(Amy, go and add yerself to the fanfiction page if ya want, or if anyone wants to find the link, it's in the recommended section from Monica)I agree, C2's are great...I have joined in one D/G, I own one D/G, and joined one SnapeAngst. Ginny Weasley n' the Curse of the First Born is awesome...She updated a day or two ago and I was like YESSSS and she does what I don't do, she writes looooooong chapters...lol and While you Were Sleeping...I hope she hasn't abaondoned it either...But I have a feeling she has, it's been forever since she's updated. I was so into that one, too...possibly my favorite fic ever if she would just finish it lol

Hm...How about keep emailing her or something to annoy her to finish it? I've just started reading this fic the other day and the person hadn't updated for like...almost half a year already. But I've emailed her and she told me that she was going to continue with the fic.

lol...But when you annoy someone to no ends, they might blow up on you or something. But yeah, it is a good feeling when someone praises you about your writing ^^. So yeah, go bug the author, The Private Eye. lol...

You know which fics are really good? Post-Hogwarts fics. I don't know why but I like the idea of all those kids being out on their own and out of school.

I like Post Hogwarts ones too because you can make the characters different. You can say the war changed them or something happened and someone died and all kinds of new stuff can be done! i love me some PH action! l love me some C2 too! lol I add to Amy's (since i'm staff) and I've added some perty good ones in there

Kekeke...I like both time periods of fanfics if, like I have said before, they are well-written.

Well writen is ALWAYS key. Even if it's a cliche plot, if it looks sounds IS good, it's good.

Yeah. Some people could actually make really, really worn out plots sound really, really good. Like, some plots are really overused. But then this author just comes out and you get this really refreshing writing that makes the plot seems not that overused at all.

It's amazing how that works! It's like... you try to stay away from that cliche (example: in Draco/Hermione fics the whole Head Girl / Head Boy thing is used so often I want to vomit) but some of my favourite stories are based on cliches. That's the power with words, if you put them in the right order you can get people liking/believing anything.

I LOVE POST HOGWARTS!! Almost all my fics are Post Hogwarts, because you don't have to worry so much about OOCness. I <3 it

Yeah, I've noticed I like mine either PH or Out of Hogwarts For Another Reason (lol being ADSU) LLLG is Post Hogwarts, all my oneshots are contest fics, so i don't have a choice in the matter there lol but i think lengthy fics are easier to write post Hogwarts because you don't have to write about class and you're free-er to do things with their days without having them get detention for skipping class btw, i use abbreviations for all my stories: ADSU is A Darkness So Uncommon, LLLG is Live, Love, and Let Go and if you ever see FICC, it's First Impressions Can Change, which I took down and deleted it, going to rewrite it, because it sucked!

Are you registered at Fanfiction.net? I'd like you read your work!
Post Hogwarts makes writing easier, then you can mold the characters into something different. Older.

yeah, i'm registered lol i'll go add myself to the authors page soon lol
i think it's easier too, but you'd think it'd be harder because you've got to imagine them older, but not OOC, so it's weird..
