Wow, this story is getting the exact reaction I wanted. Man, it just turned out perfectly! I heard somewhere that all Twilight fans are far less intelligent than other book readers. I set out to prove that that was wrong. The first (or one of the first) review I got was the one I responded to and gave it an entire second chapter. I was kinda disappointed that the first flame I got was just an insult and not an argument. But I went with it. The third and fourth (roughly) reviews were really well thought out!
Though, I kinda hate that they weren't signed reviews, but that's alright. It gives me a chance to respond and write this. *smiles* Okie dokie, here we go. This was from Nia:
To be honest although I am a firm believer in allowing everyone their opinion
I'm not sure this was a productive use of time. I read it because to be honest
I found the anemic faerie bit funny and thought it might actually be
entertaining in the least but found only that I was impressed that for such
immature and childish writing the spelling and grammar were good. I'm also
unsure why you decided to put this onto a site where the large majority are
twilight fans yet seem to take great offence in a flame. So much so that you
would put up an entire chapter about them. I'm all up for people who dislike
books/movies etc to write stories but a rushed childish one is a waste of
their time and mine when you can use so many angles as I gather you have read
the books and have thus seen the many humourous points to be exploited.
I hate to be a stickler but, Nia, you spelled 'humorous' wrong. Lol. And you comment on my spelling? Anywho! Onto the reply! *cheesy grin* Lol. I totally love that you found the Anemic Faerie part funny. I heard it from a friend and used it. Actually, lol, she told me that if I didn't use it she'd stuff plot bunnies down my throat until I suffocated on them. XD I didn't really take offense, as I said, the review disappointed me in the fact that it was just an insult.
This one is from Lilith. (I love your name BTW! I hope you know her Lore!)
If you are the vampire in this little thing, you have written yourself into
your own fiction: I shall name thee Mary Sue.
I have read intelligent, well thought out parodies and satires of books I
love; when the satire is well reasoned, I am fine with accepting that some of
my favorite stories are not perfect.
Jane Eyre can take some critigue, as long as the author who is attempting
satire is willing to sacrifice a year to analyzing it, and framing their
issues with the book with some care; it is the least such a great book
deserves.
While S. Meyers does not deserve a year (in my opinion), I believe ANY author
deserves more than the five minutes you have given this.
If you want respect for your little parodies, show a minimum (if that is all
you can manage) of respect to the authors you are going after.
Hiya Lilith! I'd like to say that no, I am not the vampire in this. Lol. For one, there's no such thing as vampires. Haven't you heard of first person writing? Anyways, (asides from the misspelling of 'critique' and getting all defensive) your review was funny. I dunno why, I just started giggling. I didn't take five minutes to analyze the book because I've read them and I remember what happened. I don't really think that writing a story requires one to analyze the entire series. Lol.
Have a fabulous existence y'all!
