There this fanfic that I thinking about doing which is voltron and the pairing are Lotor/Allura. But I'm having some trouble cause aliens are Drule and I wanted to make it into a vampire and romance story.

I think I might have to make it into Alternate Universe which I have gotten of what it means but I think 'if I'm right' means....ah...damn now I'm losing my memory.

Anyway, I need help and in need of a Beta.

Do we need to know what you're making the fanfic about? I've never heard of Voltron before sweatdrop

It's based from an old cartoon show that's like 1980's or so. They remade it but in comic book with a new look of the characters and everything.

If I watched the first episode of the right show, it looked like an interesting early anime attempt at Power Rangers.

How are you planning on making that into a Vampire/Romance story?

It seems like it would be easier to make a new story with characters based of those characters from Voltron.

It's going to be all canon characters but as for the vampire part it will be somewhat of a challenge.

Aren't vampires a little overused at this point? ninja emo

Well...that's what I planning on doing.

That's totally fine, but how are you going to make it stand out, be original? Will it be something other than Meyer's fanciful, G-rated version? A romantic/gothic Stoker, full of both homosexual and heterosexual sex allusions, mrgreen and the disturbing twisted images of Lucy and all of her... well, habits? blaugh

I think tonight I'll try to write the story in my notebook since I don't have word on my laptop, or computer sadly. Which is something I need and won't be able to do that till I see my father during summer vacation while visiting and have my laptop upgrade at the store.

I think I would never do that since I learn my lesson last time I did something like that.

OpenOffice is legally free software by Sun Microsystems. It is
Wikipedia
an open-source software application suite available for a number of different computer operating systems. It is distributed as free software and written using its own GUI toolkit. It supports the ISO/IEC standard OpenDocument Format (ODF) for data interchange as its default file format, as well as Microsoft Office formats among others. As of November 2009[update], OpenOffice supports over 110 languages.


I recommend it, as, much like the description states, it is able to save your documents to many filetypes, including any Word generation, pdf, rtf, and xhtml.

Actually, I might put that on hold for now and do the naruto fanfic. I wanted to make it summery to True Blood from the TV show series but don't know anyone 'who's a true blood fan or who has read the books?'

I think I might have notepad on my laptop which I hope. I guess I''ll try writing the story in my notebook tonight.
