Hi there! You just found my sockpuppet account!

Why do I have a sockpuppet account? Well, believe it or not, there are a lot of authors on FF.net who can't take criticism. Some of them will even go as far as to leave nasty netspeak reviews or report otherwise good stories for TOS violations just because the author was honest in their reviews. So I use this name to review stories in case some immature fanbrat and her friends decides to come after me and get my account banned for no reason.

Before you email me to yell at me. Read this first.

Yes, I can write. Yes, I have written fan fiction. I am not psychic and I don't know whether or not I like a story until I have read it. No, I am not jealous of your (probably) non-existent talent. I don't have to show you anything I have written. I don't have to write a story to review yours. (Ever heard of Roger Ebert?) A person is not a whore just because they hate your story. You should have read the rules before you submitted your story. You can't write whatever you want if your story violates the site rules. No, I am not a bully at school. Yes, I have a life outside of this. No one wants to read your fantasies. We have our own. Mary Sues and OCs are not the same thing. Free speech also lets me give my opinion on your story. Just because it's a fanfic doesn't mean you don't have to do research or ignore canon. Slapping "AU" into a summary doesn't automatically give you license to do whatever you want. The review pages are not message boards. Just because you have thousands of positive reviews, that doesn't mean that your story is actually good. Go check and see how many of those reviewers actually went into detail and gave you pointers and how many of them used netspeak.

Thank you and have a nice day.
