My Fic R0><0r! STFU! I'm leaving the fandom!
Once upon a time a prolific author received (her first?) criticism in her guest book, which she thoughtfully reproduced on her livejournal:

From my guestbook :P

You have an excellent grasp on plot, but I wish all your characters didn't sound the same. After a while, they all start behaving similarly (smarmy lovey dovey elves) and that is kinda sad. Your stories would benefit from less pairings and more charactarization.

LOL ---> I guess this was one person who didn't vote for me in that contest in which I won some awards! LOL

Giggling...

Morgana


Her fans leap to her defense, defending their mistress and threaten the miscreants who dared insult their bewuvved.

Let me at her!! A wet mackerel's not enough to knock her out! Would anyone kindly lend me a bow and a poisoned-tipped arrow? Lady M, your fics are the most amazing AMAZING stories alive! Plus you're my most favorite fic writer also!! Don't listen to those flamers Lady M! They probably couldn't write for sh@%t! 'Scuse my french. I'm practically steaming right now....>:

This goes on for a bit, and things settle down but then, wait – OMG MORE PEOPLE CHIME IN AGREEING WITH THE CRITICSM!

...I just don't think you should disregard what someone says because you don't like it. How can you get better if you don't pay attention to constructive critiscm? Which is what I think that person was trying to do, not flame.

Hellfire and damnation! Morgana fights back! As we all know, in this situation there’s only one thing to do:
Threaten to leave the fandom:
You know what?

I am going to take a looooong break.

Nothing I do or say seems to be 'right' so why bother when no one is listening?

Signing off...

Don't expect me back for quite some time. I need a break from this fandom. I hope everyone is pleased now. No more fan fic from Morgana. Maybe the critics can take over and produce some fics as they seem to know better?

bye
morgana



Crying ensues...well, kinda

Morgana decides she can’t totally abandon her fans. Shocked, shocked I say.


*In the interest of full disclosure I do write in this fandom, but, like the other fandoms in which I participate in, I’m slow to update and stay in my corner.</i>
