    It's all about the filter button lol and finding the right authors :)

    Even if you're nervous you should write it anyway. The number of readers doesn't matter if you like what you've written. I'm sure you'd do an excellent job, and I know if read it if you posted it.

    I can't tell you what's in the cookies, the recipe is a safely guarded secret. I promise there's nothing bad in them...

    You write very well for someone who doesn't have English as a first language I have to say!

    Yeah, I noticed OC fics are just a little harder to find, but they are out there... (Hahaha or maybe I just need some practise...)

    OMF I also have an idea for one inspired by that one!!!! I'm really nervous about doing it, though... I just know that only, like, 3 people are gonna read it... *sighs*

    Yeah, and I get so emotionally attached to the things I read/listen to/watch... I'll definitely give it another go, though... =D

    Hahaha what kind of cookies are you feeding me, anyway???? ;)

    Hahaha I know I shouldn't really be nervous, but...I just am!!!! The fact that English isn't my first Language doesn't really help matters much, either... But I'll never know unless I try, so...

    Hahaha and thank you!!!!

    I will, scouts honour!

    Definitely look them up, there's some great non-frerard stuff out there if you look for them. MAn, I loved 'Far From Teacher Pet'. I have a story in mind that's inspired by that story, but heaven knows if I'll ever get time to write it! I know what you mean about being emotionally equipped, if I read a story or listen to a song/watch a movie I'm not emotionally ready for I find myself really effected by it. The first time I hear 'Light Behind Your Eyes' , I was emotionally numb for a day because the song just brought up such a emotional trigger in me. Sometimes you just have to step back, take a break and try to read/watch/listen again. I find that by going back I get over the initial negative reaction.

    My cookies are like, super healthy so you can have as many as you want *offers another cookie*.

    Don't be nervous about writing O/C stuff, if you have a good story you want to get out then just write it! Plus, practice makes perfect. When I look back at 'My Way Home', I see mistakes and stuff and I wish I could change it. Nobody is ever fully satisfied with their own work, but that doesn't mean it's not good! You get use to writing a certain way, so it makes sense that you find it strange to write hetero stories if you've gotten use to slash.

    There's nothing wrong with you my dear, you're perfectly eccentric! (That's a compliment BTW)

    Haha well as long as you promise to shut me up when I get too much!!!!

    *sighs* I'm gonna finish those pairing fics I'm currently working on, but then I'm just going to switch to OC fics... Yup! I'll try some Frank ones too... Birds ate my face I actually know!!!! =D read a few of her Gerard ones that were really good (and I really love "Far from teacher's pet"), but then I read a Mikey one she did which I wasn't really emotionally equipped for...if that makes any sense... I should give her another try... Also those others... Yeah, I should look into it!!!! =p

    I'm pretty sure you have awesome cookies lol - besides... ONE won't really kill me, right? Not like I'm gonna make a habit...

    Yeah, I'll probably still end up getting my mojo back and finishing them... *sighs* I really wanna get into writing OC fics, though... I've tried doing it in the past, actually, but I'm pretty sure I'm awful at it!!!! It took FOREVER before I began to get semi-decent at doing the other stuff... (And I still think I suck!!!!) The more I think about it, though, the more I long to do OC stuff!!!! I'm just really nervous about trying it and hopelessly sucking...you know?

    Hahaha you would think writing all these straight OC stuff would feel easier for a straight girl, but...nope, guess not... *shrugs*

    OMF what is wrong with me???? I'm pretty sure there's no help for my kind of crazy... *hides*

    @ pixiewayro

    You're not rambling my dear- I enjoy talking about writing and all that jazz talk away!

    At one point I flat out refused to read frerard, then I realised that there were some good stories out there so I started reading them. Frank/ OC stories are good too, you should give them a try. In fact, my next story will be a Frank one I think.

    I'm sorry for screwing up your diet, but my cookies are awesome and should be included as part of a healthy diet.

    Off the top of my head some good authors are: the_girl; Join the Masquerade; [you] ; and birds ate my face; they have good Gerard Way/ OC stories. Indigo Umbrella had good Gerard stories as well but she took them down. She has a really good original series called the Lunacy Fringe that I would recommend to anybody. I'll think of a few more for you but those authors should be a good start.

