Another Fanfiction-Related Post

[farla]

Well, I've sent the emails and we'll (by which I mean 'I'll) see.

And did everyone see FFN's update on the rules? Yay!!! Death to Scriptfic! Death to Youfic! Death!!!



Of course, my category still has the ebil OT/MS fics (five on the Justin page today…I really must get reviewing.) to deal with. ::sigh:: It seems like there are a sum total of three plots in the category. OT, May/Brendan's journey, and ships. Sometimes there are stories (which are my fault, sorry) that are badly written angsty pokemon POVs. And that's about it.

Kill them. Kill them all.

And it isn't just my imagination. Or not entirely. If you jump back a hundred pages or so, while I won't exactly say there's an abundance of well-written stories, there's at least some variety.

Which I suppose is all the more reason to check over the next Unoriginality OT chapter, work on Ice, and submit a one-shot I've had kicking around about absol.

I think I'll also make up a list of alternative plot ideas. Kamisama knows we need some, and I have more than I can use.

I wonder if there will ever be a time when they put up rules against Mary Sue's? In the last couple of years they have been getting rid of the worst of the fanfiction types. The mary sue character could be next....
Is it just my imagination or is the Pokemon TV show also loosing quality? I know for myself anyway that I used to enjoy watching it but now its seems rather boring and repiditive. Perhaps the quality of stories is being reduced as the show itself is a bad example to young writers?
