maderrIt's not that goddamn hard.
Argh I fsking hate 'modern supernatural'. Outside a few exceptions, I wish the genre would curl up and die. I'd say slowly and painfully, but that prolongs my agony.
This story I was dumb enough to read (in my defense, the summary gave no fucking indication it had a modern setting and I didn't think it possible for a "professional" story written under Strunk & White standards to be that goddamn poorly written and just plain GODDAMN STUPID).
So. Now Megan desires to do a 'dragons in modern day' story that doesn't fucking suck to the point I want to tear my eyes out.
*clear figurative worktable of stuff should be doing*
Notes to self: When done being offended, please to be working on Yuletide, superhero story for Jagen's next book (if I may), and start editing LG stories. Also, you need to get packages together to mail. And mail them before this time next year.

Dude, I'm just going to send it to you. I could be completely off my rocker, but imnsho this story firmly belong in the sux0r pile. It's just...first and foremost badly written. It feels a lot like the writer isn't entirely comfortable with either english or fictional writing.
I don't buy the chars or the setting, secondly The whole time I was just rolling my eyes and wondering what stupid thing they'd do next. Not once did I ever actually get pulled into the story.
So sending it to you. All shall suffer with me!
