I got an awfully nice review from Emily on the epilogue of Antidote: True Love the other day:
Honestly, that was the best story I have ever read, and I've read a lot. Story was not too long and yet not rushed, the characters were developped extremely well, and no one was OOC. It was brilliant! You did such a fantastic job! And what I liked most about your story was Shira. She was an OC, right? I mean, wow. She fit in perfectly! I could actually see her being a character in the harry potter series, she was so well done.
Overall, I'm amazed. There was a perfect balance of everything in this story. You are truly a great author. It'll be really hard for me to read another series now that I've read yours. I don't think any others can even come close to comparing.
Keep writing, you're amazing!
I don't think I've ever gotten a bad review, most of them are good, only some are semi good. But that review made me want to write more again. I've been pretty lazy about writing lately, and of course semi unable because of the spinal disc herniation. But that is certainly on its way to be better, some days are worse than others, but there's certainly improvement. So because I am now more able to do what I want in front of the computer as long as I take breaks often, and remember to walk as much as I can and slowly start exercising to rebuild my muscle strength, I will try very very hard to write more.
My old habit of opening first Word and then Opera whenever I start the computer is broken. I now only open Opera and then Firefox, to deal with my FarmTown and FarmVille and those applications. Now, I will work on getting that old habit back, with a tweak. First Word, then Opera, and then Firefox.
But before I devote my time to the two new stories I have in mind, I will read through Spell? Curse? Hex? Potion? and Antidote: True Love and edit out any spelling or grammar mistakes and stuff like that. After that, perhaps I have gotten so back into the habit of opening Word and writing, that the two new stories will write themselves like SCHP and ATL did.
So now, I will finish the game of Cover Orange 2 and start figuring out a routine for fixing SCHP and ATL. I can't just open the story in Word and go from there, because I have to upload the changes to HPFF, FF.net and A Sinful Fantasy. And crazy me just had an idea (hey, that rhymed)! How about starting another blog, a blog where I can post my fanfiction! That is just crazy, but I'll think about it nonetheless.
Oh, and I've finished reading Dangerverse. Or at least everything that's posted so far. I haven't read the oneshots and side stories of what happen in between Dangerverse chapters, but I will get to that. I really recommend you read Dangerverse. I will try to make a post with a proper review of the series. In the mean time, you can find the stories here at whydoyouneedtoknow's profile at FF.net. The order of reading is:
- Living With Danger
- Living Without Danger
- Dealing With Danger
- Facing Danger
Until next time, happy reading! And thank you, Emily, for the review!
