The Dirty Energy Source
Do you want to make a spreadsheet about spreadsheets?
Do you still need to figure out what two other fandoms you should request beside the only one you really want fic for?
Or are you trolling ALL the letter posts for placeholders, just so you can write those people some nice, dry coal?
We want to know all about it.

(Anonymous) 2014-10-20 02:38 am (UTC)(link)The Yuletide fic is a better example of wook's wankiness, imo. The writer here outright says in their meta post that they ignored wook's prompts and likes/dislikes. While wook could have been more gracious, this fic is really ... out there ... as a response to the prompts.
If I asked for Harry Potter smut and I got clones with paper-thin worldbuilding, no canonical inspiration that I can see, and characterization that didn't resemble the characters I read at all, I wouldn't comment.

(Anonymous) 2014-10-20 02:47 am (UTC)(link)Yeah, it just seems to me that wook has been saddled multiple times with authors who did not want to follow her prompts and didn't really take it lying down. Maybe she's not the most pleasant person and she definitely doesn't fit into the Cult of Nice, but I think any author who actually tries to write her requests probably doesn't have anything to worry about?
