To all my beloved readers/friends, I need your help!

As some of you already know, my dream is to someday publish a book. In order for that to happen, apparently I need to make myself more known.. And as shameless as I may seem here on AFF, in real life I am an introvert who dreads self-promoting because I'm scared I'm gonna waste anyone's time. I do not think I am good enough, not at all. But we all gotta start somewhere and face our fears. And this is where I will need all of your help. >.<

I'm planning to make an Instagram/Facebook account dedicated to my writing. (So if you have those social media, please do follow me once I have made those accounts XD) And I wanted to post some lines or dialogues or quotes from ANY of my stories. So this is where all you beloved readers and anyone who has ever read my stories before will play a super important role:

What are your favorite lines/dialogues from any of my stories?

It doesn't matter if you've only read one one-shot, or binge read nearly all my stories.

  • Were there any lines that were memorable to you?
  • Any funny lines that made you nearly spit water out of your mouth?
  • Any angsty part that made your eyes sweat?
  • Any cheesy lines that made you wanna puke rainbows?
  • Any inspirational lines that were eye-opening?
  • Anything! There are some I personally like, but knowing which readers like might give me so much more insight.

It's okay if you can't even remember the exact line. You can for example tell me "oh that scene in Cheese Me where they used the phone number pick up line" and I can go back to look it up too.

I don't know if anyone is willing to help. You don't even have to go back to read, it can be based on your memories. Or you can message me when you suddenly found a line you like that I should include. To those who are willing to help, thank you sooooo sooooo muchhhh!!! And I'm really sorry I don't have anything to give back in return, aside from the fact that YOU would be making a positive impact in someone's (meaning my) life! <3

For some reason, even though I read Trapped in a Kdrama like a year ago, everytime i think of Myungsoo drinking and turning into Myungie and having that serious conversation at that bar about sunggyu and liking her and everything, I just squeal and fangirl and smile. I go back and look at that scene randomly all the time. Oh, also, the last few paragraphs in House of Trap really spoke to me. Good luck on your endeavors! :)

Blank Canvas: Literally a story made up of inspirational lines.
"A picture speaks a thousand words and I want that story to unfold on my blank canvas"
"Just because your past didn't turn out like you wanted it to, doesn't mean your future can't be better than you ever imagined."
"Even if there are a thousand reasons to cry, there will always be one reason to smile. It is up to us to choose what we want to occupy our mind with"
Because everyone has a choice to fill up their blank canvas in life, it is solely up to us to decide what we want to fill it up with.

The Fated String:
Do you believe in destiny?
The scene where they say Yerin can stop being their BFF. Broke Friend Forever HAHAHAHA
"I hope the new guy's hot," Seul Yi suddenly commented (insert rest of scene)
"Normal girls I know aren't as strong as Dwayne The Rock Johnson"
The scene of Chanyeol saying he'd confess by throwing a bag of peanuts over Yerin.
When Leadnae gifts the glove that are knitted together xD
The scene of all of them watching movie together. From start to end~
The scene where Yerin was thinking it was raining but it was her tears.
Basically the whole last chapter T-T
The last three lines.

Cheese Me:
Hongki's fart line.
Kikwang's check out line.
Daehyun's phone number line.

8760 Hours:
"No matter how many times people step on you, look down on you, or makes your life difficult, your true value will never change"

Hidden In Plane Sight:
"Lower"

There's still more I'll do tomorrow!

So far, I read just two from your fic, which are House Of Trap and Cupid at Heart! XD Urhmm, I have one quote that has meaningful meaning, which is "Sometimes you'd think it's done by one person, but it turns out there was someone else behind the scenes doing all the work instead."

It's quite mystery hohoho

Woahh~~ you've written a lot here ya mel~ Dae~bak~!! b^-^d

The lines or conversation that I like and I still remember is from your recent story, HOT, when Jisoo and Yoongi talking~ Oh! You posted the dialogue on your insta~!
I also like every metaphores in 8760 Hours~ and the ones I remember are money metaphore and red towel metaphore~
This is so self-centered(?) but I do like and love the message I get from The Collector that Love is Truly Blind~~ And everything will be so beautiful if we love the right person~~ ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

