Chapter 23: Exactly! Gangs are supposed to be tough, scary, and all friggin badass...not unicorns and rainbows! I totally with you on this because I seen a couple of stories like that and I was like...are you kidding me? No..just no. Somebody who points this out! THANK YOU .

Chapter 20: ... What did SM do now? I'm worried...

Chapter 20: on mac, i have microsoft word too. xD

Chapter 18: Only 24 more days!! >///< I mean.. As long as SM /cough/the troll/cough/ doesn't delay them any longer. ^^

Chapter 11: Hey there! I'm really liking this, but I have something to say about this chapter.
It's difficult to get advertised because a lot of people are after the spot. Some people (such as myself) are very, very proud of their work, and do care to spend money on Karma points to put it there. They (mostly) all have very nice pieces that would otherwise go unnoticed, buried in the gross pile of "you" fics with nerd OCs that have adopted EXO brothers. When a writer is very proud of what they've done, they tend to go to lengths some people would never dream of, just to get their work noticed.
I say if something is good, and they know it is, they have the option to advertise it themselves. I realize adding money into the equation is a bit extreme, seeing as how many members here aren't old enough to handle a bank account; but the ones that are believe the option to advertise is really very helpful.

i was thrown into a hard place after reading this- to upvote, sub, or comment first? I didn't know. In the end I decided on ranting first. In the same way that you read through fanfics and felt the need to spew feedback, I'm taking this as my chance to do the same but in response to said feedback. Your guide is the first one that reciprocates my feelings and thoughts word for word.
I'm a person who knows what they should be doing, and when they should, but sometimes, I'm just too lazy (or out of it) to do so. Haha. For example, the author's notes: I know I shouldn't be talking about personal stuff but I feel the need to slip in a small word about how busy I've been. xD
I love your guide and absolutely agree. English names = turn-off. Foreigners: I am a foreigner (from the Korean POV) but please, if you're pairing the bias with a foreigner, then I'm sorry- no. The grammar mistakes tick me off about as much as the pictures and sometimes it get's to the point where I even offer to beta the chapter/one-shot/fic. I don't call the person out on their mistakes though- I just leave a simply PM saying so.
Thank you for the helpful guide and I hope you contine writing it.
Author-sshi hwaiting!
P.S. Excuse any typos: I'm not on the most reliable devices at the moment. xD
P.P.S. While I'm at it, excuse my chatiness as well! ^^

Chapter 7: Oh wow I liked every bit of this! Thanks a lot for your ranting and advice. It gives me a lot to think about. Thanks for clarifying what the forewords are meant for, since I'm new to this site it helps a lot. I laughed as I was reading your rant, SO TRUE! Well I will totally take this into consideration the next time I write a fic. Thanks!

Chapter 5: Yes the pictures thing! I read some where they put tons of pictures in their chapters and I just click the close button. LOL. If you want to show people, then film a video! Writing is all about description. Describe it out! And of course those fast pace stories. First chapter, you met your idol. Second, you're in bed with him. WHAT? LOL.

Chapter 3: I like your ranting! And your advices! >< Agree with all of it and I enjoy each and every of the chapter! You earn yourself a new subscriber!
