Blank-ety Blank
Fanfic PeevesI've come across many fanfics that do this:
(insert name here)
(insert age here)
(name of coffee shop)
(name of your mom)
(name of street)
or it's just simple underlining:
Okay so, maybe I can tolerate the first two. Authors want readers to relate to the lead girl as much as possible and want to make it personal for them. I completely understand that.
However, silly things like leaving a blank for what street the characters are going to be meeting up at or what the amusement park is called. Seriously? Could you not have just said, "Meet me at the usual cafe"
Or just simply don't give them a desinged name at all.
If you do want a name, make it up or just say Starbucks!
It's really frustrating having breaks in the chapter like these ones here.
I'm sure your brain won't freeze over if you think of a simple name of a street.
