It's maradonia Again

[Lady Phoenix]

Apparently my friend told me that he stumbled upon this "gem" when he was looking up stuff on Maradonia.

"At First Glance" by Breeanna Mae Alessandra

Long ass name aside . . . this is another teen publishing something she REALLY should have kept to herself:
1. Accussed of plagiasm
2. Has a rape scene
3. The mary sue protagonist FORGIVES her rapist and then flirts with him
4. Other crazy bs
5. Author has said something on tumblr that is basically slut shaming
6. Author is butthurt to criticism
7. Author uses sockpuppets to boost her ego

. . . Welp, here we go again!

Ohhh dear. You have the internet, kiddies. Learn from the mistakes of others. Realize that if you include certain material in your work and do not handle it properly, that people will not take it well.

A quick google search helped me find this:
figment.com/users/296371-Breeanna-Mae-Alessandra

Scroll down a little and there's a section for her writing.

Snowing on the Moon - A work in progress steampunk novel
Europe Gone Missing - Europe Allice is not your average teenager...and this is not your average romance...shes going to marry her teacher.
One Dead, One Dying - She Thought working at a bookstore for the rest of her life sounded fine, but HE had other plans. Greenly and Frey have what you might call an off beat relationship...one is dead, one is dying.
Then I blinked (Prologue) - Seems to be a prequel to 'At First Glance'
The Death (An excerpt from 'Then I Blinked')
The End Of What We Knew - Dystopian novel

At least some of the titles are intersting.

I just noticed there's a character called King Abbadon (Is he a bad 'un?)

I'm hoping that she will stop pulling a "Gloria Tesch" and be something. It seems she has a lot of idea and likes to write, but has a few bad ideas she needs to drop.

[kaynobi]

Maybe if she did some fanfiction sort of stuff for a while and take on critiques a bit more she could polish her writing. The ideas don't seem too bad at their base level. They're just not written well

[Lady Phoenix]

Oi vay. I think Bree wrote this bit that this tumblr user is talking about (the writing got deleted) and it doesn't sound good.

[kaynobi]

So it's all non-sensical, illogical crap with lots of mentions of sex because they are A) titilating and B) daring.
Yawn

Ah, yes I remember maradonia: the absolutely ridicilous piece of bullshit that I wouldn't dare to call a glorified doorstep for fear of being too nice to the series. It is one of those rare, rare moments where not a single thing has gone right. And I find it absolutely laughable at every possible level.


Also yes - Abbadon is "tall and evil" if I remember correctly, been a while since I read them.

[EquinoxSolstice92]

I think I've heard of this through ImpishIdea, if I remember correctly. There are sporkings of this book somewhere on the internet.

[arcanius]

If you got any I'd like to read them
