Re: What makes you mock a fic?
(Anonymous) 2020-04-05 09:52 pm (UTC)(link)* No sign of a basic spellcheck or proofread, no effort to write in a reasonably coherent manner with proper punctuation and capitalization.
* Crappy summary, or excuses about how the author isn't good at writing summaries
* Sloppy/lazy writing - see above
* Weirdly messagey, like the author is trying to teach us a Very Important Lesson and thinks that beating people over the head with it is a good way to do that
* Clear signs that the author has Issues of some kind, whether it's a weird hang up about something or a specific kink that they believe they're being subtle about, but they're not
* Bad sex scenes written with hyperbolic, flowery language that make it sound like the author has never had sex
* Terrible characterization - just like, really off the mark can barely tell who you're writing about because it doesn't sound anything like the character
That said, I wouldn't sweat it. Write the best fic you can, and publish. Not everyone will like it, but that's just life.
