Author's Pre-Note
Hi, it's me, Allie, the author of this story!
* Don't hit back yet, if you don't want to read my note/summary, just click "Next" and you'll get to Chapter 1! Thanks *
*** Disclaimer: This is my disclaimer for the whole story from Chapter 1 until the last chapter! I do not own ANYTHING; everything belongs to the talented Ally Carter.
This is my first Fan-Fiction story, called "The Mission of My Life."
Right now, it's a work in progress, and I'm not sure where I want to go with it. At the end of the story (for the time being), if you have any ideas for the next chapter, I would love it if you would Inbox me or Rate/Review your ideas! If I like your idea and decide to use it, I'll give you a shout-out at the beginning of the chapter. I'd love to hear your ideas!
I'm also not one of those authors that beg you to Rate & Review. If nobody Rates & Reviews, I'm not going to stop writing. There might be one person out there reading it and I'm not going to ruin it for them for my own selfish reasons! (However, I would appreciate your feedback so I can make it better for whoever's reading it!)
This story will include:
-Zammie, Zammie, Zammie, Zach + Cammie! I love Zammie!
-Be aware that the Zammie will not be sudden. When I read Fan-Fiction stories, I think it's cheesy when Zach and Cammie are mad at each other and suddenly fall in love. I'm making the Zammie gradual.
-I think Zach and Cammie are perfect for each other, so I'm not putting Zach with Bex or Cammie with Jonas or anything silly like that. It's Zach + Cammie = Perfect in all of my Gallagher Girl stories.
-Action/Fighting (typical mission stuff)
-The beginning might be slow, but please just stick with me. In the story, their mission is a year-long one, so I'm not going to put anything Climax-worthy right in the beginning, and then the rest would just be boring. I like to build up the suspense and mystery and then have a complete plot twist! So just be aware that there will be action, just not right away.
-Drama/Breakup scenes
-I love stories with drama. I'm definitely putting some drama between Cammie and Zach and there's already a flashback to the terrible night of their breakup!
-Happy Ending
-If you're one of those people that love seeing the main character brutally murdered in a violent fashion, I'm sorry, but this story isn't for you.
-Hints
-If I leave you on a cliff-hanger, I'm going to give you a hint of what happens next time and give you a little note or something fun for when you've finished reading.
This story will not include:
-Unrealistic events
-I'm not going to have Macey, Bex, Grant, Jonas, Liz, and everyone just show up suddenly with no reason. That's not realistic. There may be some stretches – Zach and Cammie being paired up being one of them – but without that, what would be the point? There's going to be some stuff that you'll say, "Yeah, right, sure that would happen," but nothing that will make you say, "This is ridiculous. What's wrong with this writer? I'm not reading this stupid thing anymore." (Believe me, some stories are so stupid like that).
-Bad grammar/spelling
-I hate reading a story that doesn't capitalize or is like "then shee sed," or anything with bad grammar. Some people have really good story ideas but I just can't take reading their story. My actually writing style and imagery might not be the best out there, but I can guarantee that I will have proper grammar and spelling so that it's readable.
-Incredibly short chapters
-I think it's really annoying when an author updates after like, five months, with a chapter that's two paragraphs. Therefore, whenever I update, I'm making it a nice, long chapter and not making anyone stop reading because of how short my chapters are.
-Slow updating
-Some authors say, "I'm updating when you Rate & Review," or, "I have the story finished, I'm just updating every week," and then forget, or "I'm keeping you hanging!" I'm going to update as soon as a chapter is a reasonable length. I already have a substantial amount of my story written and I'm uploading it all today. I don't like reading stories that seem really good but have only like, two chapters!
-Summaries
-Sorry, but I think it's ridiculous when an author gives a summary. If the person was reading your story, they should know what's happening, and if not, they can go back and read what they missed.
That's it! If you read that, I appreciate it! I'm glad you took the time to read all my ranting and complaints ;)
Oh, and no hate reviews, please. I'm doing this story for you and if you don't like it or have something mean to say, just stop reading. I will accept constructional criticism, nothing rude or mean, though. Thanks!
I hope you enjoy my story! Click "Next," I can't wait for you to read Chapter 1!
