Oct. 24th, 2003 07:32 pmOh Ohhhhh, "Legacy" is on! One of my favorite SG episodes- among the *tons* of favorite SG episodes I have, granted, but still, who could resist such an angsty story or such an angsty!Daniel? No, I'm asking you! I'm always waiting to see Jack cradle Daniel close, and rock him, ya know? *sigh*
Anyway, speaking of SG. You know how internet, and MLs in particular, can look like a small village where everyone knows everyone, and where gossips are the norm? Well, something happened today. Don't know the details, but another writer went into hiding because of some hassle she had to go through- on-list and off-list, apparently. It's really weird cos two days ago, I wanted to write an entry about this writer and a particular story she'd just posted, and I didn't do it cos I felt it wasn't fair to do so... and now, I'm congratulating myself that I didn't.
Even though I must feel like the majority of the SG readers, ie that I think her Jack and Daniel are totally OOC and her stories way too much sappy and mushy for my liking, I feel bad for her. Apparently, she got called on her way of writing, and on the fact that she's a prolific writer who hits some of my MLs sometimes several times a week. She's been asked to stop doing so -- by our listmoms, I guess-- and I'm afraid she got flamed several times off-list, so she decided she didn't feel comfortable enough to keep on posting her stories on-list- from now on, she'll just post at her own site.
I really think it's sad. I mean, if you don't like a story, why the hell would you *read* it! I just do not understand those people who actually don't like a story and fucking read it til the end *and* waste their times sending a flame afterward!
Yes, I think this author writes OOC Jack and Daniel, yes I think her stories are so mushy it's not even funny, but so what? I actually sometimes read her fic, cos sometimes I feel like reading something totally different, and I see them as sort of AUs, anyway *g* Some of her stories are just too much over the top for me, and I stop reading those- is it so hard to do?? I also know there're readers who love her universe, and I'm fine with that, because hey we all have different tastes and different needs... why should this writer be punished for that?
*peeks at TV* Oh God, the scene between Jack and Daniel in the room where they played chess is over, and now we're seeing Daniel in the paddle room. I don't want to watch this scene *sob*
My poor Danny *still sobbing*
Anyway, I just feel bad for this particular writer, sorry about the little rant. Well, actually, no, I'm not sorry, but you know what I mean *g*
