My Run-in With An Obsessed Fangirl



The internet is full of strange flavours.

Last year I met one such flavour, conveniently disguised as a fellow LOST fan.

Becoming bored by LF, and sick of the immature 14-year-olds that have taken over fanforum, I decided to venture over to lj and meet some new freaks.

In less that half an hour, I had found one. It was obvious by the poorly photoshopped avatar reading "Our fandoms mom can kick your fandoms ass." (Note: NOBODY still uses these)
Six months pass. We decide to write a collaboration fic. She writes the brief plot, and I elaborate - she can't write btw.

Time passes, another four months and it is early June. I get an email asking for an update. Time passes, two days - I get not one new email - but FIVE.

So I leave it a week, resisting the opportunity to check, recheck, check and recheck my fanfic email. On the Friday, I decide to see if I have continued to be pestered by this weirdo. How many emails do I find? Hmm? HMM?

36.

Not 10, not 20, I though at the most i'd get 25 - but 36!

All of them? "UPPPPDDDDAAAAATTE MYY FANNFFFIIICC!"

Firstly, hers? HERS? crazy.

I leave it a while... and today, I checked it again. 42.

42 emails.

I have since blocked her.
