Couple more plugs

First off we have a nice Slice of Life story by Snapp Apple called Invasion of the Candy Snatchers! Don't let the Dark tag scare you away; there's zero violence and it's about as scary as the first story arc of the IDW comics. Also, I should probably mention that I helped the author edit it, so I might be biased.

Next we have a wonderful and informative blog post by Garnot on the subject of mary sue characters. He goes very in depth on what the term really means on the basis of what would hinder the enjoyment of a particular story.
