Question to fanfic readers

Hi, people of the UY fandom!

I just have a small question, won't take long:

I'm just wondering how many of you read my fanfic on this forum?

It's called: " Two worlds meet, two fates are intertwined."

It's ok if you don''t I'm just curious.

And what do you think? Is it bad? Could it be better? I'm scared of making Usagi too Out of Character.

And if you have any ideas that you wanna see done as fanfics, I'll be happy to write them.

I like your new avatar!

I've read some, but not all, of your story.

I actually read very little fan fiction based on comic or literary characters that I like. Part of the appeal of a creator owned character like Usagi is that he is the embodiment of a single creative vision, much like the characters of a series of novels by a single author.

The couple Usagi stories I've read which were written and drawn by other professional artists (Peter Laird, Dave Garcia) did not have the "feel" of a Usagi story written and drawn by Stan.

The only exception I've really made in regards to reading fan fiction is some stuff based on the late Roger Zelazny's Amber series, mainly because the author can not continue the series himself any longer. I actually found a few stories which seemed to come close to the original.

Oh, Kairi....
You have a amazing talent for words and stories. There's nothing to really worry about except for rival fanfiction authors....like this one
here.

Just kidding. Anyway, I read your story all the time; I love how you combine your own original characters with Sakai-sensei's characters. And the best part is, you don't just get inspriation right from the original story; You actually create your own adventures. See, most fanfic writers don't do that they just go straight from the original story, making their fanfic unoriginal. You have a wonderful imagination...and I must envy you for that.

I am a big fan of Kairi, anyhow.

Thanks, Keiko. Can I call you Keiko? Alright. XD

I get inspired by a bunch of other movies, music, tv-shows, and stuff them together to one weird story.

And I love mixing my weird characters with a character like Usagi.
I love characters with totally different personalities.

^_^ Thanks for being Kairi's fan!

I read your story! It's amazing! I am writing a book, (well, was, but I got really bad writer's block and have stopped writing since about November 2008) and understand how writing feels. Just keep on writin', because I love your story!

We should have a separate board for fan fiction. It's too hard to tell what here is fan art and what is fan fiction.
