Mike: Yes, I agree with that too, but if you get stuck with RPing with people who don't really know what they are doing, or if people forget about an RP and it goes stale, that's a shame and something you dont really have to deal with when you're writing your own story. ^^ It is fun to see how others react to your post though, which is truly what sets RPing and Fan Fiction writing apart from one another. ^^ Like I said though, for me, it's just having the complete control over the story and only having to count on myself to drive the story forward, which makes Fan Fiction writing a bit more appealing in my eyes. ^^

NM: Dang NM, you know how to make a lion feel special. lol. ^^ I'm truly honored that you think my Fan Fics are that awesome and I'm glad I've inspired you to write your own too! ^^ I look forward to reading them if you happen to post them here on MLK and I know they'll turn out amazing! :)

I selected "Other" because I just don't know, Lol. I am writing a fan fic but it's taken me 3 years to get almost half done. I do try to read other's fan fics but it's tough to find time to do that. I love writing, but I don't consider myself a good writer. (Not at KM's caliber, at least ^^).

Aww Moka, you sell yourself short my friend. ^^ You are just as good of a writer as I am my friend. ^^ Your Fan Fic is a lot harder to come up with, seeing as there is no direct storyline that proceeds your story, so you basically have to lay the foundation of it yourself. In my case, there was already an established story that I just played off of. ^^ So don't feel like yours is taking forever, since you have to put a LOT more thought into your work than I did. ^^ Don't be so modest Moka, cause that's my job. lol. ^^ You know the best Fan Fics are the ones that are well thought out, not rushed and leave you begging for more, all of which, your fan fic achieve in my opinion. hehe. ^^

Definitely true ^.^ Don't ever think that just because your fanfic is taking a while to get out it's a failure ^.^ Whenever you get closer to finished I'd love to read it ;)

I chose other becuase I enjoy reading other's fan fics and actually write out many stories in my head. The only problem is that I don't have the time or motivation to actually write them out and I generally don't like writing. :P

And Moka, don't beat yourself up dude. If you rushed a fan fic, it is more likely that it wouldn't be as good as one that is well thought out. Also take into consideration that you have been running MLK, adding stuff on, making sites, and been goin through college at the same so you wouldn't have much time anyway.

Oh, well thanks guys xD I've found myself rewriting portions of it because I wasn't happy with it. I rewrite parts that I have written years ago and they're lacking stuff so I just add it :) Maybe when I finish it, you guys will have to read it all again because it's all been changed!

Definitely enjoy doing both when I have the time, which lately is never. In fandoms I was in back in the day I would both write fanfics and read/review literally every single one on the site (at the time Fanfiction.net). It's gotten progressively harder as the years have gone by, but hopefully I can get back into the flow during summer.

I enjoy reading others' fanfics because I believe in the whole 'do unto others' idea... if you want reviews, review others' fanfics. So I try to read other fics as much as I can... though, once again, been slacking lately.
