Question of the day part 10
mare:
I don't think there are any names that make me say ugh! But once again, I usually stay far away from stories that have that potential anyway LOL I do hate the trendy spellings of things instead of the traditional ones!

I am not a big fan of having the family members around either, although sometimes it's unavoidable if you're trying to keep it realistic. I literally cannot write Jane Carter without taking her to Crazytown (which is really not so far from reality, sadly), so I try to avoid writing her at all costs these days.

Exactly. Sometimes you need them in there. It made sense that Aaron was there and Jane to for a brief time, I just wanted them to go away after a chapter or two! LOL
I really don't mind when the family members pop up in stories as long as they don't make themselves too comfortable. I'd be that person who was secretly trying to find them a hotel room instead of letting them stay with me! LOL
RokofAges75:
LOL!

Have you ever been so turned off by something in a story that had nothing to do with the actual storyline or writing style that you stopped reading or at least thought about stopping? Feel free to share specific examples of little things that have annoyed you like that, as long as you're not going to hurt anyone's feelings!

Bad spelling. Literally. Bad spelling. It doesn't take too much to use Google and still, in the Italian fandom, there are so many bad spelling of names (Bryan. ??? ??? ??? How can you mistake one of the BSB's name? How?), cities... that I can't keep on reading.
RokofAges75:
Misspelling one of the Boys' names is the worst!!! I see it most often with Brian's last name; a lot of people only put one L at the end. Even Howie did it the other day on Twitter!!!
A lot of people used to misspell Millennium back in the day and only put one N. The reason I know that Millennium has 2 Ns is because IT'S THE NAME OF THEIR ALBUM, so I LEARNED HOW TO FREAKING SPELL IT! No excuse! And don't even get me started on "Don't Wanna LOOSE You Now." I am so fanatical about that one, I made a freaking avatar about it!
