So, uh, I just dug myself into those horrible, horrible hole where I asked a person if she needed help with her story and ohmygod I do not understand a word she wrote and I keep giving her little tips and advises but she's misunderstanding everything and I really don't want to help her anymore but I dunno how to tell her that and oh god what do I do?!

Wow sounds like a real jam; does she know you're having hard time understanding her work because of her grammar, spelling nonexistent story flow, plot, etc? I would say that, because you don't understand it, that you just can't help her. Just say you're very sorry, but this isn't working out. Hopefully she’ll understand.over a year ago
Yep, told her. And I tried telling her what she's doing wrong, like giving her examples and telling her she's not exactly understanding what elements make up a story. I told her that it's great that she's interested in writing, but before jumping into a huge story which she will most likely lose interest in after a while, start small. Practice before even thinking about putting her stuff up in the 'net. She hasn't replied back yet. I'm not really surprised. :/over a year ago
Well damn, the move was purrrfect. It's crazy how very closely they followed the book, and I loved how they didn't try to cover all the violence and bloodbath, which was as intensely filmed as it was written. Rue's death shattered my petty little heart into a million pieces, which was expected but I still cried a river. They didn't overplay the love triangle, which made me an extremely happy fan. Seneca Crane is sexy. Peeta's camouflage was AMAZING. Cato broke my heart with his bloody speech.

It's been a very happy December for me here! A lot of things have happened, including fanfiction stuff, and it's almost the New Year here! :O How's it been going for you?over a year ago
I'm trying to, but a writer's block is blocking my way. Grr, so annoying. So I've asked a fellow writer in FFN to help me write. So, I'm not sure what's going to happen. :/over a year ago
YAY, a prop! That's like my second prop in here! Lol, thanks for adding me to your fan list as well. You know what, I should start giving out props to people as well. :Pover a year ago
^ Exactly. I didn't mind that she kept on getting more and more power and that she might be the key to all the mysteries, but she is changing so drastically. I'm reading "Fang" right now, and the part where Angel kicks Max out of the Flock had me staring at the book open-mouthed for like 5 minutes. I liked her much better when she was Max's little angel.over a year ago
