So that's who FluffyKitten is! I was wondering about that! As to my writing skills (thank you for the compliment), that's simply because there are so few authors on the WordGirl fanfiction page that it's hard to for a comparison. I've had to start writing off to the side in another fandom, namely Winx Club, just to get some constructive criticism, and trust me, I have a lot to learn from them. Every single person on WinxWritersAnonymous is leaps and bounds ahead of me; the best by far is Kikurukina Bal Des'cagel, although she doesn't get much time to write since she's in college. I'm 13 now, so hopefully by the time I'm her age, I'll stand a chance with her... but probably not.

Well, the first one is mildly disturbing, but I balanced out the others with romance (Becky ends up with five guys!). Somehow, it gets really violent as the series continued; I have no idea how. Recently, I've been attempting some fourth wall breaking and humor to lighten it up, but I'm not sure if I'm good at it. Here, you can judge for yourself:

"So basically, you're going to make them have a sword fight," said Scoops blandly.

"Yes, that is what I was implying."

''The 18-year-old clapped his hands together excitedly. "Sweet! This will be hilarious!" Turning to the others, he declared. "Let's start the betting, my friends! Five dollars that Becky wins."''

''"Ha! No way," said Clarissa defiantly, flashing a blindingly luminous smile at Scoops, momentarily stunning him in awe. "That blonde-haried chick definitely has some fight in her. I bet 10 on her."''

"Ah, but you forget that our little Starlight Girl can bind up enemies in cocoons of light with a snap of her fingers. I'll give her thirty."

''"But there is Victoria's laser vision to take into account," reminded Violet humoredly, amused by her friends' antics. "Also, Becky's downright dreadful with a sword. Believe me, I've seen her practice with her tutors. Sorry, but Victoria has this duel won; 75 dollars."''

"I'd bet, but I'm afraid I can't pay anyone with my head chopped off," muttered Becky in a disgruntled tone.

Some people weren't destined for the comedy business. Sadly, I am one of them. I would just like to add that this was my first fanfiction series, so it's definitely not the best. Personally, I believe Fall from Grace is currently my best story, but that's pretty dark.

Wow, this post is insanely long!
