Question of the Day Part 5

FrickingKaos:
Aww mare. You're making me blush here. I am writing suspense but it's science fiction. Weird World...I am having fun with it. Other than that I haven't had any ideas for a new suspense. I loved writing it. Right now I've been working on the new one, which I might be posting if I ever come up with a title.

mare:
^ good to know you're writing suspense still. Good luck with your new story!

Nope, not at all! lol :)

I finally did the review thing lol

I have about 78 stories on the site so it was hard going through them to find some that stood out to me. There are a lot of reviews that really make me smile. Actually every review does that, even the YAY! or update!!! etc.. so it was really hard to pick. I went with these three though.

This was from Refuse concerning Shadow Woods because she had the exact reaction I was hoping for and she was also one of the very first people I read when I started writing fanfic so to see a random review from her made me smile.

Spec-Tac-U-Lar. :) You had me guessing what the heck was going on until right at the sit down talk with "Kevin" and "Casper". Right when they started talking it hit me. *smacks forehead* He's battling the choice of life and death... Through the whole story... WoW.

Excellent writing. Fantastic delivery. What a trip! It took me a while to get back to the site and finish reading it, but it was TOTALLY worth it. *thumbs up*

Awesome finishing line by Nick. It summed up the story and the fight that was fought quite well.

"Life."

This one is for The Lion's Den, which out of all the things I wrote, I lacked the most confidence in. It was the only one that featured Howie as the lead and from the start I thought it was terrible but this one gave me some confidence, again because it was someone I looked up to when I first started out.

I think this is my favorite story from you yet, Mare (and you know I love the Mizpah trilogy...aw heck, I've loved everything I've read from you. I love conspiracies and this was a whopper--but a believable whopper. Very cool!

This last one I picked because it was for one of my Original Fiction stories and of course I find those the absolute scariest ones to post. So to see someone I admire, take the time to even read it, made me smile!

The title of this one attracted my attention, and I thought it was great, Mare! So many of the situations poor Lima had to go through in a single school day are things that I and probably most girls could relate to... dealing with the popular girls... the hot guy who can smile at you and make your whole day even though you know you have no chance with him... the fear that you're gonna bleed through your pants before you can take care of it, or that you smell cause you're sweating so bad LOL. What a nice little nostalgia trip back to high school there. =P

The end, though... wow. I wasn't expecting it to end that way. I thought it was really sad, but I liked it because it was deep, and it was unexpected. Fantastic job!!

It's funny because looking back on some of these, like The Lion's Den it was before you could respond to your feedback on the site so all of the reviews for this one were left unanswered. I can't even tell you how tempted I was to go back and respond now but people would be like, wtf? When they get a random, thanks for the review, sorry it took me a while to get back to you!  8 years later lmao

Here's another question:

What are some of the things you have read within the last year? What made you click on it and did you stick with it or plan on sticking with it until it's finished? Is it updated frequently? Does the author know you're reading it?
