I don't know anymore...

I'm still on hiatus and I'm typing this on my hp so forgive the stupid paragraphing. Anyways, I was scrolling through AFF and read some stuff on like ' why people hate your story' and similar stuff like that and I just needed to get this off my chest. I do agree that some stories are really cliche and ideas are overused. But another part of me says that we can't all produce good ideas and of course ideas will be call cliche because people do use them. Reading through all that I find that maybe my stories are getting too cliche too. Honestly, I'm the kind of person, no matter how loud I am on the outside, I really lack confidence and am really sensitive. I love writing, it's like the one of the few things I am good at. Reading all of those stuff has me wondering, if so much ideas are overused, then what can be considered a good fic? One that is not overused and is new and everything. And then again, these are called fanfictions which means whatever we write aren't real, so why is it that people are unhappy with cliche stuff? Aish, I'm just on my period and is PMS-ing just ignore me and my idiotness -.- PS, I'll update after my exams ^^ alot alot of updates, alright? Do anticipate! :D

I agree! I mean,it's kind hard coming up with something that isn't cliche or overused in my opinion don't you think? I'm a creative person,yet I notice I tend to come up with cliched plots ^^; I say,if the story has an interesting plot and it's still been overused,I will still read it because I like that stuff ya know? :) And I heard some people were saying about how the featured story's on here are 'so cliche' blah,blah,blah...do you think they might be jealous if they see a featured story on here and bash it because of it's 'overused plot'? That's what I think.

WHAT?! I LOVE CLICHE!!! :OOO /prepares to shoot whoever that disagrees/

But seriously, I don't get why people are complaining. Fanfiction most probably started out as cliche stories with real people/characters. They're written because the chances of it happening in real life are really low. (Unless your fic is super-realistic.) And besides, everyone has their own opinion of cliche. Something you think is cliche might not be to another person. It all depends on the point of view. Sometimes, even if you do have cliche plots, if you have interesting twists/the story is developed interestingly, people won't mind reading either.

Perhaps if you really want, you can ask some people to do reviews on your story(ies). That way you'll know how good your story is and how to improve. Just a little suggestion!

Actually I like cliche fics LOL. I just don't like terrible grammar and all the things you already know. Don't worry! Everything is a cliche now, the only thing that wouldn't be would probably be... LEE TAEMIN IS A HANDPHONE and then the title is USER BUSY or something. LOL. Cheer up!! ^^

I write cliche (no doubt about it), but I think I put in a little edginess to my fics to make them more interesting. Humor helps too.
Yeah, I just got on my period too and am WAY PMS-ing. It's making me slunk back in the classroom at school, trying to be avoided by the teacher, but I'm also ing a lot. I think I'm bipolar O.o

So true. So what if some of the plots are cliche or whatsoever? I mean, c'mon. You're not expecting authors to write a fic that suits to be a drama or movie or something? Besides, I love cliche plots. Lol. xD
