1 as usual, and 2 just to make sure it's seen by people who track it? the kprompt mention probably depends on how much you'd like to pimp it out in all kinds of places. but probably not 3 unless your fill also applies to a prompt in kprompts, because these are two different things.

(Anonymous) 2013-06-25 09:31 pm (UTC)(link)
in all honestly i'd rather not post it in a comm at all. idk if the prompter is even still in fandom though but i want to at least make an attempt to give them a chance to see it if they're interested

(Anonymous) 2013-06-25 09:44 pm (UTC)(link)
i was just thinking about this but i agree with anon above option 1 is probably the best bet

(Anonymous) 2013-06-25 10:03 pm (UTC)(link)
if you just want your prompter to see your fill and be happy with it, then just go with 2 :) i feel you about comm posting

(Anonymous) 2013-06-25 10:06 pm (UTC)(link)
i'd say 1&2

(Anonymous) 2013-06-25 10:15 pm (UTC)(link)
i'd feel rly weird to post a link in kprompts so i would only post it to sfn and let whatever happens with it happen ig. (or i would prob crosspost to my fic journal) but do whatever feels best for you.

late but ty for all the feedback! i'm still in the planning stage somewhat so i'll definitely absorb this and think on it.

pet peeves?

(Anonymous) 2013-06-26 03:52 am (UTC)(link)
Has this been discussed recently? I haven't been here in forever and just randomly decided to check and see if it still existed and damn was I surprised to see you guys trucking along at a new part!

Anyway, what's something that really bothers you in fic?

For me its canon fic where everyone is gay. Or frienship fics that seem to force relationships at the end like they think its a requirement or something.

pretty similar to your peeves, but i really hate "pair the spares" (when people make all the main "fandom canon" couples get together, then just shove the rest of the members together in random couplings so that everyone can be in a relationship at the end)

Re: pet peeves?

gratuitous over the top angst that isn't earned and is only shoehorned into the story to try and ply at readers' feelings, melodrama for melodrama's sake

Re: pet peeves?

(Anonymous) 2013-06-26 09:01 am (UTC)(link)
well i read both slash and het, so i find "everyone is straight" equally bothersome.
pair the spares, too
evil third wheels
bridezilla
stories with no plot/conflict (just flowery writing)
when the author's bias is too obvious
bdsm with no safewords
otp getting together just because they are otp and no other reason given
badly written female characters
male characters wrongly characterised to fit the uke/seme stereotype

hehe, i must be grumpy today...

(Anonymous) 2013-06-26 09:12 am (UTC)(link)
not grumpy just realistic lol
+1 to each point from me

when authors write snarky, unrealistic banter for no reason other than to show off their wittiness.

when the author just throws in the most tragic thing they can think of because they want to make the reader feel something and they think that making the unrequited love interest die in a car crash is the way to do it.

everyone is gay i don't mind too much in theory... i mean, it's not unusual for a gay person to have lots of other gay friends, and even in canon i can imagine how the trope could be used in a sensitive way to tell a story about being gay in korea. but it's never ever written like that, of course. (where ARE all the fics about sexuality, anyway? do they even exist?)

nonkpop fic related but i can't read things where a magical/supernatural storyline is introduced and all of a sudden the character is like half banshee half vampire and kicks ass out of nowhere /o\
bashing a character for no reason
sex that isn't physically possible
woe is me characters my life sucks (and then no character development)
overuse of certain punctuation (don't use -'s every other line or every single paragraph!!!!! nothing makes me scratch my head more...)

i don't mind the everyone is gay thing - well in kpop canon trying very hard to be as life like as possible it's weird. i guess it's bc i'm reading fanfic and i don't expect it to be realistic nor do i exactly want it to be (feed me my fantasies authors)

i can't think of anything else...except that first one really makes me click out and never come back. leave now and never come back!

meanwhile i find bdsm with pointless safe words annoying

not every scene needs a safeword >:(

Re: pet peeves?

(Anonymous) 2013-06-26 01:41 pm (UTC)(link)
your first point makes me laugh so much because it reminds me of all those harry potter fics where harry was like half veela, quarter dragon, quarter vampire and dumbledore's secret grandson who can turn into into a phoenix at will and also controls the elements and speaks fluent goblin

Re: pet peeves?

(Anonymous) 2013-06-26 01:46 pm (UTC)(link)
i....don't want any fics about sexuality personally. they hit too close to home for me and i don't want an unhappy or "realistic" ending for someone who is struggling with their sexuality :(

Re: pet peeves?

(Anonymous) 2013-06-26 01:47 pm (UTC)(link)
yes harry potter is the main culprit of that issue :C all of the sudden harry grows wings and claws and draco becomes his mate and he kills voldemort with a single glance of his medusa eyes. just no!
i've seen this in other fandoms unfortunately i was trying to read a fic based on the summary for a diff fandom and then all of a sudden lo and behold a wise person came telling main character that they were actually half banshee and were awakened and nOOoOOOOOOOooOOO just nOooooooooo

(Anonymous) 2013-06-26 03:11 pm (UTC)(link)
....sungyeol/dongwoo fics don't exist, right? :c

(Anonymous) 2013-06-26 03:41 pm (UTC)(link)
they are rare but here are two REALLY good ones! and both have smut

Does anyone know any good fics that deal with sexuality in Korea like its a real thing? Something similar to the Sulli fic in Olymfics?

(Anonymous) 2013-06-26 05:16 pm (UTC)(link)
what sulli fic was that?

(Anonymous) 2013-06-26 05:33 pm (UTC)(link)
i want a fic exchange without reveals. like a regular big exchange with anon signup and promptgiving and everything but we never get to know who wrote what, and ppl are not allowed to crosspost. even though there'd be a lot of speculation and i think many writers would be figured out regardless, i think it'd be interesting. i like things not having the connotations of a name attatched to it.

(Anonymous) 2013-06-26 05:50 pm (UTC)(link)
curledupkitten's fics? especially the lu han/suho one. though maybe that's more about china.
