Age: 18

Location: England

Occupation: Uni student studying biochem

Why are you here: As part of the review revolution!

What fic are you most proud of: 'Song for the asking', about the Marauders. I am also vaguely proud of my X-man fic 'playing with fire' because it is the longest thing I've ever written.

Name: Samantha

Age: 17

Location: U.S. Massachusetts

Occupation: Highschool student

Why are you here: Supporting the Review Revolution!

What fic are you most proud of: I'd probably say 'A Nightmare To Remember' about Tonks and Lupin since it is the most serious fic I've ever written. (I used to do only humor fics)

Age: 24

Location: America

Occupation: student, hopefully a future member of the Peace Corps

Why are you here? here as in this community? :shrug: I dunno. Seemed like a good idea at the time.

What fic are you most proud of? I'm proud of everything I've posted, though for different reasons. I just started writing fanfic in September of 2006. I'm proud of the character analysis/psychology in some of my pieces, I'm proud of the length of a few of my pieces, I'm proud of my use of language in some of my pieces, I'm proud of my research in a few, and I am on occasion proud of what I percieve to be my originality. But mostly I'm just proud ;) Previous to writing fanfic, I'd always flopped on my story writing efforts, I've always been more poetry oriented.

Name: Marit

Age: 14

Location: Lander, WY, USA

Why are you here?: because my best friend decided that this site was better than mugglenet--and I agree!

What fic are you most proud of?: Hmm, hard question. I'd have to say Lilsilee And Me, though. It's really taking off!

Age: 17

Location: America

Occupation: about-to-graduate high school student

Why are you here? Hm...because I'm procrastinating. I don't want to study for exams!

What fic are you most proud of? I'm pretty proud of all my fics (oh yes, even the real gems I wrote at the tender age of 10), but lately, my favorite one has been 'On Alcoholism', just because it was my first stream-of-consciousness fic and all. =]

Name: Jen

Age: 16

Location: United States

Occupation: High School student

Why are you here? My friend forced me to get an account in our Freshman year, and it's easier to update on than FA.

What fic are you most proud of? Green, Passion, As Lovers Go, and Twelve.

Name: Courtney (although I wish it was Alice)

Age: 15

Location: southwest United States

Occupation: high school student

Why are you here? why wouldn't I be here?

What fic are you most proud of? Well... I'm proud of a lot of my fics...lol. Plot-wise I'd have to say "Vanilla Scented Candles" because I thought the whole plot behind it was brilliant (altho the writing and description aren't exactly the greatest... I think my next project after 'The Time-Turner' will be rewriting it), but I am proud of "The Time-Turner" the most when it comes to the actual writing. I mostly stick with original poetry tho... I have an account on fictionpress under the same penname.... =)

Pen-name: Witblogi

Name: Kat

Age: 16

Occupation: high school student

Why are you here? because i was added to the c2 and when i check out the forum...really national pride got the best of me (he he)

What fic are you most proud of? uhhhh hard one........i don't think i'm proud of one more then any others but once i'm done my 100 ch challenge i will so be proud of that...2+ months of work and only at #38

Name: Sam

Age: 20-something. Old!

Location: UK

Occupation: Music Industry type

Why are you here? Lexie H invited me :D.

What fic are you most proud of? Ooh, that's a tough one. I love The Way Things Were (which I haven't posted here yet), but I think it's got to be The Werewolf Who Stole Christmas. It's my treatise on R/T.

Name: Lauren

Age: Old enough to know better ... ;)

Location: Virginia, United States

Occupation: Voice therapist

Why are you here? Lexie-H invited me! And Lady Bracknell rec'd one of my fics to her (thanks, Sam!).

What fic are you most proud of? Hmm, hard to say. Different ones for different reasons. I have a certain fondness for Camera Obscura because it was my first from Sirius' POV and it sort of just happened easily for some reason, but I usually write from Remus' POV.

Name: Lee

Age: 19

Location: New Zealand

Occupation: Architecture student

Why are you here?: because I love Lexie's fics, and because I love reviews!

What fic are you most proud of?: 'Loved and Lost' which is about the original Order, and centres mostly around pretty obscure characters.

Name:I'd prefer you call me Bob

Age:12

Location:U.S. Florida

Occupation:Middle School

Why are you here? Because I read Lexie-H's oh-so-subtle story about this place and thought it sounded awesome.

What fic are you most proud of? I only have one right now. It's called Public School and I keep getting Writer's Block when I approach it.

Name: Daisy

Age: 16

Location: Australia

Occupation: High School student

Why are you here? One of my fics was added to the C2 community archive so i thought i'd check it out (and i'm procrastinating and trying to put off doing homework). Oh and and think the idea of The Reviews Lounge is great so yeah...

What fic are you most proud of? Hmm... probably To Love Her because it was the only fic so far that i've just sat down and written not procrastinated over and over. Although Just Too Simple comes a close second and it's incredibly fun to write.

Name: Arani

Age: 13

Location: UK

Occupation: Student

Why are you here? I read Lexie-H's story and it sounded like a good idea

What fic are you most proud of? HOGWARTS! because it was my first fanfic and the first piece of writing I wanted to enter for a competition.

