--- Quote from: julilly on July 09, 2013, 08:14:05 AM ---I think there was all of ten ppl on the site then lol random sidebar but I was chatting with Hannah the other day and ended up looking through my reviews (that I've left) on my account. SO MANY of them are on your stories... A DECADE AGO. I was like omg AC really is ten years old lol That was three years before we even became mods!

I feel like a dinosaur sometimes! lol aww I should do that too! I haven't ever gone back and looked at that before.

Do you do any writing in "real life" outside of fanfic?
I am in the midst of trying to write quite a few novels right now. I keep bouncing back and forth between them and can't seem to just focus on one! As far as work, I'm usually the one people come to when they need to say something and can't figure out how to put it into words. I'm also constantly writing short stories and songs for school.
mare:
Because of what Julilly just said, this is a fun question and I guess shows you how much you actually participate in the leaving feedback area!
How many reviews have you left on the site according to your statistics? (granted it would probably be more before we moved servers awhile ago)
Carter-Orange:
Has anyone ever written a part like that that DID get a negative reaction from readers who think they went too far? I don't think so. I know a few people weren't too happy when I killed the New Kids off in Save A Prayer though lol.
What's the most extreme, "Oh no you di-in't!" type part you've ever written? Maybe the bot flies scene or the plane crash in Save A Prayer
What extreme scenes have shocked you in other people's stories? I don't really shock that easy when it comes to reading. So I won't say I was shocked, but at first I was a little wary of reading a story about a child killer (Protect And Serve). Also the scene in SFTU where Brian kills his zombie family had the 'wow factor' because up until then I don't think we knew they were going to turn into zombies.
Carter-Orange:
On average, how many reviews do you get per update? Depends on the story, between 0 and 12. I can't believe I actually had 12 reviews for one chapter of a story!
How has the amount of feedback you receive changed over the years you've been writing? It's about the same really as some stories seem more popular than others, which is fine because I know they won't appeal to everyone.
Which do you prefer when it comes to reviews, quality or quantity? It is nice when someone leaves more than just a "update soon", but I'm grateful for all my reviews and am just glad to see people like some of my stuff.
Do you remember the first piece of feedback you got for a fanfic? No, I can't remember exactly. It was for one of my old Take That stories though.
What was the first story you posted that surprised you with the amount of feedback it got? Ten Things. I really didn't expect it to get the amount of readers it got as I was typing whatever popped into my head and sometimes it didn't flow as well as I would've liked. Also, there are a couple of major plot mistakes towards the beginning, but no one seemed to mention it.
