Author Recommendations - Pokemon Forum

Jack of Clovers · #1 04-21-2007, 06:22 AM

This was an idea that I'm hoping will help readers read recommended stories on this forum, to either help inspire them with ideas, give them something enjoyable to read, or simply because it's a great piece of fiction.

This'll be listed in the Story Board thread. Something like this:

* Username: The Story

The * would mean it's been recommended. After so many, maybe 6-7(?), then I'd color the story Red.

Joining:
If you want to join, fill out this form. It helps if you have experience and a high status in the feild of Fanfiction.

well i would be up for the panel... if i am eligible

do you remember me?

Redlark · #3 06-27-2007, 08:04 AM

HOLY POOP ON IN MY RAMEN!!! I remember you! I thought you dissappeared a loooong time ago. I think some of your stuff is totally eligible, haven't read them in over a year, but I thought they were good then, so I'll probably like them now.

Dr Skottie · #4 06-27-2007, 08:28 AM

yes i am back from the dead. Because I bought Pokemon Diamond and now my love for all things pokemon is again at it's peak. I have just been too busy lately. But I am on holidays for a month or so. So... yeah. If you want a refresher on my stuff, click my sig to take u to my story. the first couple of chapters are crap... but yeh...

i was jut perusing some of the latest stories... man some of these kids don't know the first thing about writing aye...

Redlark · #5 06-27-2007, 08:40 AM

Haha, me too. I got Diamond and felt the same way. No they don't, but I'm not really complaining. I noticed that fic writer membership is through the roof, which is a double-edged sword in it self, but feels a lot better than three or four frequent writers. It tempts me everyday to bring back my review corner (I don't think you were there for that).

Kenny_C.002 · #6 06-30-2007, 05:43 AM

Hmm....yeah I remember the two of you. To me you seemed qualified enough. My posting should pique Jack's interest, hopefully. XD

Deathspector · #7 07-01-2007, 07:25 AM

I duno if I'm popular, but if I am, then I'd definitely like to help out on the panel...if I could...

I'm not the best writer... And certainly not the worst!

But I think I'd be up for some recommending. I like reading Fan Fic's and then reviewing them.

I've read some awesome ones and would like to recommend them...

I'm not sure if you have to have a certain number of posts or not...

Wow, two months after starting this... some replies.

Good thing I left it up. Well, actually... I forgot about it. Heh.

Hey Redlark. I liked your Review corner. I'll add you to the panel.

Well, you are recently new to the forums. I'd like to give you a little more time before commiting you. Continue helping around the fanfic boards, write some more stories. Hopefully, your popularity and influence will grow.

So, now we have a starter panel. Any stories you liked, just post the link here, say a little something about it, and I'll make the necessary edits. Which reminds me, I need to edit the Story Archive with the new stories.

Mitsuzo-kun · #10 07-04-2007, 06:59 AM

Thanks, Jack!

Save me a place, yeah?

I can't wait!

I've read some really awesome fics...

Shiny Loser · #11 07-04-2007, 10:18 AM

Mmhmmm.. Could I perhaps be added to the panel? I'm not that great of a reviewer but I do sometimes review and help out on ideas, and I do like reading stuff people put on here.. Maybe I'm not old enough (like you told to Djax)?

Redlark · #12 07-05-2007, 12:53 PM

Oops, posted that in the wrong thread, lol. Eitherway, I'll make due with my mistake.

Thank you for adding me :D

There should probably be a rule against recommending our own stuff. I'd be arrogant enough to recommend everything I write, ha.

Deathspector · #13 07-06-2007, 12:48 PM

I guess I'll post the first recommendation. And no, It's NOT my own.

Solar Destiny: Tales of War by Deoxys_Trainer

I think it's definitely a good piece of writing, and it moves smoothly. It's not over-descriptive, but you have no problems picturing the scene in your mind. Also, despite being a BIT like the Trial of Junos (what with a human becoming a Pikachu) it has potential for being VERY different from Neo's masterpieces. I just think it's one of the better stories in reccent times, and something that you can enjoy when waiting for something to downlod or load...

Kenny_C.002 · #14 07-06-2007, 02:25 PM

Well, we can start with the obvious. XD

Despair's Hope by Saya

Strong narration on the short story. You can feel the allure of it. Even if it is just a one-shot, it's worth a read.

Yea, I think you're in the same boat with Djax. Just give it a little more time.

Of course, the benefit to having the panel, is that if a majority think someone can join, then they can join. That way it's not entirely up to one person, aka me.

I know, I'll contribute my story recommendations soon. Probably after the War season.
