Fonts and Texts

Who You Are As A Writer

Ok, fonts.

Have you ever read a fanfic where the words are like this:

In colors,

In Rainbow,

Or have seen different fonts on different chapters?

For your information, I did.

For fonts, I completely urge that authors shouldn't change fonts on different chapters. Stick to one font. I just find it harder to read (I don't know why) and that just makes me want to stop reading. Why change fonts? Regarding the colored text, it just gives the reader headaches, it's irritates me. Honestly, I like colored text and the brain likes colors (My biology teacher said that, not me) but if it's for reading, then no. Colored text...*head drops to the table*.

Readable font, I have read fanfics where the font is too small for me to read and even when I click on the button that makes the font bigger, it still looks small to me.

My Point of View: I think that the font size should be no smaller than 12. It's going to be hard for the readers to read, unless they have an amazing vision or something. Choose a specific type of font that you like and keep it that day throughout the entire fanfic. The font size needs to be readable. And no colors, no rainbows.

Chapter 8: Actually in my school, you dont have to have good grades when youre in a sport team. Even if you have the worst score in the whole school but actually great in sport, you dont have to care about failing.

Chapter 4: I had. And it's annoying-.- i was like,"uhh, what's the use of updating when you only got 5 paragraphs to share?"

Chapter 2: Same with you. I don't rush them to update unless the last time they updated was like 3 or more months ago. Hehe

Chapter 1: OMG I just needed to read this!!! YES I ened to share this with my Jonkey shippers "friends" They kept saying that if I write about Jongkey my fics will way better and so on. But I don't ship Jongkey, so what? I want you appreciate my effort like I appreciate urs T.T why does it hurt to see people neglecting that point : That writer deserve a chance, even if I don't ship that pairing.

Chapter 8: I agree. I just realized recently that highschool fic focused mainly on the romance life, I mean, I get it that the genre is 'romance' but it doesn't mean that all the highschool things that the characters have to do magically gone.
more fic with highschool!au genre should describe the struggle of their character as a student more.

Chapter 7: I definitely agree that a title should be memorable and well thought out. It should especially relate to the story. It irks me when the title sounds pretty but has absolutely no significance to the story. One thing I'd have to disagree on is the word limit. "One of Those Hideous Books Where the Mother Dies" by Sonya Sones is a great example of this. True, not many titles exceed six words but it can be done really well by those who do.
