the front page for about 8 hours. Also, don't feel bad about not checking out my stuff. I helped you out because I like to help people out and I find pre-reading fun, not because I want them to read my stuff! So don't worry about it.
44223 Done. Hope it's any good for you.
On a matter completely unrelated, can I count on you to preread the rest of my story as well?
Just asking, no obligations, certainly not calling in favours. You've been a big help on the first chapter, and I still haven't found anyone else.
44345 Oh yeah, of course! I was going to do so yesterday, but other things got in the way. I would be more than happy to, and also to preread for chapters you haven't uploaded yet. That's what I'm here for!
44350 I've said it before, and I'll say it again: You're a legend!
44354 Well thank you. Just something I noticed on the first chapter though, the formatting is getting odd in some parts. Some parts are indented a little too far or it just looks weird. Probably just a few little errors, or you copy and pasted things from the doc I made into the actual story. Either way, I would get that checked out! I'll have the second chapter done probably in a few hours at the most. I'm working on a one shot based off a dream I had last night! I just HAD to write it down before I forgot about it!
44356 Yeah, the formatting is a problem. I uploaded it from a google doc of my own, and it came out like this. I've tried my best to brush it up a little, but I couldn't get it all right.
Terribly annoying.
44364 Looking through the document you preread for me, you bring up a lot of good points I hadn't thought about before. You are the legend!
44376 I spend all 22 years of my life reading comic books and novels, watching live action television and animation, playing videogames and tabletop RPGs. And in the rare moments I wasn't doing any of those things, I'd be reading TVTropes.org
I've become quite an expert on the theory of narrative.
44385 I've spent all 16 years of my life... doing nothing! Then I wanted to do something with my life so I began writing and studying a lot of English!... Here I am!.... :D!
