I'm just a random guy. I'm typically quiet and introverted, though I have a stronger personality online than I do in person. I believe the same things online or off, but anonymity is a more affective shot of courage than even hard whiskey, so I tend to be more vocal in defense of my ideals on the internet. This doesn't mean that I'm insufferable, however. I'll never start a fight just because I feel like being contrary. I'd have to have a good reason, and in my opinion, there are very seldom any good reasons to fight. I've loved writing since I was a small child. It helped me through some tough times with OCD and chronic depression. I credit writing with nothing less than saving my life. I'm writing a full length novel at the moment, and I'm hoping that I may actually be able to bring myself to attempt to publish this one. But in the mean time, I'll be writing some fan fiction for my enjoyment, and hopefully the enjoyment of a wider audience. Know that I consider this a learning experience. Writing is important to me, but not so important that I can't accept criticism. In my mind, the only thing worse than finding out that I'm a poor writer now is finding out that I'm a poor writer ten years from now, so if you take issue with the QUALITY of my writing, I'd appreciate constructive criticism. Even if I suck, I'd rather know that I suck and strive to improve than live in a dream world of pillows and sunshine. However, if you're one of the morality-obsessed, righteous defenders of public decency that happens to spring up every so often to rant and rave about the moral decay of society and claim that what I write is somehow sick, twisted, or perverse, know that I don't value your opinion on anything, and I'll simply ignore and delete your messages without changing my writing at all. Criticism of quality is welcomed. Attacks against subject matter, themes, and personal insults are worthless, and will be discarded without reply. If I write M-rated material, I'll rate it M, and that'll be the end of it. We have a rating system for a reason, and rest assured that I'll use it accurately. In case anyone is interested (I doubt they are), I'm currently attending college to become a high school English teacher, so I welcome grammatical corrections in reviews posted to my fanfics. |
