Wear a season that I do is wander around Fanfiction.net to satisfy my craving to read stories about my favorite series. Since I discovered the google translator, my scope has expanded to the large mine are the fics in English.
A gold mine, gentlemen.
However, this is not what I want to talk. I got in an author page for further satisfy my curiosity and, although I usually go straight to the fics and ignore the ramblings Olympian of each, I noticed a simple phrase: "Proud member of Bad fics.
I raised my eyebrow and I said "Maika, you'll be sorry." But since I'm human, curiosity was more and went into the link. Before me opened a forum page that fought to protect the fics in the English language (Castilian, I'm afraid). As I am adamant that one can not comment unless it is documented fairly well, I went directly to the section that explained who they were, what they did and why did. In short, a group of writers and readers to comment on fics up. In theory, perform reconstructive criticism, ie comment misspellings narracióny form of the consistency. He also gave advice to the authors criticized on the revision of the text by a beta and to cast an eye to the faults.
forum I looked, and entered the critical section, where I went directly to a topic that, more than anything, it was an open confrontation between several authors who were being criticized and forum members. I took two quick conclusions: the first is that when someone insults another, his speech and can be given up and the second is that being critical is very crappy. The authors argued that there are different ways of criticism and that criticism should be constructive re not going for the jugular. Critics said that was what they were doing.
I fully understand the authors. Being criticized is awful and makes you a bad temper. But I also understand that there is criticism about the spelling errors, coherence of text and others, however, seems excessive to me to be passed that point. For example, my fic I criticized a few years ago, because my main character pertenecíaa not the series in question. It was my invention. Those who criticized me said that people wanted to read about the characters in the series and not a character that was my behalf in the series. I sent him far away, in broad strokes. Because, one thing that people are slipping, Fanfiction, at least for me, given the opportunity to get started as a writer, taking characters who already have their features developed and just put in the argument that has been created inside your head. The next step is to create their own characters and give them their own characteristics. The last step is to create a story without characters borrowed and someone posted.
The problem is that without the above steps, you can not get to the last. Because, I suppose, that the great authors would dream of creating characters rendered prior to yours.
why I say that with the criticism must go warily, because the truth is that read "have" written no "h" as that makes me itchy eyes but I also understand that there are accents and some other things that we can escape. Because Word is very dodgy and if you're not careful you change the words or accents because it makes you feel like it.
So please, if you're going to criticize, criticize Basing on certain things, not that there are characters ugly or you do not know anything. It's absurd.
Besotes ^^!!!
