Ok. Thanks, everyone. I guess I kinda knew the reason for the uncomfortable (for me) amount of sex in most fanfics, but just didn't want to acknowledge it. I'll admit that they do interest me and pull me in quite easily.

Actually, I got an idea last night for a funny, though very disturbing, one that reveals just what sort of special "lessons" Koharu inflicted upon poor Chun after the sumo classes. The outline in my head was a little too much for me, though, as it leaves Chun very confused and possibly with a sumo fetish. (though that leaves it open for a sequel! lol)

Which reminds me of something else. I'm a little relieved to see, after reading a few fanfics, that there are others who see koharu as the kind of person who would knock someone down and have her way with them. I thought I was the only one getting that vibe from her.

I'll think about writing something in the future, but I may be starting some classes of my own soon, so I'm not sure when I'll have time to write.

In the meantime, I'd like to offer light proofreading services to anyone who would like me to quickly run over their stories and look for problems or errors, as I have noticed many. I understand that not everone here natively writes in English, and I actually look up to anyone who is able to write stories, let alone sentences, in a language foreign to them. However, if anyone has English related questions (native speakers or not), I'd be happy to try to help. Keep in mind, though, that I'm quite terrible with punctuation and I can't say that my grammar is 100% perfect. Anyway, just send me a PM if you want a litle help!

umm... maxemerg: after reading ur post... it almost seems like u've got the idea that sex is something nessesery in fanfic
if u got that impression I must tell u it's all wrong :)
fanfics can be anything
and even if u want to write fem slash, u still chose what level u want it on
if u want it funny and cute, make it funny and cute
if u want it sweet, make it a sweet story
same thing if u want it romantic, passionate or pervy (although u should consider carfully what u post in this category)
It's all up to u and I'll be glad to read ur fics in the future

^Yeah I agree with you.

@slayer: mkay...I'll write a happy ending......maybe...B) :wub:

I also have to bring out the fact that don't open various fanfic threads if you haven't even finished one of them yet.

Reina=Queen(spanish)+Reina=Perfect(japanese)=Reina is a perfect queen.

:whistle: So, are you still sure you're qualified? XD

XD I feel that I'm at least qualified to be a possible resource. I was just saying that I'm not some kind of supreme deity of the English language. I'm always trying to improve myself and I won't say I know something when I really don't. I was also sort of downplaying any confidence that I may have. I don't want to seem full of myself or anything like that, because I'm really not. I apologize if I seemed to insult anyone. That was definitely not my intention. ;)

umm... maxemerg: after reading ur post... it almost seems like u've got the idea that sex is something nessesery in fanfic (trimmed) It's all up to u and I'll be glad to read ur fics in the future

Nah. I know it's not a requirement. The sumo lesson idea was just a silly thought I had. I have a sense of humor that is often difficult to understand.

Thanks for your last comment. I've really felt like writing for the past few weeks but I haven't had anything I really wanted to write about. I'm sure I'll come up with something soon.

LMAO, I wanna read that!! I always thought Koha was a bit of a perv, I dont know but I can't see her letting someone else take control.
Anyway, I think this thread was a great idea. It's fun reading everybody's thoughts on different fanfics.

No no. I DO understand. It's a very funny idea. I'm just saying that u can write it in a way u find comfotable
it's not just all or nothing.. there are things in between (lol am I making sense??) :blink:
just read a bit of what people here write and look at the different ways people write (not to mention diffrent concepts for storys) hey might give u an idea what to write yourself

when next to Chun... well that's one thing.... but Koha is Sayu's first Kouhai and I doubt she's let Koha forget that..

:lol: Are you serious? :lol:

I thought the bad grammar makes the story more charming... after all, I was under the impression that no H!P artiste speaks good English!

@ faraithi well, grammar is important because it would be hard to describe something or a feeling/emotion if your grammar isnt that good.
The language we use here is english, so prolly most of us speaking/read/write in english. You see, if i dnt knw how to speak proper english right now. what im trying to explain to you right now would come out...quite differently. this is why grammar is important.

and those simple past,present and future tenses are good help for writing. it makes things easier for the reader to understand. and i know most of us here would want the readers to understand the fics easily and all~ :]

:lol: So, who would be truly qualified to decide if/when a fanfic is grammatically good enough to be posted in the forum?

I'm quite amused that you guys are taking all these fanfics so seriously! :lol:

Maybe you all should submit your fanfics to the Moderators for editing first, before posting them in the forum! :lol:

@ faraithi ah, well.. if u want people to understand what you write, like a flowing text you might want the spelling and grammar checked. and it's harder (not to mention less satisfying) to read a text in bad english.. :]]

Do you mean you feel good about having your questions answered by me, or about answering my questions?
Or do you mean that I feel good about those same 2 things?
