Dude, I told you I read them! I don't read a lot of other people's fanfics right now. I'm busy working on KC's challenge, two full length beta jobs, and I want to spend time with my brothers before David goes to college. Once I get more done, I'll be able to read more. If someone reccomends that I read a story and I look at it and see how many chapters there are and if I think it sounds interesting enough to read at the moment, I'll start reading. Yesterday Robyn asked if I'd read her fanfiction about Snape, and I asked what it was called, and then I went to look at it and I read a chapter here and there for a little while, and then I couldn't stop. 17 chapters. Now I'm behind on my beta stuff. Plus I'm waiting for my action points to come back so I can drink more blood. I'm a vampire, didja know that? PM me to become one... ;D

Explian porfavore. I know what you mean...about reading here and there but you aren't the only one who's not reading my stuf...but NO ONE IS!!! It really hurts. Not so much my fanfictions and people are going back to school and I understand that but I mean they get the time to read other peoples poems and ff but not mine? (mostly the poetry thing is bugging me. I'll tell you more when you call). I know your brother is leaving for colledge in three days so you want to spend time with him. That I give you. And everything else you said. But it hurts to hear someone call someone elses poem amazing and not even read mine. They don't have to call it amazing, but to at least read it. This isn't really about you Jess. I deleted my most recent poem.

You know I'm not a fan of poetry. Besides, I was on the phone with you when I read them. A beta reader is basically an editor. They go through your fanfiction and point out errors.

I said I wasn't talking about you but like other people are reading the other ones and are like commenting big time on them and stuff and not even reading mine. I don't need big hot shot comments but just read them, you know? You don't have to if you don't want to. Call me ok?

This is basically why I was angry: because people were reading other peoples poetry, telling them it was amazing and shi-stuff and not even reading mine. It hurt. Big time. I don't give stuff if they like it or if they think its amazing. I just want them to read it. I deleted my new one becasue you were the only one who read it and there weren't any other posts on it so it didn't really matter to me anymore. THough you reading it made me feel loved by you. *randomly breaks into song* Isn't it good to be loved by you?

OT: I can't call you cause Mom's on the phone. We're going to have cake in like ten minutes though I guess.
BOT: If you want, I could beta your fic. Then you could try putting it on mNFF! ;D In its current state, you'd have to combine a lot of chapters and fix all the spelling/grammar/canon errors, and so on.

So what I'm seeing in this thread is that everyone's busy, and the don't have enough time to read other people's work. Also keep in mind that we have a very small number of members. Just because you didn't get a bunch of posts on your story doesn't mean it sucked, just that no one here was interested or had the chance to read it yet. I don't really like fan fictions that much myself, so I'm not one you'll see posting a lot in that section.

first of all: I'm closing this thread because nobody is really getting what I'm saying. Second of all ADAM: I'm not talking about a bunch of posts. This is mostly concerning my poetry, not my FF. PLus it's no big deal anymore. I know everyones busy and I get that. I don't think that my stuff sucks if I don't get a bunch of posts. I'm not complaining about not getting posts.

It just made me sad when nobody had posted on my new poem, ok? But that they had read others and said they were amazing. It wasn't exactly my brightist hour and I am totally making a moutain out of a mole hill but I don't share my poetry alot because I'm not sure how people will react and so this was a big step for me putting it out there.