/hugs you. I feel you. I don't really share my stuff to my RL friends because I feel kinda self-conscious and I think I'll probably waste people's time. I've tried being more open to them though, and I've become more confident than before. You should gain more confidence in your writing skills if you can too, since I think it's important for authors to feel proud of their work before they can share it to others. Plus, if you have so many people who love your work, then your work definitely means something to us. I mean, the popularity of WooMi and your whole universe of them shows that. HAHA. All the best for your dream! I believe you can do it ; u ;
Omg hi 5! I've actually been thinking of making an IG account dedicated for writing too. Probably not now since I'm not near done with my current things lol. If I eventually do, I'll make sure to follow you~
I feel so bad because most people have probably read most of your stories but I, on the other hand... /crickets. LOL I'll definitely read all of them eventually, especially since I absolutely love your writing style ; u ; But you may have released your book before I even read finish half of the number of the stories you have. HAHA. /slow reader
Unfortunately I have goldfish memory so I can't remember quotes well, unless they've left a super memorable impression on me. I mainly remember Blank Canvas's 'It seems he has finally found a reason to smile' because I always remember endings/beginnings well LOL. 'Because everyone has a choice to fill up their blank canvas in life, it is solely up to us to decide what we want to fill it up with' is great too.
'That reason being you' ADGJKJG /ascends to heaven
(Speaking about this I really should start writing the review for Blank Canvas lol... I'll get back to it soon ; u ;)
'Even if it looked like poop, it happened for a reason. And it can only get better.' - Trapped in a Kdrama (indeed, poop happens to excrete our waste materials and we should be thankful to poop-sunbae for helping us do that)
'I do like Nam Eun Hee' - Trapped in a Kdrama (because sunggyuxeunhee ASFGGGJJFGH ahem excuse me)
'Do you believe in destiny?' - The Fated String (<3)
'Therefore, they chose to defy all odds and go against fate. Because they chose to love each other.' - The Fated String (<3)

Hope I've been of some help \o/ Good luck in publishing your book! I'm sure you'll achieve great heights as an author ^^ P.S. You may want to publish your works other than AFF. Wattpad is pretty common, for instance. Not sure if you have a Wattpad acc though ; u ; Since you like inspirational stuff, blogging will also help a lot. It's a bit different from writing your own stories but if you have a successful blog, and you post all your works on there, it'll probably boost your renownedness by a lot (renownedness is not a word but nvm HAHA). I don't know much else about marketing so that's all the bad advice I can give lolol

Hi Mel!
I had read 14 of your stories, and i am reading the two that are ongoing, but I can't choose which one is the best because all of them has something special and inspirational.

Were there any lines that were memorable to you? yes, they were.
8760 Hours: " No matter how many times people step on you, look down on you, or makes your life difficult, your true value will never change".
The Fated String: The analogy of the shoes and Yerin's heart. Also the analogy of the cat and Yerin.
Black Canvas: Myungsoo and Rika's conversations. If I have to chose, it will be this one: " Because our emotions are contagious, not just for ourselves, but for others people. If you smile, you will mentally remind yourself of the happier things in life, and when people see that, they can't help but smile along."

Any funny lines that made you nearly spit water out of your mouth?
I can't remember any line but It could be when Myungie showed up in "Trapped in a K-drama" and "Back in a K-drama"

Any angsty part that made your eyes sweat?
The Fated String!!! You know that I cried a river with that story. Their first kiss, the analogy of the shoes and Yerin's heart, the analogy of the cat and Yerin, and when Yerin cried when Chanyeol was going to confess to Heejin are a few examples.

Any cheesy lines that made you wanna puke rainbows?
Cheese me: Woohyun and Hyunmi's conversations. jajaja

Any inspirational lines that were eye-opening?
8760 Hours: " No matter how many times people step on you, look down on you, or makes your life difficult, your true value will never change".

In fact, all your stories are inspirational!!!!

Hope I could help you.
Have a great day!
Hugs ^^,

I've only read HoT, but there was one line from Yoongi where he was talking about kill or be killed that I thought was a bit spine chilling.

hey there~ so confession time:
I've only read one fic from you so far which is House of Trap.
I loved it so much~ but i have yet to read your other fics not because I dont want to, but you see... I LOVE INFINITE but being on AFF for so long I have discovered that I truly dont find fics with OC..much to my liking.. I can't find myself reading OC fics :\
I'm sure you're a great writer judging from HoT but..yeah, it's just my principle not to read it.
I'll recommend it to friends tho, dont worry~ you still have my support somehow hehe.
Good luck on publishing a good book ;-; FIGHTING!!!

My favorite quote from HoT was Namjoon's metaphor for Soojung when they went looking for the special items in the House <3 because it fits her character very much.

"In all of Myungie's 2000 years of living on Earth, this year has got to be the best"

Lmao I'm sorry there r so many nice/funny/motivational lines in your stories, but this is the only line still fresh in my memory. I remember clasping a hand against my forehead and being like "oh, myungie...."
There r a lot. I'll come back to this blog when I remember few~

Trapped in k drama.
We all know we cant escape Mafia's seve como popo.
The fresh idea of using cliché drama scenes is the first reminder how i discover you.

Never have i left your side...the feels basically. The feeling that finally you know that you're not alone.*i put myself in woohyuns shoes.
