Name: Nora Preferred type of fiction: I'm up for almost anything. Fiction I will *not* read: Buffy/Spike, Buffy/Xander, Buffy/Oz and if I have to say it Buffy/Lindsey.

Name: Kristen Preferred type of fiction: Crossovers, (Mainly Buffy vs. something or HP vs. something) Harry Potter (HR/H only) etc Fiction I will *not* read: Really bad anime crossovers with normal shows or books. Fic centered around any boy bands and/or Britney Spears. The lollapalooza styled fics with about a billion shows in one story. I like a max of 4 in one fic. And they have to relate already. Contact by email. I will tell you my real opinion of your fic. I am very much like Anya. extremely blunt, and lacking of tact. MSN = Crazygirl9746@MSN.com Email: crazygirl9746@MSN.com |
