Hi Sebastian !

I think that is not a bad idea to improve other's writings, always with
their aknowledge and agreement I mean.
At the opposit it is a good thing: I my opinion this is the best way to
express Your disappointment with the plot developed by the author.

I didn't write fanfictions at all, but My suggestion is read as much fanfics
as You can and like and, above all, read the critics about them in order to
avoid the same errors (in my job avoiding errors already made by others is
vital!).

What's Your opinion about "End of Eva"? Do You think there will be a sequel?
Personally I hope to see "only one" movie (not new series of episode) to
clarify everything and close definitively the questions raised by EoE.
