Fic Talk > I Challenge You....
The Second Annual readers challenge! :)
carterkid:
Sorry, Mare I would like to add more to my answers for the following.
Is there anything that you would feel uncomfortable reading? horror and no romance
Comments or questions? Two of my stories listed has an ex-cowriter who helped,Is that okay?
mare:
You guys do realize this is a reading CHALLENGE, right? I mean if we all just read things we wanted to read it wouldn't be a challenge. I can understand if you feel uncomfortable reading about something like sex, rape, etc... but I feel like maybe we're starting to be a little too picky?
Something to think about.
I mean I hate NKOTB so much I can't even type it without cringing or my eye twitching lol and if I had to read a NKOTB story I know i'd probably hate it, but part of the challenge would be to read something out of my comfort zone and lord knows they are as out of my comfort zone as I could get. Now if they all were mating with each other like rabid bunnies i'd steer away from it although probably accurate because reading obsessive amount of sex makes me literally uncomfortable, does that make sense? I guess what i'm saying is there's a difference between being uncomfortable and just not liking something.
That being said, it's also going to be very hard to keep you guys away from all the elements you're asking for. No worries Krystle about the vampire stories, since that's what you read last year I wouldn't make you read the same thing this year. :)
Just putting that out there.
Purpura Lipstick:
but NKOTB is right up there with graphic rape sex for me.... *blinks* I don't see the difference. LOL...
I honestly don't care what story I get put with. ... except for the visuals, slash visuals... lol
mare:
Yeah, honestly me too but you know what I mean, right? I feel like my ears are violated every time I am forced to listen to them LOL
I mean NKOTB are douchbags but if I had to read a story with them as the main characters i'd read it (pretending they weren't them to get through it) but i'd read it. I couldn't do the same with slash or visuals though. I know I wouldn't be able to get through those.
Rose:
I was thinking the same thing myself. Flat out visuals make me extremely uncomfortable. While straight up romances I just don't like, but I read it last year cause it was out of my comfort zone. The whole point of this is to challenge yourself.