Name: Danielle

Age: 22

Location: Michigan, USA

Occupation: Student

Why are you here? Because I love finding little gems of fanfics that most people don't know about, and I think that archiving wonderful fics that are underreviewed is a great cause.

What fic are you most proud of? Fallen from Grace. It's completely AU now that the Half Blood Prince is out, but that story was my baby. It's the only one that I was really nervous when I put it up, and didn't think I could bear it if I got flamed.

Name: Chris/Chrissy/Stella/Kait

Age: 14/15

Location: U.S.A

Occupation: Student

Why are you here? It hurts when I don't get reviews, but know that many people have read the story.

What fic are you most proud of? I really like HARD TO BELIEVE, because it is a spin off on my very first fanfiction.

Name: Paddy

Age: 16

Location: USA

Occupation: high school student (worst job ever)

Why are you here? Just wanted to check it out, this is my first ever forum!

What fic are you most proud of? Probably my fic A Sad Moment With Powerful Tears. It's the first fic that I ever wrote and finished and was pleased with how it turned out. It's posted on this site if anyone wants to take a look!

Pen-name: Realmer06

Age: almost 19 (month and a half)

Location: USA, specifically, Ohio

Occupation: student and worker of odd jobs

Why are you here? Because I'm tired of people reading my work and not giving me any feedback, and when I enjoy a fic, I review!

What fic are you most proud of? Hmmm . . . I have a universe of connected stories that I'm proud of, but as for my stuff not part of that, I'm really proud of my Snape fic, called Cowardice. Snape's a hard character for me, and I think I captured him pretty well.

Name: Dana

Age: 17

Location: U.S.

Occupation: almost graduating highschool senior

Why are you here? I found the forum through PurpleArmadillo

What fic are you most proud of? none- as I don't have any officially posted ones- went through a serious reevaluation at the beginning of this year and started over with a new penname and a clean slate.

Pen name: The Fat Chipmunk (and jynkyg - there's two of us here!)

Ages: 15

Location: NY, USA

Occuptions: Students

Why are we here? So we can put off homework, rage at writers with horrific grammar, laugh at hilarious fics, marvel at amazing stories (some of which just make us want to chuck our stories in a gutter and cry over all the time we've wasted) and...oh yeah, write. =]

What fic are we most proud of? We'd say 101 Things Not To Do At Hogwarts if we had any legitimate claim to it, but since we don't...probably 50 Things That Really Matter - even though we've only managed to scribble off six before getting stumped. You should check it out anyway because that would make us happy. =]

Name: call me named or wind

Location: US

Why am I here: cause I heard bout it from Squirrelbait the Third n decided to check it out--hope I'm not getting her in trouble

I don't currently have any fics up...but I'll let you know as soon as I get some out there!

Penname: sunny tuesday

Name: sunny or tuesday, whichever you prefer =)

Why Am I Here: because it's a pretty cool idea and it's fun. =)

Name: Amy

Age: 14

Location: Australia

Occupation: Haha still at school

Why are you here?

I'm sick of seeing brilliant fics everywhere with few reviews!

What fic are you most proud of?

I'm most proud of two of my fics- Special and Casualties. Sadly, neither of them have gone past the 20 reviews mark, although most of my earlier (quite horrible) fics have received a lot of reviews. Casualties has only three reviews, even though I believe it's my best posted piece of work.

Pen-name: Dizi 85 (http://www.fanfiction.net/~dizi85)

Name: Lizi

Name: Kahlia (Kayla)

Age: 14

Location: Australia ... the best country ever ... we have koalas, AFL, Vegemite (which is totally gross btw)

Occupation: a bored high school student excelling in Japanese, a master procrastinator, a Harry Potter obsessee, my mother's personal slave ... the list is endless.

Why are you here? FanFiction is a lot better than working on my (numerous) assignments and I love reading all the underreviewed stories and knowing that I'm helping to make the author happy. Plus there are so many cool people.

What fic are you most proud of? atm, A Marauder's Thoughts (it's in the archive, check it out), but that's subject to change.

Link to my C2.

Feel free to recommend stories or whatever.

Name: Maddy

Age: 14

Location: The wonderful world of Scotland, UK where learning the difference between drizzling and light rain is an occupation.

Occupation: rain specialist, no, I'm kidding, ugh, I'm an A-grade student with and obsession with the creative. Which automatically seems to make me a B-grade student in the eyes of my Maths teacher. But not on the test scores thankfully.

Why are you here?: looked kind of fun, I'm not sure what it's about, but yeah, I should be writing an design summary and am avoiding it like the plague.

What fic are you most proud of?: I do mainly HP stuff, but I also do some Fruits Basket, (FB fics are Fakes Baskette and Kyo's Bane) and although I like doing both I prefer HP. My favourite HP fic would probably be Mind: The Gap or the poem HP and the Many Sues. Mind: The Gap has just been updated not 10 minutes ago, yay!

Name: Well, call me Inky, if you like!

