Comments

[queen-bellatrix.livejournal.com]

It has been a productive year for you indeed, and we've been lucky enough to wreap the rewards.

Any chances of any more Ivy/Skimmer or The World Unseen fic in 2010, do you think? The World Unseen was one of the best things I read this year, so thanks again for introducing me to it; it's such a small fandom, which really mystifies me. Hopefully, it'll grow a bit in 2010!

[exposedwords.livejournal.com]

Wow, productive indeed. And we're lucky to read what you write.

I can't believe it's been five months since you've written Rachel/Ivy though, I miss it a whole lot :P

[orange-creative.livejournal.com]

Productive is an understatement. :)

[bizarro-bluth.livejournal.com]

DAYUM GURL! I knew you were prolific but wow. Hope you're just as inspired in 2010.

I've enjoyed all of the fics I've read from you, so thank you for giving me hours of free entertainment and quality reading material. Happy New Year :)

[khase-fan09.livejournal.com]

Dayum! Yeah, "productive" is definitely an understatement. Wowzer, banana. lol!

Now, all I hope is for more Bitch Slap fic to come in 2010. It's like my new favorite brand of crack. :)

[slavefaith.livejournal.com]

Your fics have been the one reason I do check my lj at least once a week despite my growing apathy with LJ and that all my friends are now facebookers.

Awesome awesome work. Thanks gracing us with your creativity.

Would love to see you do Hel/Trixie or Morgana/Morguse

xx

[dear-laela.livejournal.com]

i loved all of your bellice work, you ROCK! keep on writing :)

[novak_fan]

Well, I can certainly say it was a productive year! lol

Well, I'm not complaining. And you know, new year and stuff maybe it'll bring you close to new pairings as well *means Rachel/Quinn from Glee* I mean, a fandom lacking Janine's fiction isn't really a fandom hehehe.

Thanks for all the awesome-tastic work! :)

[lightbluenym.livejournal.com]

Hell yeah you were productive!

and finally The Edge was completed in 2009 Ahhhh, The Edge. My heart still goes pitter patter when I think of that story. Is it weird that a fan fic about a book I hate is my fave of all time? I suppose not, seeing as it spawned some rocking inside jokes (Edward Cullen=DMB fan) and the best comments section to ever grace LJ... *sigh* Let's do it again in '10! ;)

[ic1pher.livejournal.com]

I have to agree with the few people who wish for more Hollows stories. =) but can't force the muse, I know. Thanks for being so productive and sharing. It feels almost criminal to read some of your best writing for free. Here's for the year 2010 *raises a glass of orange juice*

[(Anonymous)]

Thank you for sharing your stories with us. I'm not a member of Live Journal but I try to check it frequently so I don't miss any of your stories. Reading your Ivy/Rachel fics got me addicted to your work. I think I might need to join a support group if you don't write more Ravy soon! I'm going through withdrawal. Hopefully next months release of Black Magic Sanction will inspire you to write more Ravy. I'm actually kind of reluctant to read the new book because your stories are so much better than Kim Harrison's teasing.

[(Anonymous)]

I wanted to say that the entire reason I started to read The Hollows series is because of your fiction. Your writing is so good that I'm beginning to suspect that you're a novelist. As the person above me said, I hope that you will continue to write more Ravy fics b/c Kim Harrison is so frustrating. Actually reading a fic where the two characters get together makes reading Kim Harrison's books manageable. Happy New Year, and I hope it's a good year for you.

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

Any chances of any more Ivy/Skimmer or The World Unseen fic in 2010, do you think?

After I torture myself and read the new book that comes out in March, I'll probably get back into writing Hollows fic. Ivy/Skimmer I'm not sure about this Kim totally effed Skimmer over in last book.

As for The World Unseen, I don't know. If I re-watch the movie or re-read the book, I may be inspired again.

The World Unseen was one of the best things I read this year, so thanks again for introducing me to it; it's such a small fandom, which really mystifies me.

I loved it as well. Both the movie and especially the book really moved me. I was completely obsessed with it for a while, and still love it. I devoured that book. And it does pain me that the fandom is so small. Movies and non-series books tend to get screwed over in fandom though (I understand why, it just sucks *le sigh*).

