wrote a story that broke all the so-called rules, and a lot of people liked it, and you're proud of it - and yet you consider it a mistake that you wouldn't make again? How is that a good thing?"
It's not.
People can be so ridiculous sometimes. No one is forced to read anything they don't want to. WHY get one's panties in a twist because someone has written a Mary Sue into THEIR story. Uhm...maybe they are just interesting enough to insert something of themselves in an obvious way and come up with a - *gasp* entertaining story! It's not my cup of tea, but I certainly don't think anyone who writes a Mary Sue has automatically written a poor, not entertaining story. Thank God whatever it is that you wrote, you did so before you had the stone tablets of "THOU SHALT NOT" were beat over your head!
