107) You know, she's enjoying her Gary Stu, other people might be, too. Sometimes descretion is the better part of friendship. Plus, it's really not that helpful to tell someone they've written a Gary Stu -- they'll just insist it isn't. After all, they wrote the character the best they could with their current skill set. The most you can do is suggest ways her character can be less cliched and better fleshed out.

110) I'd stop writing her gift fics, but try not to read too much into her rejection. Long ago I learned to separate LJ friendship from fic appreciation. Truth is many of my most respected, most beloved LJ friends don't read my fics, not because I'm a bad writer, but rather because what I write isn't to their tastes. They go for a different style, different ship, different tone or plot. Even for those friends who do read my fics, if I write a gift fic, I don't just write any old idea. I work very hard to write specifically their individual tastes. I consider their favorite kinks, favorite pairings, favorite style, favorite genre, and also their turn-offs and squicks. I write the characterization to my friends interpretation as much as I possibly can. It generally goes over well, and makes for a pretty tough challenge.

121) Cuddly Mylar = MEH! That said, I do read a fair amount of fanfic as original fiction. I'll forgive anything so long as the plot grips me, but sadly a lot of OOC fic is just incredibly bland and unimaginative.

158) Man, okay, I was an extended nurser, I nursed past 2, tandem nursed, Rah rah, but sheesh this is fiction and the actress isn't actually lactating. Give her a break.