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

I can't believe it's been five months since you've written Rachel/Ivy though, I miss it a whole lot :P

It didn't feel like that long to me either 0_o. I guess I kind of burned out on them with the material that I had been given so far. After I torture myself reading the next book I'll probably start writing them again.

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

lol! I know, right. I was like 0_o when I finished the list. I didn't think it would be nearly that much.

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

DAYUM GURL! I knew you were prolific but wow. Hope you're just as inspired in 2010.

This list actually surprised me too. I didn't think it would be THAT much, lol. I doubt 2010 will be as productive though. The last couple of years I've just been on a roll, but I've slowed down now (*sob*). Hopefully I just need my shows to come back on the air.

Happy New Year :)

Happy New Year!

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

Dayum! Yeah, "productive" is definitely an understatement. Wowzer, banana. lol!

lol! I know right. I honestly didn't think that the list would be THAT long.

Now, all I hope is for more Bitch Slap fic to come in 2010. It's like my new favorite brand of crack. :)

I've been trying! It's paining me how difficult I'm finding it to write Bitch Slap fic because I LOVE Bitch Slap. I'm gonna keep trying. I WILL write Bitch Slap fic. I MUST!

[exposedwords.livejournal.com]

After I torture myself reading the next book I'll probably start writing them again.

Well then, as much as I'm dreading the next book, I can't wait for it :) It'll be worth the torture just to read the fics LOL

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

Your fics have been the one reason I do check my lj at least once a week despite my growing apathy with LJ

*blush*

Would love to see you do Hel/Trixie or Morgana/Morguse

AHHHHHH! You've hit on the two pairing that I most want to write right now, and can't seem too! It makes me weep. I LOVE both these pairing so much. I'mma keep trying though! I promise!

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

Thanks so much!

And I definitely will! I don't think I could stop if I wanted to, lol.

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

And you know, new year and stuff maybe it'll bring you close to new pairings as well *means Rachel/Quinn from Glee*

I'm hoping the new year will bring new fandoms. I don't think I'm going to hoping on the Rachel/Quinn wagon though, for Glee fic in general. I watch the show for the musical numbers mostly, I don't really like or get most of the characters. And though I LOVE Lea Michelle's voice, Rachel annoys the hell out of me!

*turns head and prepares to be pelted with rotten fruit*

Honestly, there's so much Glee fic from so many writers that I love that I wish I could get into it, but I can't *le sigh*

Hopefully I'll manage to hit a few fandoms you like in 2010 though!

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

Is it weird that a fan fic about a book I hate is my fave of all time?

I don't think so. I mean I wrote the longest story I've ever written about a book series that I CAN'T STAND! So if I can write novel length fic about it, there's no reason you shouldn't read novel length fic about it, lol.

I suppose not, seeing as it spawned some rocking inside jokes (Edward Cullen=DMB fan) and the best comments section to ever grace LJ... *sigh* Let's do it again in '10! ;)

That was some good crack! We should totally have another thread like that in 2010. I think it should be mandatory to have a year at least.

[queen-bellatrix.livejournal.com]

You're a braver woman than I if you can put yourself through book 8. I'll browse reviews and fandom oppinions, and if it looks like there's yummy Ravy, I'll probably pick it up.. but I'm getting thoroughly fed up of the whole thing, to be honest. At this point, I almost want Rachel to get her damn picket fence and whatever supremely idiotic male specimen Kim decides to put with her, just so Ivy can move on and find someone who'll make her happy, instead of just dragging her down in to the abyss yet again.

And Skimmer.. I was just about foaming when I read that scene.. If it'll cause some sort of character development that we can see in later books, maybe I'll enjoy or at least understand it, but if it was merely a device to rid herself of an inconvenient character.. sloppiness beyond belief, with a bit of character 360 thrown in for good measure.

And yeah, I completely agree about non series books, or series that aren't that widely popular for that matter, getting screwed over in fandom. Conversely, it seems that the people who take the time to write for them are most often top quality writers, so it's rather a skewed tradeoff, if you catch my drift. Overall, though, I'd rather have quality over quantity, which means I'm usually contented; of course the bubble bursts when I've reread my favorite fics loads of times, and there's very little new matterial being published.

