It's subject was fanfiction, so I figured it was a question. The email content had one line:<br /><br />do you write fanfiction.<br /><br />No question mark.<br /><br />I dislike getting email without proper salutation and punctuation. It's one thing from a friend b/c you can ignore that. But a stranger tends to make me suspicious.<br /><br />I answered anyway, saying yes, I wrote fanfiction, specifically slash.<br /><br />The guy (it's a guy) said he's been wanting a het story and no one will write what he's looking for.<br /><br />So I said that it all depends on the people involved.<br /><br />He said he wants a sex story between Sam Carter and 17-year old Cassie's boyfriend, Dominic.<br /><br />Erm, I said that he was barely in one episode and the pairing doesn't really give me anything.<br /><br />He asked if I'd write it anyway.<br /><br />I said I'm sorry, no.<br /><br />And he replied with one word:<br /><br />asshole<br /><br /><br />ROTFLMFAO! I had a feeling this loser would make me laugh. :)<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=riverfox&ditemid=34360" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://riverfox.dreamwidth.org/34360.html het fanfiction feedback public 3 https://riverfox.dreamwidth.org/16277.html Mon, 22 Jul 2013 12:27:31 GMT https://riverfox.dreamwidth.org/16277.html Have been posting some of my stories at AO3. SG-1 and Doctor Who standalones. It's been great so far. Have a few Kudos that make me feel like I'm accomplishing something. :)<br /><br />So I get this feedback this morning from a reader who's a Jack/Sam shipper. She says that she doesn't understand what I see in gay fic, be it J/D or Sam/Janet. And she doesn't agree that Jack would ever, ever cheat on Sam.<br /><br />That said, she said my story (the sequel to <a href="http://archiveofourown.org/works/888283" target="_blank">Reality In Reverse</a>: <a href="http://archiveofourown.org/works/888299" target="_blank">Reality in Spades</a>) was well-written.<br /><br />I'm very flattered for the positive feedback, but the negative feedback (though I don't mind negative feedback) had me puzzled. She's a shipper, yet she read a slash story b/c Jack/Sam was in it. That I don't get. Perhaps she was hoping for a good shipper portrayal or something.<br /><br />Well, since I can't stand J/S Ship, it wasn't part of the plan. So I still find it odd, although pretty brave, to read something you know you're not gonna like.<br /><br />Expanding horizons maybe? I dunno. Still, I left a cordial comment. After all, she read and left feedback. It's always a good thing, no matter the content of the feedback (unless you're a troll, then FO, ya know?)<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=riverfox&ditemid=16277" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://riverfox.dreamwidth.org/16277.html shippers feedback stargate sg-1 fanfic public 4