Age: 18

Location: UK

Occupation: Student

Why are you here? Because I read SuGaRLily's great challenge responses and decided to hunt this out! It's a great idea, no need to sift through all the thousands of doubtful fics out there!

What fic are you most proud of? Erm...I only have one under this penname, and I'm only proud of the later chapters, lol: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2973190/1/ But it's not brilliant! I'm more here to read and recommend :)

Name: lana

Age:16

Location: nyc

Occupation: student

Why are you here? lexie told me about it, figured id check it out b/c it sounded fun

What fic are you most proud of? ummm... "the one he pushed away"

Age: 14

Location: United States

Occupation: High School Student

Why are you here? Hmm, well...my sister originally told me to come check this forum out, but I also got an invite through a review reply from Lexie-H.

What fic are you most proud of? Ahh hard question. Neither of the ones I have posted, actually, but a fic that I'm working on as we speak. It's called "Lou" (or at least, it is now - I might change it). Look for it in a little while!

Name: doesnt matter! just call me AAA! lol.

Age: between the ages of Scorpius Malfoy and Minerva McGonagall in the 7th book

Location: one of the seven continents

Occupation: being lazy!

Why are you here? Because one of my friends (Purple Armadillo) helped to start this and I loved the idea (especially since most of my stories fall into the under-reviewed category). So, I know how it feels and i don't want people to feel badly because they don't get a ton of reviews!

What fic are you most proud of? Although it gets like the least amount of reviews out of all my stories, my favorite is "It's Better to Have Loved Than Lost." It's undergone revision after revision and, in essence, I've been working on it since Nov. 2005!

Name: Katy

Age: 20

Location: Canada!!

Occupation: Student/Martial Arts Instructor

Why are you here? Because I've been on hiatus from ffnet for about a year now, and in the past three days I received three reviews for my oneshot, Smile, about Cho and Cedric, and an amazing author told me that it was all because of this C2. So I joined! And I really miss it here. This is my attempt at rejoining the ffnet world. Isn't it exciting?

What fic are you most proud of? Well, I love all my fics, but they usually end up unfinished. My two oneshots that turned into a fic, "Always and Never" are my favourites. And Smile is a close second.

So thanks everyone, for taking a look at my little piece, and I plan to be around a lot more. I'm waiting on Deathly Hallows and GoF to renew my inspiration.

Name: Rhiannon feel free to call me Rhia or Ree

Age: 17 nearly 18 :)

Location: Australia

Occupation: Year 12 Student/ Mc Donalds cashier (oh the shame!)

Why are you here? Well I hadn't heard of it until my story was added to the Community and I think it is a brillant idea.

What fic are you most proud of? I am most proud of my story Who knew. Due to school commitments it is on hiatus for couple of months until I am able to write the last 3-4 chapters. It makes me sad I can't work on it as I am really proud of the idea I have created.

Name: Sarah

Age: 16

Location: United States

Occupation: Upcoming Senior

Why are you here? Because I found out that someone mentioned one of my stories on here somewhere, and I got curious.

What fic are you most proud of? Genesis, hands down. It's one of my most recent. Also, it's third-person stream-of-consciousness which sounds insane but is unbelievably fun to write (plus, it gave me an excuse to play with words). It's also one of those weird fics that I looked back on later and realized that I had inadvertently written this cool, complex reverse-creation-story allegory into without even noticing.

Age:24

Location:las vegas, Nevada

Occupation:full time student/part time works at an art store

Why are you here?:for the heck of it...

What fic are you most proud of?: The case of Harry meets juilet...lol i should put that up here.

The last question; Written is for fun really, I started when me and my best friends were roommates and we write each other HP fanfic's and i just got carry away. So its for fun really.

Name: Skye

Age: 14

Location: Michigan, USA

Occupation: High school student... but not right now because it's summer =]

Why are you here? Because one of my stories was recommended in one of the other threads, then it was added to the C2, and when I clicked on the C2 to check it out, I thought it was a really good idea and stuff.

What fic are you most proud of? Hmm, that is a tough one, I'm proud of all of my fics. I would probably have to say either "Those Three Words", which is an LJ oneshot, or "Masquerade!" which is a five chapter story and is also my first complete story (excluding "101 Pick-Up lines", which was written just for fun and didn't take much time or brain power to finish)

Name: Nikki

Age: 15

Location: Texas, USA

Occupation: Babysitting :P

Why are you here: I'm here because I really love the idea of this cause. And I really love reviews XD!!

Name:Amy

Age:17

Occupation:High School

Why are you here? I believe that there are a lot of really good stories out here that are underappreciated!

What fic are you most proud of? I haven't written one yet but I am working on it. I believe that it should be well planned out and worked on before I post it so it isn't a mess. =)

;x Why are you here? "I think it's so great that someone is finally stopping to acknowledge the many authors who aren't getting any reviews! The whole purpose behind posting on the web is generally to get feedback so that we can improve ourselves as writers (or at least get a little self esteem boost once in awhile, heh). If the feedback isn't coming, what's the point of uploading, right?"