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

have to agree with the few people who wish for more Hollows stories. =) but can't force the muse, I know.

I think once the new book comes out that I'll probably write more Rachel/Ivy. I think I've just burned out on what Kim has given us to work with so far. I'm sure the next book will enrage and yet inspire more Ravy though, lol.

It feels almost criminal to read some of your best writing for free.

*blush*

Here's for the year 2010 *raises a glass of orange juice*

Mmm, orange juice! Ivy's love of orange juice endears her to me so much. It is probably my most favorite beverage ever.

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much for the kind words :D

I think I might need to join a support group if you don't write more Ravy soon! I'm going through withdrawal.

I'll see what I can do! I've kind of burned out on what Kim has given us so far, but I'm hoping that once I read the new book that I'll be inspired to get back on the Ravy train. I actually miss them!

I'm actually kind of reluctant to read the new book because your stories are so much better than Kim Harrison's teasing.

lol! I'm kind of reluctant to read it too because I know that it's probably gonna make me rant and rave like a crazy person again. She can irritate me so much. But at the same time I really want to write more Ravy, and I'll have to read the book for that to happen *sobs*

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

I wanted to say that the entire reason I started to read The Hollows series is because of your fiction.

I'm sorry about the cock-blocking in the series. I always have to recommend this series with the disclaimer that it will enrage you to the point of kicking, screaming and tearing your hair out. Still, Ivy's awesome ;)

Your writing is so good that I'm beginning to suspect that you're a novelist.

*sigh* I wish!

I hope that you will continue to write more Ravy fics b/c Kim Harrison is so frustrating. Actually reading a fic where the two characters get together makes reading Kim Harrison's books manageable.

Oh, I know. Kim, or as I was calling her for a while Cock-Block McGee has inspired levels of fannish rage in me that I have never experienced before. Series extension deals are the devil's work! I miss writing Ravy though, and I know I have to read the new book to get new material if I'm going to write more. Damn her, devil woman. Damn her!

Happy new year!

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

You're a braver woman than I if you can put yourself through book 8. I'll browse reviews and fandom oppinions, and if it looks like there's yummy Ravy, I'll probably pick it up.

I'm sick, lol. It's the same reason that I've read two Twilight novels. I get so pissed off, but I have some sick fascination with them.

I wish I could quit The Hollows and Cock-Block McGee, but she's sucked me in, and I'll probably finish reading the series *sigh* I'm just going to hate her and myself for it, lol.

At this point, I almost want Rachel to get her damn picket fence ... so Ivy can move on and find someone who'll make her happy, instead of just dragging her down in to the abyss yet again.

Oh, I know. I doubt it's Kim's intention but she's made Rachel really unlikable. To the point where I WANT her to suffer. I really don't think Rachel deserves Ivy after all the shit she's pulled. The only reason I'm rooting for them is because Ivy loves her so much. But yeah, I'm really not looking forward to Ivy being tortured by Rachel's dumb, indecisive ass for another four books. This shit has just been dragged on for TOO long.

And Skimmer.. I was just about foaming when I read that scene..but if it was merely a device to rid herself of an inconvenient character..

I too hope there was some reason for it, but I doubt it. I think the problem was that Skimmer was looking like a viable option for Ivy for a while, so Kim had to get her out of the way. Only Skimmer ruined her whole life to save Ivy (something that Rachel was unwilling to do) so she had to turn Skimmer into a blood-raping bitch to keep Ravy alive. Ooh, the rage ... it buuuurns!

Overall, though, I'd rather have quality over quantity, which means I'm usually contented; of course the bubble bursts when I've reread my favorite fics loads of times, and there's very little new matterial being published.

This. It's like, it's nice when you don't have to wade through tons of crap. But then again, in large fandoms it's nice to have options. I just finished reading the book "Santa Olivia" and I really, really wanted to read fic for it, but there's like none out there. It has a canon OTP lesbian character and there's no fic *sob*

I understand that it's hard to write for things when you're not getting new information though.

