I'm not very creative when it comes to thinking of screen names.
Handful of quick stories in there and a two part, bane-of-my-existence near novel of a story. I've noticed people either like the first or second part, and hate the other - would be interested to hear what you think.
Edit - I've left you a review; let me know if you have any questions |

Lol, I change my username literally every week. Maybe I'm a bit too creative.
And I read one of your stories and it literally blew me away! You're an incredible writer! I'm going to read all your stories, but I might review one chapter at a time because I am probably the world's slowest reader.
Thanks for leaving a review on mine! I really appreciate it! ^^ _________________

I have to say, I absolutely detest stories about original characters from our world being dragged into the world of the fandom. (I don't dislike ALL original characters; I've written them myself. I just find the Neverending Story approach overdone and easily done badly, and prefer OCs who've always lived in the canon world.)
Yet, yours was fairly well-written and the characters were interesting. |

Well thanks. ^^ Lol, I read your first sentence and was like "oh god, she's going to hate this." xP But yeah, I read your whole review and thanks for not hating it too much. I'm thinking about doing a Jafar/Jasmine fic as well at some point, I just need more inspiration. Do you write at all? _________________

This works out well because I'm probably the world's slowest writer.
Well, not really. Though I haven't written anything to the series in the last six weeks because the story's fallen into a giant plot hole, and I haven't quite decided what to do with it (either one character does something that totally uncharacteristic of him at this point, or I change the end entirely), because part of the plot wasn't something I intended to write in the first place, and has screwed up the rest of the story... |

Lol, well hey, slow writing is better than unfinished writing, which is something I am VERY guilty of.
Oh, I can totally relate there. You should see me when I get stuck in a story and can't find a way to make it IC. I get all upset and I'm all ticked off about it until I can figure out what to do with it. Good luck with figuring out what to do next! It can be very tricky! :S _________________

That's kinda the problem... this particular character is in fact already 'in character'... problem is after 51 chapters, this character has evolved a bit and what he might've done in chapter 1 without a thought, he wouldn't necessarily do in chapter 51 without realising consequences... but if he doesn't do it then the ending which I've had for years now changes drastically.
Ah screw it. The plot can proceed as planned |

I totally relate then! Can I ask who this character is? For some reason, I keep thinking Jafar, but I always have Jafar on my mind, so I'm probably wrong.
Alright! Sometimes you just have to say that and continue on as planned. I usually think original ideas are the best, you know? _________________

It is Jafar, but I ain't saying anymore so no plot bunnies are given away haha.
Original ideas are the best but unfortunately my stories (both fan-fiction and original) tend to write themselves once they get going, and roughly half of this plot deviates from what my original idea was. |

Hehe, I always know when something is related to Jafar. ^^
And OH MY GOD, I just have to say that I started reading another one of your fics and I'm convinced that you're the best author I've ever read before. Your stories make me speechless. Really, I just love them. You're so amazing at writing; do you ever think about trying to get a book published?
Rofl, yes, same here. I always come up with a bunch of random ideas during the middle of writing and somehow I end up doing something WAY different that what I had intended to do. Oops. =/ _________________

Aww thank you sweetie! I've not published a book before but I've had... I think ten or so short stories published and a handful of poems, a few years back (used to do public readings, win writing competitions, was editor of a non-fiction magazine for awhile). I do have a couple of unfinished novels lying around which I doubt I'll finish.
Now I just prefer to write for fun, I don't have a lot of time to write as it is between work and school |

Absolutely no problem! I'm thanking you for writing such amazing things. I can't stop thinking about your fic and I wanna know what's going to happen next! ^^ Do you think a lot about your fics? Your plot is fantastic! I tend to reuse the same plot over and over again.
I bet you won a lot of writing competitions! You're amazing. ^^ Oooh, can I ask what your novels are about? You should finish them if you can. I bet you could get them published.
Same here actually, writing is just a hobby for me. I'm not that good at it, but it's fun. _________________
