Hi,

Feel free to leave feedback here.

Thanks! That's probably it for the badfic parody trilogy, but I may write another one if my muse is up to it. I have a couple of ideas for serious fics that I want to work on. smile

"You told me you weren't like other men," she said, shaking her head at him when the storm of laughter had passed.
He grinned at her - a goofy, Clark Kent kind of a grin. "I have a gift for understatement."
"You can say that again," she told him.
"I have a...."
"Oh, shut up."

What is a Wanda Sue/Marty Stu story?

The official terms are Mary Sue and Marty or Gary Stu. They are original characters and often a spin off of the writer.

Here are a few sites that explain it pretty well:
http://www.subreality.com/glossary/terms.htm
http://www.subreality.com/marysue/explain.htm
http://www.subreality.com/marysue.htm

I hope that helps you, Roo.

A Mary Sue/Gary or Marty Stu story is one that's a self-insert, usually done subconsciously and with no knowledge on the writer's part (until they get a bad review, that is). Most Mary Sues are badly written, but some have been written well enough that they eventually developed into rell-rounded characters. It is possible to make a canon character into a Mary Sue in a fanfic.

Some characters have been Mary Sues in canon. One example is Wesley Crusher in Star Trek: TNG. Wesley was Gene Roddenberry's middle name.

Thanks for the links!

I kinda get it. I'm not into writing so maybe that's why my mind can't totally get it blush blush

I hate it when I don't 'get it' 100%...either way I enjoyed it.

I can hear it now... "what is there not to get?"
