Tonks love! And If you're going to tell me I suck, send evidence

[mhalachai]

First off: Tonks love! theregoesyamum has a great character profile up on Tonks: The Deconstruction of a Miss Nymphadora Tonks. In which Gun goes into the character, how Tonks is smart and blunt and fallible and real, and then the writer backs her shit up with evidence. Good times.

Second: You know, if you don't like what I'm doing in my stories, tell me. But give me evidence and specifics, not just "yeah, this licked, you hack." I'm willing to take criticism as much as anyone, but give me a hand and make it constructive, KTHNX.

PS No one actually said that my writing licks, or called me a hack. I'm paraphrasing.

I think it was me...but I also think what I said was "I haven't been enjoying previous chapters as much as usual," which I ment in the same way as saying "I don't like cookies-and-cream ice-cream as much as Hiethbar." That doesn't mean I don't like cookies-and-cream, I love cookies-and-cream...but Hiethbar is even more yummy.

Gottcha.

What's Hiethbar all about? We have strange candy up here in Canada.

Oh, I forgot you were from Canada. Hiethbar is difficult to discribe...its core is a vaguely nutty brittle with a hint of caramel. This inner concoction is coated in chocolate. It really rather yummy if I do say so myself.
