I quit

[jlh]

(Note: this is not directed at any of my betas or any of the Muses.)

I'm not writing anymore. Or if I am, I am certainly not sending it to YOU.

Does that make you happy? Is that what you wanted? Did you decide after recent events that you wanted to take me down a peg or three? Did you decide I had ideas above my "station" because I'm not part of your little coterie? Well, you've certainly done it. I won't move out of my little box now.

I was already annoyed after how you made raymarie feel. Is this a power trip for you? Is it because those who can't make sure others can't either? Or do you just want everything to reflect your own bloody image?

I don't know why I'm putting this here. Chances are you won't read it, nor understand that it's about YOU. Well, I hope you have a laugh riot on this power trip you're on, because your attitude is certainly making things difficult for others.

Growl!!!!

*Puts on twisted bronze, pointy horns and Growls at some unknown t00b* GGGGRRRRRRRRRRRR (I can be really scary when I want to be. Really, I can.) I have no idea who this post is aimed at other than to know it isn’t any of the Muses or a Siren or two, but damn what a fucker CREEP, CRETON, MORON, RATBASTARD, Bondo-Fetish-Enjoyer!!!! (edited to remain readable by all ages.) GGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRRRR

What kind of sick, twisted, ego-maniac would attempt to run both you and our Ray into the ground? Who among the fandom deems herself/himself so untouchable as to feel they have the power to discourage other writers? Fuck them! Plain and simple. What? If they’re so high and mighty, surely they aren’t afraid of new budding talent? Are they worried they might loose a fangirl or two? (What a pity.) Or is it that they’ve become a musty, stuffed shirt who fears a new voice to singing in the choir? They need to take a serious look in the mirror and grow up.

Don’t you dare stop writing! Whither or not this was formerly a person who's opinion held weight with you, You never set out to write for them; nor should you stop because of them. Period. I have plenty more to add to this, but I must dash, duty calls.

Yes, those are actual, custom made horns. I love them.

what the hell? what happened?? I am SO sorry! Dammit, you're one of the only non H/D writers I actually read and enjoy, and the thought that you have had shit thrown at you is just, well, I am furious. Who should I smack down upon?

Many many hugs for you. Undoubtedly I will bitchslap you into shape and make you write more when I am officially "back". ;)

::shares Panny's horns:: Hmmmmm, I refer back to my last entry regarding FAP and how I feel it is an unnecessarily competitive environment full of lurking bitchiness amid the kewl reviewers (who are very nice). It seems to me, the minute you get popular as an author everyone cracks down on you and NITPICKS YOUR WORK TO DEATH!!! I've seen it happen to CC too. It's just pure jealousy and bitchiness really, when people start nitpicking. What it really means, it that you're good J__. Very good. Otherwise they wouldn't feel threatened and wouldn't bother taking so much effort to nit-pick. ::sends negative vibes to FAPers who are jealous bitches::

I second this! (Though have no more useful words of comfort to add.) You are talented and whoever this person is does not have the right to bash other people's work in such a way that it discourages them from writing. A truly great writer is not scared by competition.

Strangely enough, the worst insult I can think of at the moment is that this is clearly not a nice person. While a lily-livered sort of insult, it is probably accurate, so I'll let it stand.

Don't let the turkeys get you down!
