The ways of fame

[wiseheart]

I've just discovered that "Annúminas" has made it into "The Worst of the Worst LOTR Stories" comm on FF.Net. *g*

I'm so proud!

Of course, considering the fact that it's a Mpreg story, it's not surprising that some people would hate it on principle.

Oh, wow, so the counter is still active, although he/she/it deleted their forum, now? My condolences. :)

Oh... for crying out loud.
That is the * only * reason one of your stories would get on one of their snotty little lists.

* Is FURIOUS*

I hate ff.net with a passion: the nastiness, the cliques, the insults and bitching on there, the slash haters, the canatics.

I won't read on there unless a story I like is posted nowhere else at all. It's a sewer of a site and attracts the ghastly little toads who congregate with other to snark and spork and bully. Even if my stuff was not adult, I would sooner stick pins in my eyes than post there. I feel like taking a shower even after looking.

Dammit, I want to be listed in that comm! *sulks!*

Yay, congratulations!

That list is enormous: almost 1500 stories! I glanced at the first couple of pages; most of the summaries are like, 'girl falls into Middle-earth; this is my first fic so please be nice', which makes 'Annuminas' seem an odd choice.

Don't worry about it. :) I suspect they picked it because it's Mpreg and we all know that Mpreg has to be bad /turns nasty generalizations off. In case it helps, I think highly of that fic because it is realistically rendered :)

I like Annúminas. Mpreg is usually not my thing, but you wrote that story so convincingly that it was impossible NOT to like it. :-)

The people who put it in that comm on FFN cannot possible have read it. Weird!

Interesting stuff you tell about HASA; seems it was a scary place earlier?

Congratulations! Let's break out some Lindtir and celebrate!

It's so good to know there are still idiots somewhere who cannot appreciate a well-written love story when they read it. It leaves room for improvement in the fandom. [Pardon the bitter sarcasm, but I grow weary of self-appointed defenders of whatever they think they're defending. The Back button is always clearly marked... Argh.]
