For those who have been waiting (and bugging me with Emails and PMs, I am happy to announce that Destiny's Child has been updated. www.fanfiction.net/s/2269431/1/www.fanfiction.net/s/2269431/2/www.fanfiction.net/s/2269431/3/www.fanfiction.net/s/2269431/4/Please read and review! I will continue to work on the story as I can. This will be my last Harry Potter Story, and I felt it important to finish it while I can. (I really dislike stories that just - stop and there isn't any end to it) It has taken a long time for me to work out exactly where this is going, and even longer to struggle through getting it onto my computer so that you all can read it. Please do not leave reviews complaining about spelling errors or grammar errors. It's not that I don't care, or taking an "Oh well tough isn't it?" attitude the fact is, I am losing my vision, and it is impossible for me to make the corrections if the computer does not pick it up in the word program that I am using. I am doing the best that I can under the circumstance. Enjoy the story. Chapter five will be soon, I just- don't know when, Taylor Grey

Taylor,
I read you latest chapter and really liked it. Your writing is excellent and I am sorry to hear that you are going to be unable to continue because of your vision. Thank you for your work and the time and effort you put in to it. It is some of the best stuff out there.
Alesia

Thank you. I am glad you like it, and there will be more, soon. I just don't know when, and it *should* continue after I have time to get through the new HP book.
I am hoping to get one of those adaptors that when you speak it puts the voice into words, and there is also a reader that scans text pages and reads it back to you. That is further down the line as the insurance company does not see writing lemons as a real reason to get something like that. My job of teaching requires lectures and practical application of information that I already know and demonstrate- so at this time vision isn't a factor. (Some one else grades the test papers - heh) I show them where the information is, it is up to them to digest it. The tecnical people at work have adapted the screen so that it is easier to read, but I have no idea how to do it with this web site- or other programs.
There are some other works by me on Fan fiction as well. Enjoy.
Taylor Grey

www.fanfiction.net/s/2269431/6/It has taken a while, and yes, there is ADMM in this, depending on what level you want to read it at... (smug grin & giggles) I want to thank Anne for her help catching some errors on this last chapter. I hope you all will read, and review- there will be more coming soon, and I hope that it won't take as long to get chapter seven up as it did chapter six. Please Read and Review!!! Heck, go back and read them all again, and review them all and tell me if it works, or truly is a very sad and sorry story that should be consined to the dust bin! ether way, Talk ta me! Taylor

Thanks for providing a link directly to the story. I do not respond to pleas for reviews though, especially if the writer doesn't have the common courtesy to review others.

Taylor,
I have read chapter 6 and think it is the best chapter yet. There is a fabulous amount of storytelling that could happen with Neville for both OotP and especially HBP. The relationship development potential between Minerva and Neville in HBP is huge. Yes I think you have to absolutely continue.
Bonnie
PS The AD/MM bit was really cute. I love the thought Albus is a white mouse, especially since Min is a cat!!!!!!!!

Dear Please do not beg Guest. According to my stats I have submitted 29 signed reviews, It does not say how many unsigned reviews I have done however. I am always happy to read anything that people ask me to if they provide the link to the story. I am not always able to review every single work that is out there as I do work a very long day and my time is limited. If you have happened to read my work, you might understand what I like to read. if you don't want to read it, or don't like what I write, thats your choice. I have found reviews helpful to know if what I am writing is what people want to read, hence, the request for reviews.
Please reserve judgement on what I do, or how I do it untill you have taken the time to read it, or, if you don't chose to read it, then don't bother responding. I understand what I write may not suit everyone. Ergo there are things that I have read that I am too polite to respond how I feel about them.
Relax. have fun. Its ONLY a story!
Taylor Grey
Ps,
I tend to *look up* the people who give me signed reviews and read over their work. While I may not always have time to do a review, if I like what I read they go on my authors alert and favorite authors list, or I book mark them and read through it to see how the story ends. If you have found your self on that list, concider yourself reviewed, I only keep up with the best!

According to my accurate count, you have reviewed stories fifteen times but that is not the point.
While you give yourself the excuse of having to work or being too busy, you are not giving your readers that same courtesy. We also work and have busy lives. We read many more stories than we review, just as you do.
If someone doesn't like what they read, they won't review or they will let you know. The absence of reviews speaks for itself.
I was not making a statement about your story. I hadn't the opportunity to read it yet and was happy to have a link provided. I haven't read your writing to know whether or not I like it but the quickest way not to receive reviews is to ask.
Begging for reviews or holding your readers hostage if you don't get more is tasteless and this doesn't just apply to you but to all writers that beg.

Uh, look, At no time have I said If you don't review I won't write. I also said PLEASE! and I was counting the stories on FF.NET not the ones here, so add the 15 reviews to the 29 and you may get a better number,which IMHO, 44 reviews is showing that yes, I do review what I read.
It has taken me 4 months to get to the end of this chapter. telling people I put this story up, but don't read it or tell me what you think is just plain silly.
Simply put, when I first started on this board I was told off for reviewing as the person put it, it was considered *chatter* that interrupted the flow of the story. Since then, I have reserved reviewing on this board for that reason.
Reserve your comments until you have taken the time to read the story. You may even like it. If you don't, well, then say so. If you don't want to read it- why the heck did you read this thread to begin with?

OK, gang, If you review, I will continue the story... « Last Edit: Sept 20, 2005, 8:31am by Taylor » Posted on this board for your story Hither... in the lemon section.
I wish you would stay on topic which is simply, don't plead for reviews. I won't comment further as you seemed offended and defensive.

Dear Please do not beg guest.
Um, this thread is about Destinys Child, not Fuadiddles. The reference that I made to the review statement was in regards to Destinys Child. Please keep what your discussing in the appropriate area. Fuaddiddles may become a massive undertaking, an almost unending story. Before I would decide to undertake that I would have to know if people would want me to.
Destinys Child is a compleatly different issue. If you would wish to comment on that story, please do. If you have other issues, please register and send me an IM, which is a course of action that is approved of by the moderators of this board.
Btw, I liked the Mouse box idea too- oh what a way to relax after a long hard day... (smirk)
