Seriously, even if I try there is no way I can add a story, even a short oneshot or new chapter every single day!

There are several mutli chapter Olicity and Avalance fics that are using the Canarrow tag for no apparent reason and I feel like every time I update or post a new fic, they update or post a new Avalance or Olicity fic that uses the Canarrow tag... there's no way I can keep actual Canarrow fics at the top all by myself at that rate... I try but yeah, not realistic at all... so where are my Canarrow writers at? I could use some help over here ;)

We know how Sara Lance likes her coffee, black with lots of sugar! We learn that early on in Legends Season One. You might like your coffee differently and that's fine, so is artistic liberty in matters the show didn't elaborate on but if the show gave us the answer, stick with it. And the shows gave us several people's coffee preferences. Sara drinks it black with two sugars, Oliver likes it black, Felicity drinks a none fat latte with extra sugar (that makes zero sense on a nutrition level) just to name a few. We got the info. So do your research. Use another methaphor. Sorry things like that just really annoy me. But then again, I spend hours working out the smallest detail and researching things like Max Fuller's wife's name...

She doesn't like her coffee bitter, like her relationships and dirty martini, the woman mainly drinks scotch!, like do your research if you use it as something to make a point about a character and their actions.

And Sara was not sleeping with whoever tickled her fancy during her time with the Legends. There were a few choice people she hooked up with but she wasn't sleeping her way through time as so many Avalance people would like to make it out.

And who the hell thinks Ava's sweet while Oliver is bitter? It's like the exact opposite. Oliver's the sweetest person on the planet, Ava is so fucking bitter it's not even funny anymore.

And I don't why I'm over here ranting. Blame it on all the people tagging fics as Canarow simply for mentioning the fact that Sara used to date Oliver. That's a fact, you don't need to tag it that for two sentences.

I swear I get heat for also tagging a Canarrow story Olicity because technically in the story Oliver is with Felicity as in the present but Avalance and Olicity people tag a story Canarrow just because Sara and Oliver having been together is mentioned or they break up in the first chapter and them actually being together is never shown in the story.

Make it make sense and stop tagging your toxic bullshit with my ship! There are so few Canarrow fics out there don't throw your anti-fics in there I don't want to see those toxic ships under my happy tag.

I think I'm done now.

And where are my fellow Canarrow writers at? I sort of want to go through with "there can't be a none Canarrow ship at the top of the Canarrow tag" but I'm one person, my muse is flakey and given the amount of Avalance and Olicity people that are currently falsely tagging their fics Canarrow I will not be able to do that.

Wow this post just turned into something entirely different.

Anyway... I hope everyone has a great day.

I've got questions:

Barry and Iris' wedding was in Central City.

Dinah Lance, Sara's mom, lives in Central City.

So why exactly is Sara staying at a hotel?!?!

Like seriously writers? Do better!

Sorry, just something I thought about again today and thought I'd share. Always pisses me off.

Family is the most important thing to Sara and the writers regularly ignore that fact.

"I just want to go home. I want to see my family. Ollie, please, I don't want to die."

Also there is no such thing as a rule or whatever that says "you should no or are not allowed to comment on older fics". It doesn't matter when the fic was posted the author will always love and appreciate the feedback.

There is also no rule that says just because the fic has multiple chapters already, you are only allowed to comment on the last one. Comment on the ones that make you feel strongly, that you especially liked or that took you by surprise.

Honestly, just comment if you like the story. That's all we want, ee are sharing our thoughts with you, so we'd love for you to share yours with us.

If you got the time to read it, you got the time to write a short comment to keep the writer motivated and maybe even inspire them.

Okay I feel like I'm complaining a lot lately and I'm sorry, I don't want to be like this but I just don't get it.

I received a comment on one of my stories that I hadn't updated in months. And the comment was very motivating, short but they let me know just how much they like the story and I actually ended up writing a new chapter within the next week.

No reaction on the new chapter and I'm just sitting here not getting it.

I don't know. Maybe I'll get another comment when it once again takes me months to update the story?

But why not comment when you read the chapter? I mean usually my muse decides which story to work on but there are occassions I want to write but don't know on which story and in that case I usually go by popularity of the story. The less comments a story gets the less likely it is that I force myself to sit down and work on it.

I don't know. I just don't get it. And it makes me kinda sad. And it's not like we're talking about indepth paragarphs of comments here, I get that those take time and need to be done when you have the time. I get that, I write those comments on stories and it takes a lot of time and often at least one reread of the chapter.

I'm talking about the "great story, liked the new chapter can't wait for the next one" comments. Which I love and appreciate just as much. I just like reactions and to me a kudos isn't much of a reaction. It's a "this story's alright and I'll read it but it's not good enough to use words to tell the author how I feel about it." And that might be unfair but it's just how I feel.

Now I'm wondering if I'm the only one who feels that way about kudos. Let me know your thoughts on them.

I guess my rant is done and I'm going to try and get my as out of the self-pity zone it is currently in and into doing something productive.

Can't bring myself to write though...
