3. I know exactly how you feel. I don't mean necessarily with those particular people - though I confess a bit of intimidation when I first joined the fandom! - but just looking up to extremely talented fandom writers/artists/whatever and feeling like they're on such a higher lever than you that you could never produce something that they'd like or think is good.

But honestly... everyone in fandom is just a person. Nothing more. And we're all here to share our love of something, and share our fan works.

Are you proud of your writing? Do you think it's good, and worth sharing? If so, that should be the only thing you need to know. If you like it and you're happy with it, post it!

Your icon <333 Also, I know the feeling you are describing here as well, but I pretty much agree with the statement that we are all here to share our love of something, and it's not like you are going to make any progress sitting around and moping because your stuff isn't up to par. Seriously...I need to take my own advice here XD

Besides, someone out there somewhere will love what you posted, and there's such satisfaction in bringing that someone joy by just doing what you love to do. So write away OP 3!

Much Love,
Marysia

Thank you! It's art from a doujinshi that was drawn for me a few years ago. :D Scar/Lust is my ultimate OPT. :D

Yes, exactly! And you never know how many people or who will love it if you don't post it! And people are nice in the FMA fandom. At least in my experience - when I was a newbie and didn't know anyone and just started posting, everyone was so nice and so encouraging!

OMG! LxNaomi! Yes, I visited your user page :P Naomi was my favorite female character from that series, (coincidentally, L is my favorite character of the series all together, heh) and it KILLED me how short-lived she was. That pairing never crossed my mind, but it would be an interesting mix! If you have any fic-recs for that one, feel free to toss 'em my way. I don't browse fanfic outside of FMA often.

Heee! Naomi is awesome! I'm so glad she got her own novel - I just wish it were February so I could buy the official translation! Oh, I love them together! It's...strange and mental and almost always completely non-physical, but I love it so much!

Every single LxNaomi fic written save for one can be found here:

lxnaomi. And I think that equals maybe....ten fics. Most by me.

The nonLJ posted fic is: Curiosity (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2520540/1/), by saki-enshou, which I definitely recommend.

This pairing needs more love!

And I checked out your user page...may I friend you? You seem very cool!

Heh, most Death Note news I get from

tegwaygf or my roommate,

hakuyama, and NEITHER told me about a Naomi novel!!! :E I do know about the L stuff though, and I'm excited about that. I only recently finished the anime series (http://psycholullaby.livejournal.com/38825.html) having dropped the manga just before L's..."incident" ;-;

The

lxnaomi community is so pretty XD Geez, now that this pairing has been brought up, I keep thinking about that scene where Naomi is discussing her relationship with L to Light, and how she worked with L on a previous case. That leaves a nice opening for fans to go in and explore her prior interests in L and how they may have resurfaced after Ray's death given the chance. I like the idea of LxLight, but find it most fulfilling in the canon, much like manga RoyxRiza, but sometimes, fandom is the sole support for a ship. MattxMello for instance. Fandom gave them life as far as I'm concerned. I could see LxNaomi doing the same given some thought.

I'll definitely check out your stuff. Thank you for the links and I've already added you!

Much Love,
Marysia

Yeah...you always have to remember that everyone in a fandom is just a fellow human being, when it comes down to it. No matter how much you may look up to someone, at the end of the day, they're just a friend, lover, relative, barista, office worker... :)

All at once?!

I think sometimes that gets forgotten. Which, considering that the internet is often referred to as 'the faceless medium of communication', I can understand. I'll admit I've felt sort of intimidated by certain writers and authors in fandoms. Not in a 'zomg they're scary' sense but in a 'wow, they're really good' sense.
