hey there! can i just that i’m really thankful review 😭 i can’t lie and say that the comments in TLT weren’t giving me a headache but it’s the internet and you can’t please everyone, especially if they do not properly read the disclaimers.

the whole point was for the fanfiction to directly mirror PJO’s writing because it was a conversion of the books into a more interactive setting. i thought it’d be fun to add some of my own touches and characters to it but apparently, that was the entire reason for its downfall 😅

i’m rewriting it to add more of my own ideas and word the sentences and paragraphs better. i won’t be changing anything which was the essence of the PJO books because it is still a direct mirror of them and for now, my only concern is the legal aspects of it. although most of that would be solved by making it completely not-for-profit.

people who’d like to read it that way can do it. people who won’t like it shall ignore its existence. but suffice to say, it’s still being worked on and god forbid the plotline and sentences are exactly as they’re written in the books because, i don’t know, i clearly stated that it was supposed to be that way?

thank you again for this comment, i’m glad at least someone got the entire point of the TLT fanfiction.

For whatever it's worth, I agree completely with the previous commenter. I adore the series, and as I expressed in a comment back on the original page for the very first version, I was hella excited about it. While fanfiction is great, being able to actually 'play' the series with my own custom made protagonist? That was a mad cool idea, and everyone who got pissed about it, did so because they didn't even bother to read the disclaimer you made about how it was meant to be a interactive fanfic-ish take on the series, and was made entirely in appreciation for the original work. None of their criticism was valid, because all they wanted to do was kick up a fuss about the entire situation, just because they could do so. Their outrage was entirely selfish, and when boiled down was all simply done because they wanted drama. And you and the other author didn't at all deserve that.

Hey, I'm so sorry to hear you're being bombarded by people like that. I was only worried about the lifting of words directly from Riordan and what others might think of the Kofi (unlinked) in your description. I'm not sure who decided to go above and beyond to harass you, but I hope you're able to report them on Discord, here, and Tumblr. If you ever need anything, please feel free to reach out. You can find me @trailshome 0r @clamoribusrogamina -- I'm happy to listen to you vent or just shoot the shit or smth.

I've watched other authors get harassed and have been harassed myself. I don't know how much help I can be, but I'm always down to lend an ear to a fellow author. Wishing you the best and am excited for updates to your games. (I adore Moreau sm!!)

Sending you hugs and well wishes!! Don't let those posers get you down! They just want to start something to start something! <3

hey, I just wanted to say I really like your Lightning Thief interactive. I'm sorry you have to deal with all the people giving hate for it. I'm excited to see future chapters and hopefully the other books. while I love the books it is nice to be able to do your own character design and your interactive has done just that. I wish you the best of luck in the future. (Also, I'm sorry if you didn't want comments on it, I just wanted to give support for an amazing project)
