Mary Sues

I don't hate them as much as I used to. I've pretty much come to accept that Mary Sues are something that pretty much every fiction writer has created at some point, especially during their amateur stage. In fact, I've created more than one OC in the past that I think of as Mary Sues now even though I thought that they were perfectly fine back then.

Basically, what I'm saying is that just because someone creates a character that is a Mary Sue, it does NOT mean that they're a bad person that ought to never be allowed to write again. It just means that they need more practice with characterization.

Oh, I know. Actually, some Sues are good. It's only a few that get annoying.

My Inner Life, an infamous Legend of Zelda fanfiction. The main character's name is Jenna, and she's never outright referred to as “Jenna Silverblade,” but she marries Link, who now has the last name of Silverblade, so it's probably safe to assume that that's her last name as well.

By the way, not all Mary Sues are from fanfiction. They exist in original works as well.

Hmm, she seems more like an anti-Sue to me, though those are just as bad.

People act like anybody who makes a Mary Sue shouldn't be able to have a will to live in my perspective. Yes, the character is a Mary Sue. Give the person time and soon it won't be a Mary Sue.

Good point. My purple-eyed OC naed Diamond Rose, for instance.

Hazel Grace. Ugh.
Augustus Waters. Ew.

My English teacher forced the class to read The Fault In Our Stars. Nope, not going to forgive her!
