Fic Talk > General Discussion
Just venting a lil bit of frustration at the fan fic world...
LenniluvsBrian:
Personally [though, I don't think I'm reading any of your fics at the moment - heh], I don't usually read the sex scenes. I'll read a bit of it, then skim through the rest of it until the point they're finished. I'm more into what else is going on in the story, rather than just the sex - though, I do sometimes cheer when the people I want to hook up finally do so. But don't let just one person make you feel bad or feel like you have to write more sex scenes. Write what YOU want & your reads will either love it or hate it - but write mostly for you, & not them.
What is with all the crazy/upsetting reviews lately???

I don't think I've ever had that kind of review, but like everyone else has said... ignore that one reader. If sex scenes are all she's looking for... there are plenty of vizzies out there with her name on it. You write for the sake of writing, not to please everyone. Do it for you.
There's something up with a few readers lately. They've been flaming and being downright rude about it.

There has been, which has made me a bit iffy on posting one of my darker fics LOL.
But as the others said. Write for yourself, thats what matters. If they want nothing but sex they can get it elsewhere.

People have been flaming you? Please let us know the next time that happens. You shouldn't be getting flamed by anyone on AC! Ugh! That annoys me!!

OKay I am playing devil's advocate at the moment. I just went and read what that girl said to you Mel and I honestly don't think she meant it in a bad way at all. It seemed like an innocent question. I just think sometimes the readers get so into the story that they kind of just start picturing things they want it to be in their heads. If nothing else that's just a huge compliment to you as a writer. And I guess your sex scenes rock! lol
I thought your reply to her was excellent. :)
And like everyone else said, as long as you are writing for you just nod and grin and move on lol I have a feeling no matter what you write, that girl will still read it.
And Rose, post your story! When it gets to the point that we are afriad to post because of what people might say, it sucks the fun out or writing. lol