    Its tough when you lose your motivation. Personally, I read other stories or watch something else in the mean time, and normally I'll get inspired by it to write again. Occasionally, I just need to force myself to get over the difficult chapter. I would never advise abandoning a story, you're probably just stressing over your lack of inspiration. As I said, reading, for me at least, is a good way to get it back. If you need a break, take it. It'll sort itself out soon :)

    Hahaha I'm so converted that I want to completely shy away from all these other pairings!!!! (Which is weird, because the very first fanfic I ever ****ACCIDENTALLY**** read, was a Frerard...)

    I rate your stories so highly, because you are AMAZING!!!!!!!! I swear it, yo!

    If I'm making you blush, though, I'm gonna see it as victory!!!! =D
    Hahaha and thanks so much for the cookie lol (even though you're totally screwing up my diet)

    Ooooh, by the way, you wouldn't perhaps be able to rec some other good Gerard/OFC fics/authors, would you? (When I'm caught up with all yours, I'm gonna want more...)

    OMF I have a problem now, though... I'm not really motivated for any of my own fics now, but I can't really give up on them (especially since some of them are co-written) *sighs*

    Hahaha okay, aaaanyway... I'm just rambling now... Please feel free to shut me up... =p

    You always know how to make me blush. I'm so glad you read my other stories (I know you love frerard stories so thanks for giving them a chance). I'm even happier that you enjoyed them and that you rate them so highly! I love Gerard/OFC stories, hence why I write them, so if I can convert somebody than yay! :) I just hope that you continue to enjoy them! I appreciate you taking the time to drop a comment, it means a lot when someone takes the time let me know what they think of my work so here - *gives cookie*

    Hello! Okay, I totally feel like some creepy stalker thing, or whatever, but you just became my favourite writer!!!! I started mass-reading all your work now, and I'm absolutely blown away by basically everything!!!! I just thought you should know... You've given me a serious love for Gerard/OFC fics... I'll try commenting on the fics more regularly now when I'm completely done reading t all (which shouldn't take too long, I'm nearly done!!!!)

    Anyway, point: your work is amazing!!!! I love it!!!! And you just got a number 1 fangirl!!!! ;)

    Xoxo

    @ lizzicleromance
    It's nothing serious, I have a skin condition that needs a time consuming treatment so it's kinda impossible to work :( It's annoying and painful but not life threatening.

    I actually have a story with Frerard in it although it doesn't have too much Freard smut, it's called Three is a Crowd

    http://www.mibba.com/Stories/Read/523163/Three-is-a-Crowd (I tried to make it a link but it wouldn't work :s I'm computer illiterate)

    I have other MCR fan fics but they're not Frerard. It's be great to get feedback if you get the time to read it. I'll read really good Frreards no problem but it's not really my thing to write, although I do have an idea for one from a story I started to write in a notebook years ago that I literally just found two days ago! So I'll maybe write that one.

    Oh wow!!! I'm so happy you liked Joyride, that is my favorite thing I have EVER written, to date! <3
    Medical treatment?? What's going on? Are you okay? I'm here if you want to talk about it! I am at work, but in between customers I get to kinda do whatever I want so I naturally spend my time on here... catching up on reading and gaining inspiration so I can go home and write when I get off of work. What kind of stories do you have?? If it's Frerard (or boy on boy slash in general) I will totally read it, I am looking for new stories to keep me company!!

    There's no need to thank me, as a fellow writer I know how much feedback means especially when you work hard on a story. You're very talented, I also read Joyriding but I didn't get a chance to write a comment after (it was amazing by the way!).

    The same goes for you, feel free to drop a line at any time. I'm currently getting medical treatment so I'm not working for the next few weeks. I plan on reading more of your stories :D And hopefully updating my own since I've been horribly neglecting them. :'(

    Thank you SO much for your comment on Clavicle. It means the absolute world <333. I didn't get a whole lot of feedback but the bit of feedback I did get, makes the month and a half that it took to write it so worth it. So yes, thank you, so so so much. Don't be a stranger! I read and write Frerard all day in my spare time, I work like crazy but in between customers I get to catch up on reading, so... feel free to drop me a few lines anytime! <3
