Less Than Perfect

For all those that are new to the fanfiction scene, below is pretty long list of fanfics that most of us would recommend you read to get you started. The list is spilt up into HSM and Zac/Vanessa fics, and then further broken down into groups depending on whether they're completed, in the process of being written or just one shots, so you can pick and choose which ever ones you like.

New fics will be added, or moved into another category as needed, so feel free to drop by anytime and discuss any of the latest chapters of your favourite fics anytime!

Happy reading!

Thanks Holden!

So new thread means new updates, right?

Less Than Perfect

This title is so awesome Kelly.

In theory. Why hasn't there been many updates today? If by some miracle we get an update before bed, I better save it cause I doubt we'll get another one.

ariadnekb

Love this title! Thanks for the new thread Holden!

scabbyabby

Thanks for the new thread Holden... unfortunately, the title rings very true.

Oh, and regarding this post from the last thread:

Dani, at some point over the summer holidays I promise to attempt to write something. JUST because you asked so nicely.

I don't want to rush it though, my imagination/creativity is pretty much non existent so I need lots of time to think... does a post in August work for you?

liv_91

love the title!!!

but seriously what is with the authors lately
why we get updates and then days of nearly nothing

Less Than Perfect

You say it like it's a bad thing Abby!

breathe you in

thanks for opening
love the title!

heartunprepared

TFTNT Holds And I am squeeing over the title not only because it is true but because I totally fangirl TDOU in general

Well. Not really. But for the intent to begin writing! I think a lot of authors start there, well I know I did. I sorta *wanted* to write for ages but didn't know what I could possibly write and eventually did it and now I'm addicted to the point of insanity

I was planning to get a ridiculously early nights sleep and was just drifting off and my cat came into my room and jumped on my bed and proceeded to chase his tail. Like, while running on top of me. So now I am wide awake and wanting an update once more. Maybe I'll reread TDOU from the beginning

scabbyabby

If I start writing something I hope to god it doesn't actually take me until August to spit something out! I will start "researching" come monday...

Ok, off to my final exam.
