It's not a great plan, at any rate.
As to why they don't like us, I can't say for sure, but it's almost certainly something to do with the sporking. They could be tetchy about how we use the fragments of other works within our stories, or they could be annoyed about the killing of other people's characters.... eh, there's probably something in the terms of service.
Basically in the long run it's a whole lot easier and all that to host missions on LJ, freewebs, or whatnot. FF-net is more trouble than it's worth in this regard.

I just asked her to put a disclaimer up, and in return offered to link her story on the List of Everything PPC. She says it sounds perfectly reasonable.
Hooray!

But the problem is that the message/way of doing it has been kinda overused by now.
Not that I have any issue with the message itself,but I kinda would like to see some variety in the way the message is given.
(Maybe some blurring of the lines between good and evil, perhaps...?)
I was kinda worried I'd accidently upset someone, but I guess I don't have to worry about it anymore. Whew!

- You can borrow Khazad Dym if you like. He belongs to Kelok and Unger
2. She should check out this community. It has many published authors and others that are willing to help out new writers.
Forward Motion for Writers
3. PPC stories are routinely kicked off of FF.net. It is a tradition going back to Jay and Acacia. :D

re-posted with permission:
"I did hear about the PPC before writing this, but I didn't intentionally stealthe idea. This fic started because I wanted to read a fanfiction where Mary sues died a horrible death but I couldn't find any, so I decided to write one
myself. Originally it was a one-shot, about a woman who murders a Mary-sue by dropping her into Mount Doom, but it became so popolur I decided to expand it and created Sue Slayers United."
Except for the typo, I pretty much believe her.

Mini-Balrog cameo, publishing advice, and a question by

- Anybody willing to lend me their Mini-balrog for a quick cameo? It won't get hurt, and I'll put on a little disclaimer. I need it for my piece of sample writing for Permission. I'm almost done.
2. I have a friend who has worked on a compilation of stories for two years, and wants to get them published. Some of them are kind of 'chicken soup for the soul'-like, so I'm not sure what to recommend. She's clueless... I'm clueless... help?
3. Is there a PPC Community on fanfiction.net?

I had similar thoughts as well. All things considered the writing's not bad, and 75 chapters is rarely a dedication kept to by younger writers.
It was Elrond's sparkly eyes and the apparent complete disregard of Celebrian (I can't say for certain because I could only bring myself to skim it through) that really froze me.

This feels to me to be the work of a late-stage suethor... possibly around 17 or something. It's done with at least slight knowlege of canonish things (IE not some 12 year old who watched only the movies) but the author doesn't realize how Mary Sue her characters are.
Reminds me of my own work at 16... Most everything done for AND IT WOULD BE SO COOL IF, rather than something more carefully thought out. *shudder*

It's ok. I have skin the texture of dragon scales anyway. What's funny is that most of my friends in real life are amazing at music, and I am sort of left in the dust. o.o
You can't out-sing a Sue. A Sue is perfect. But what you can do is actually sing, unlike a Sue, which can't actually sing but professes to the skill and mimicks actual singing in the shallowest way possible. She's perfect at singing, but what she sings is mostly lyrics blarfed out. Perfect, but... not actual singing. D:

We don't arrange our infoboxes like that, but if you look at.
