I would just like to announce that your story crossed the line of brilliance. I've read so many best friend stories that my relationship with my own best friend now seems so measly in comparison. But with Rhythm & Blues...I must admit that I was hooked...seriously - the kind of hooked that is somewhat embarrassing. You took a used and abused story line and made it into something wonderful! I want to salute you for being an extremely talented writer...I laughed, I fought tears...I wanted to throw both characters out of my bedroom window - you get the picture, right? Summing this up...just want you to know that its an excellent story...one that I'm sure I will read over and over again...
Author's Response: Hey there! Sorry it's taken me so many months to respond (growing up really sucks and makes you busy sometimes. eek), but I wanted to thank you for the feedback. I'm glad that you enjoyed the story and that the best friend plot line worked for you in this story. I was hoping people would see it as something a little different from the others and...glad you did. It means a lot to know that i succeeded.
Anwyay, thank you again!
I loathe you, but in a really good way. This is honestly the first fan fiction I've read that made me stare at my computer in awe and think, "Dear God, why can't I write like that?" Seriously, it was amazing.
I also spent a good majority of the time I was reading wanting to hurl my computer out the window from frustration with Justin and Laney (mostly Laney), but that to me is the mark of a good story. You did a really great job. Awesome characters (Laney reminded me too much of myself. Creepy), awesome plot, and awesome writing. I salute you.
Author's Response: I saw the first line and was like, "uh-oh" but I'm glad it was in a good way. This was a story I wasn't sure about posting--since the best friend thing has been played out, so I'm always happy to hear people enjoy it. And yes, Laney often made me want to scream, but it's Justin's dramatic nature that I hold mostly responsible for Laney's reactions (heh).
Thank you for the feedback! I appreciate it!
