Shivakashi! I tried to message you on FF but it wouldn't let me, just sent me to an error page. So I know it's been 3 years and there's a very high likelihood that you don't check these things anymore, but I just wanted to let you know how much of an impact you have had on me!
Back in high school I started reading fanfiction, this must have been back in 2009. I have probably read... over a thousand stories in lots of different fandoms. And there were some really, really awesome stories, but I can EASILY say that your stories were my absolute favourite. I read everything that you wrote simply because I adored your writing style, regardless of fandom. And your cross-overs with interweaving narratives - SO. AWESOME. Your characterization made everybody come alive off the page, those same characters lived in my mind for years! Everything you wrote was unique and engaging. You managed to take all my favourite genres - action, humour, angst, romance - and mash them all together, which has probably been the single biggest influence on my writing (I love me a good humour/angst dynamic!). Seriously, the jokes in your work were laugh out loud funny, and you managed to make everyone so badass - ugh. Sometimes I think I liked your stories more than I liked the actual series! Anyway, this is a bit of a love letter mixed with a thank you note. Fanfiction is a profitless labour of love and you wrote ambitiously. I really appreciate everything you worked to create for your scattered, invisible readers. Life will push us in all kinds of directions throughout its course, but for those few years, 09-12, you and me were tight, even if you didn't know it ;9 I wish you all the best in your current & future pursuits!
Look me up on ff if you'd ever like to chat (I don't use deviantart anymore), you can find me as ~monstermads.
