Day 4... nearly two weeks late.

I've really kinda failed on this meme, haven't I?

Writing style... I'm not sure it does affect how I read fanfic that much, except for terrible abuse of the english language. (Although given that, in the right mood, I can devour ten Super-Harry fics on FF.Net...) But yeah. Omnivore. A good story can persuade me to keep reading even if the language is making my shoulder blades itch. Actually the only thing that will really stop me reading is enormous, unbroken blocks of texts. It's monotony of style as well, but it's the layout that initially puts me off!

Day 1 – What about fanfic in general makes you read it?
Day 2 – What theme(s) do you love to read most in fanfic?
Day 3 – What Character archetypes drive your interest in fanfic?
Day 4 – How does writing style affect how you read fanfic?
Day 5 – What kind of comments do you use for feedback and why?
Day 6 – When do you read what kinds of fanfics?
Day 7 – When you do comment, how do you handle the author response or lack of it?

My contract has been extended! I am now in gainful employment until the end of December. Woot! Possibility it might be extended until March but that is dependant on funding. Anyway, am very happy!

I've been eyeing up the post-a-day memes that have been floating around in the thought that they would be good for getting in the habit of posting more regularly. And then I saw this one which looked fun - and achievable! Ganked from [personal profile] senmut who came up with it.
