This was a great O/S
It's on my never ending TBR list - I will definitely get to it after I finish The Perfect Wife as I haven't been able to read for the last two days (the horror :sweat: :omg:)
As I always need a light(ish) fic after reading that.  :D

Sorry hun - I can't find it. I'm on a new laptop (thanks to my daughter killing our other one) and I've "misplaced" books and fics and windows 8 isn't helping as it's annoying the hell outta me.  >:(
If I manage to find it I will post it if someone else doesn't

She wrote on her Facebook page:
So...someone decided to be a c*nt and report Picture Perfect.
FF just pulled it, which mean I've been suspended for two days.


I haven't got around to reading PP yet, so I'm glad that I flagged it but at least with Cara she puts all her fics on her blog in PDF eventually.

Does this happen a lot on FF?  I have read grumblings in authors notes in the past about fics being pulled and wondered what it was about. 
I read and enjoyed this one shot - it was tame in comparison to a lot I have read though.  It would seem a lot of authors with high reviews are being 'targeted' for want of a better word.  I would hate for them to leave the fandom because of a bunch of jealous harpies.
Ok - rant over.

I read it a long ong time ago. cant remember. i think it was ok.

About fics being pulled by fanfic.net, apparently they do some spring cleaning that doesnt happen only during spring.

There was a group of haters that would denounce the fics that were rated M but were actually MA(?). Bitter, childish women i guess.

Apparently it is not allowed to have swear words on the summary as well. The problem was that some authors didnt save their fics. Now most of them post it elsewhere as well. TWCS, AO3, their own blogs.

We dont actually know when it happens or why, there was a big clean up last year. Everyone tried to move over to AO3.

I remember liking it a lot, though it's very wordy and the original ending isn't a HEA.

What's the difference between M and MA?

I was just reading on another thread about someone searching for a fic.

She was 'educated' about 152 and this thread and replied all attitudey that there were too many pages to look through.

To say the least I was unimpressed. I went through every page and didn't complain. If it's such a hassle, effing google the fics. They effing pop up there!  >:( >:( >:(

Everybody took the time to post, at least take the time to say thank you or see what else there is. *huffs*

Not HEA as in[spoiler][[I'm going to read 47 chapters before she dies anyway?/spoiler][

I don't know if that would worth it.

Etd Let's try that again!

Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.
There's an alternate ending with a HEA.
