I'd just like to say that I'm very upset still, and so what I am about to say is totally rant because of my anger.
I understand that I ask for reviews in general, good ones to keep me going, helpful ones to fix things, and bad reviews so I can improve my writing overall, but this is ridiculous. I'm just terribly upset about this whole thing. I mean, really? You have the nerve to tell me that of all the fanfiction authors that have written the Trip To Bespin, mine is the one that is copied? I try to keep it as original as possible, but with over 900 stories JUST on Han and Leia, there are certainly things that are going to be used more than once, and not just in my fics. I'm sorry that I disappointed you, whatever...maybe it wasn't what you are looking for, but telling me to "fix" my story so that it doesn't include Nightmares, journals, cooking, a wookie, a droid and a Han or a Leia, because it's been "done before" is my version of totally inappropriate. I'm just another author trying to write my version of the trip to Bespin, and I'm certainly not using other stories to write mine. I spent hours on these chapters and being accused of plagiarism is just...it hurts.
And now I don't feel like watching Star Wars, I don't feel like writing Star Wars (honestly I'm almost afraid to continue "40 Days"), I don't feel like reading Star Wars fanfiction...I don't even feel like looking at Han and Leia fanart (or on-set pictures). I feel terrible (almost like my planet has blown up or I've been tortured by the Empire).
Too bad I don't have any Han Solo to comfort me.
Maybe I should just delete 40 Days, delete this blog, and stop writing.
