  1. # # - I quit. It's not poorly written, just a bit amateur. Which, sure, it's fanfic - it's pretty much by definition amateur writing. I know I'm not much (if any) better, but that's a large part of why I don't just throw my stuff out there to the 'tubes. Knowing how long "Past Sins" is, I just can't put that much work into it. Pleasure reading shouldn't be work, it should be fun. I see a degree of promise there, but it needs probably more polishing than would be worthwhile for this particular story. I wish the author the best as they continue to grow as a writer.

  2. # # - I think I've figured out what I disliked about the prelude: it doesn't really do anything not mentioned in the synopsis. So! Skipping to chapter 1, and opening another Four Loko. Because # as well.

  3. # # - Prelude: How many times do we need to be told the perspective character's getup is special? Didn't even finish the prelude. Maybe it's just alcohol-induced ADD. =/ It's hot in here; seems nice outside, but I don't wanna get a punk in drublic charge...

  4. # # - I have never had an interface error with a physical book. Almost immediately, I saw a link that went to Chapter One and had to click it. Turns out, the links to the next and previous parts are at the top of the part you're reading! Actually quite clever, even if I did end up confused. :p Good old PEBKAC. 6_9

  5. # # - I probably won't finish. I probably won't get halfway done. But, I'll give it a start, at least to get a taste of it. Also, finishing my first Four Loko (which amounts to more than a six pack of regular beers (and now, I shall tangentially listen to Black Flag (which probably won't fit "Past Sins" half as well as Dethklok fit "Cupcakes" (but I don't care (OH LUNA THE NESTED PARENTHETIC STATEMENTS!))))).

  6. # - # is 21 chapters, you say? Yeah, that's not happening tonight... Or, hell, maybe I'll start it. What have I got to lose? Only time (and Four Loko) will tell.
