Just to be clear, this is NOT a PPC based story, although does concern Mary-Sue OCs.. This is something I wrote out of the blue one day. If anyone knows the CATS archive, feedback and conversation ideas would be welcomed. I'm not asking for a beta.

I like your thinking! by eatpraylove on 2015-03-12 14:20:00 UTC Reply

(Although, to be honest, I wasn't aware CATS even had a fanfiction community until about last year.) I would continue the story by having Alonzo show Writer-anon--in great detail--what life in the Jellicle tribe is really like. (I imagine it's a lot dirtier and more dangerous than writer-anon imagines.)

I also encourage you to read some Official Fanfiction Universities whenever you don't know where to go next. :D

Let me know if you think of anything else. :) Which characters are your favorites?

Badfic on Radar by Silenthunder on 2015-03-14 11:53:00 UTC Reply

There's a fic on the CATS archive I spotted that has a few danger signals. I'm not declaring it badfic as it has only one chapter so far and the author says they have done "a huge rewrite with many changes." I'll keep my eye on it, and hopefully it will turn out to be all right. It's called "Three Jellicle Sisters."

So far it's problems are having an OC queen that's described as having muscles you could see underneath her pelt (I've had plenty of pet cats, and the mollies were never that muscular), a paragraph of description about a pelt that has too many patterns and colors mentioned, related to Bombalurina and Demeter somehow without immediate explanation (though this may not be a charge if there's a good explanation later), having a name that's spelled wrong - Rosealeana - the annoying capitalization of a word after a quote ending as though beginning a new sentence when not actually doing that, and frequently forgetting periods.

Names are tricky when it comes to Jellicles. I wouldn't say her name is wrong, it's just misspelled. Anyway, I'm gonna keep my eye on it and pray that it doesn't end up to become an obvious badfic. I'll leave a review and hope the reaction goes well. No flaming - I swear!
