Something like whining?

[scarletmorning]

Sooooo, I just spontaneously remembered the Mary Sue contest. And I don't really feel like participating. Besides, I'm not really sure if my OC really is a Gary Stu. I mean, if I can give you very good reasons for why he is who he is (and those are awesome and hilarious reasons), is he still a Gary Stu? I mean, it's not that he's overpowered. Apart from that thing he's pretty normal. (But he's hilarious.) I don't know. I don't feel like writing the story anyway. And writing FE7 is sooo hard ;o;

I also thought a few hours ago -- I was editing my Seth/Tana friendship fic -- that maybe I should get a beta to read it. There are just a few sentences that look very strange to me.

On the other hand... I have an irrationally strong aversion against people reading my stuff over my shoulder (figuratively). I mean, it would just be about grammar. The beta, of course, may voice his opinion and I will think about it... but I still want to do things my way. I HATE it if I can't do things my way.

This doesn't really makes sense to me, because I WANT constructive criticism. I want to become better. It's... I'm just strange. It's a personality thing. For example; if I'm writing something and somebody comes up, looks over my shoulder and asks me what I'm writing, then I just want to punch that person. I absolutely cannot stand that. I mean, get away, you may read it when it's finished. Not before. After that you can criticise me.

Yeah, it's strange. I still don't know what to do about that.

Also, yay for Fado icon~ I love the three kings of Magvel; Fado, Hayden and Vigarde. There should be awesome fic about them.

Yeah, but I don't think that you need one. I on the other hand...
