    Another thing that's awesome for me is that when I'm reading a particular story of hers, I agree with what's going on in the story. By that I mean, if Dylan does one thing because of Liam, I'm like okay, I understand where he's coming from. But then I read the same chapter from Charlotte's pov and I'm like Dylan is an ass. Basically, my allegiance flip flops with whatever story I'm reading haha. And yes, that is one handsome man on that cover haha, Wink

    That sounds pretty cool. And if I may, don't want to step on your toes and tell you what you already know, but create a character page for the guy and do some prewriting to get into his head so you can get a sense of his character. List his likes and dislikes, hobbies, pet peeves, flaws, music preferences, anything and try to imagine how he'd feel about an everyday type event or whichever. Is he gonna be the austere type? Or the type that is open with his thoughts? I've only very recently started doing character profiles myself because I can usually get into my main characters' minds but not the others' mind frames so much. It does help even if what you write doesn't make it into the story.

    That's awesome. He's definitely a keeper. I've only even been camping once and it was for a geology class trip. We didn't sleep in tents.

    I know! That's why I love them so much. I don't know how she keeps everything so clear in her head when writing. I've yet to read the updates for Liam and The Alpha Met His Match though. I always like to wait for her to update Caine cause he's my favorite. In Love

    Well, to give you my own biased opinion that you didn't ask for (Wink), I think it's cool when authors add a few chapters in the guy's pov. But even if you don't, I'd still like to read your story. Yes

    Your boyfriend sounds like a keeper. Thumb up

    Or at least don't forgive him so quickly after a simple apology. Like you said, he should have to make a sincere effort and not act like an idiot.

    I'll have to check it out if it's as good as you say.

    Ah, so the guy is the one who wants the bond. That sounds interesting considering I've only read a handful of stories where the guy is accepting of the bond; the only that come to mind are the ones written by xxdemolitionloverxx. Her stories are so amazing! I love them all. Will it be from his perspective?

    I quite literally laughed out loud when I read that about your boyfriend! tehe lmfao

    Being on the larger side of the scale myself, I know what you mean and understand your anger. But what really gets me is that the girl just takes the guy back after everything. I know it's the mate bond but still he was a jerk and tried to fight fate. And now I'm done talking about rejected werewolves like they're real haha.

    I can't wait for an update for Alpha Mine. It was one of the first stories I came across on wattpad. And no, I haven't come across The Faery Vow. I'm assuming it's about fairies?

    I'm definitely looking forward to checking out your werewolf story. I've always wanted to write one myself and even jotted down some ideas, but nothing really came from it.

    Thank you and I'm glad you're enjoying it despite being distracted by your boyfriend hahah. Kara is definitely one of my favorites. :)

    I do have a bit of a guilty pleasure reading the rejection stories haha. But I hate that story line you mentioned. I read two stories where the girl leaves after getting rejected and comes back after losing all this weight and is now worthy of being luna and they were exactly the same. I didn't finish reading either of them. I actually have two favorite rejection stories, to be fair, they are the only ones to come to mind. The first is Alpha Mine but it's not a typical rejection story because the girl doesn't even know she's been rejected per se. And the second is Oh, So Now You Want Me? But the girl doesn't leave after being rejected.

    You know, for once I'd like to read a story where the cocky teen alpha accepts his mate the way she is and doesn't reject her cause of her "loser" status or her weight.

    I feel like Avenged fanfics are slowly dying out. There used to be plenty more but now it's all about slash fanfics.

    I hope you like my stories. :)

    I know what you mean. I don't get it either. I've read plenty of poorly written and plotted stories on there. And so many of them are the same! I will admit to having a penchant for werewolf and "bad boy" stories, but some of them...I just can't read them after awhile because of either the grammar mistakes or the shitty plot or the annoying characters.

    And thanks, but I don't think it's much of an accomplishment because I have like 2 digit reads on each chapter haha; meaning only a handful of people have read the whole thing.

    If you do check my stories out, that'd be great, but I'd understand if Avenged Sevenfold fanfics aren't your thing. :)

    I know what you mean. I've only just gotten 2,000 reads (and I know it's a cumulative number) on my story and barely any votes. I think it's because there's a lack of sex scenes in my stories haha. But it's way different on wattpad than here on mibba. It's like you have to have popular stories before you get the reads and votes. Wait, is your story on wattpad? I'll go ahead and add it to my library and vote away.

    Yeah. All I wanna do is read all day, but I also promised that I'd edit some stories for a girl on wattpad. I'm finally getting around to it.
    I've promised myself that I'm putting myself on a schedule so that I can get things done.

    That's pretty awesome. I wish I could say the same for my stories.
    I need to get back to writing myself, but am feeling too lazy this summer to do much of anything haha.

    I love it when that happens! Haha.
    It's like the characters demand to be heard and have their story told. :)