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

This is what I'm hoping. I really, really kind of don't want to read it, because I remember how incredibly irritated I was by White Witch, Black Curse. But I wanna write more Ravy, and I need for material to get back into writing it, which means I HAVE to read the book.

I swear to God that Kim is some sort of evil genius.

[lightbluenym.livejournal.com]

Oh definitely. The only thing is, I don't know how to make that happen again, on that level. It started with our deep hatred of a character, and turned into...insanity. I don't know, maybe on a day when you aren't planning on posting anything you can just post random shit like "Tonks and Olivia Wilde walk into the bar Ivy is working at. Discuss." Lol.

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

The only thing is, I don't know how to make that happen again, on that level. It started with our deep hatred of a character, and turned into...insanity.

Yeah, it was spontaneous awesome. You can't plan for shit like that, it just happens!

I don't know, maybe on a day when you aren't planning on posting anything you can just post random shit like "Tonks and Olivia Wilde walk into the bar Ivy is working at. Discuss." Lol.

Ooooh, I like it! *ponders* This has the potential to be a beautiful, beautiful thing!

[lightbluenym.livejournal.com]

You can't plan for shit like that... I know! That's what made it so wonderful. It was three or four main culprits, and then other people just jumped in when the spirit moved them. I still go back to that when I've had a bad day. That thread has the power to bring world peace, I'm sure of it.

Ooooh, I like it! *ponders* Oh goodness...I can't imagine the things that would happen if this came to pass, lol.

[novak_fan]

And though I LOVE Lea Michelle's voice, Rachel annoys the hell out of me!

*turns head and prepares to be pelted with rotten fruit*

lol nah, it's ok. I also love Lea's voice (it seems I can't stop listening to No air cover, even with Cory there)and well, Lea in general have this something...she's very sexy.
Rachel have grown on me but my fav is still Quinn.


Hopefully I'll manage to hit a few fandoms you like in 2010 though!

Def. You always manage to write for the pairings I like, even the unusual ones (like Jill/Claire from RE) ;)

[hangontoyourhat.livejournal.com]

Looking at this list brings back a lot of pleasurable memories. I feel like I need to lie back and light up.

*happy sigh* Thank you, so very very much! I look forward to anything new coming from you.

[Although - PPP? Really? You are the only person who could have gotten me to watch that movie. I remember distinctly at one point I said out loud "I am not drunk enough to watch this", and promptly made myself a drink. I did, however, continue to watch. And I did enjoy it more when I was slightly tanked. Thank you for that too. I think.]

[lesbinione.livejournal.com]

I would love you for no other reason than because you turned me onto "Bitch Slap". But, after going over your list and realizing the awesome new fandoms I've experienced this last year through you and your writing, I've decided to tattoo your name in a heart on my arm. Only, I hope you don't mind if I spell it "F-A-N-C-Y". Yeah, don't ask.

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

Aw, thank you. *blush*

PPP? Really?

I know! Honestly, I never thought the day would come myself, lol.

You're welcome ... probably, lol.

[fembuck.livejournal.com]

I would love you for no other reason than because you turned me onto "Bitch Slap".

Bitch Slap really is amazing isn't it! It's just so cracktacular, but I love it. Plus, all of the pretty ... making out with each other, it just doesn't get better than that.

But, after going over your list and realizing the awesome new fandoms I've experienced this last year through you and your writing

Yay! My short attention span and flouncing from show to show/book to book have come in handy!

Only, I hope you don't mind if I spell it "F-A-N-C-Y". Yeah, don't ask.

Why, fancy is one of my favorite words. Though, you had to know that I would ask, after typing "Don't ask" because that is mysterious and MAKES ME WANT TO KNOW! lol

[(Anonymous)]

I am IN LOVE with The Edge. I'm pretty sure It's my new drug..
REALLY REALLY hope 2010 brings more Bella/Alice to the table

[lesbinione.livejournal.com]

It's what happens when you think getting your gf's nickname tattooed on your arm (because she got yours first as a "surprise") is better than her actual name. Now I just tell people I really like Whataburger ketchup. A LOT.
