I did no research what so ever, I don't like research. If you were too lazy to do research, for heaven's sake don't trumpet this fact to your audience. I saw this note attached to a story where the plot hinged around a major medical condition involving the lead character. I wonder if it ever occurred to her that, given her aversion to putting effort into getting the facts right, writing a story with a medical plotline might not be the greatest idea.
is the same one I recently walked away from after seeing that note - it was on Teaspoon. I shuddered in horror! (Part of my reaction's probably down to the fact that I *love* doing research for my fics - think it's the scholar in me coming out!)
