Pitch post question
Hey, all! Elizabeth and Gav of The Rec Center took me up on my offer to write a guest post for Guardian. Yay! and also Eeek!
In addition to the basic sell, I want to compare the subs on Viki with the subs on YouTube (since I prefer the YouTube ones) but I haven't watched the entirety of the show on Viki. The episodes I did see on Viki used "undergrounders" and "demi-humans" instead of Dixing and Yashou. Is there a word they use for Haixingians or is it just "human," and does use of those words (undergrounders, demi-humans, whatever they use for Haixing) continue through the series?
I'd like to give an angst warning, too, just in case. Do you think this is sufficient without being spoilery or discouraging? "Please be aware, this show is an emotional roller-coaster and follows the model of a lot of other Chinese romances. If you are emotionally fragile in These Trying Times, you might consider spoiling yourself. I did (I am emotionally fragile so I spoil myself for everything), and it didn't diminish my enjoyment or feels in the slightest."
Still pondering which fics I'm gonna recommend, so if you don't want me to include one of your fics in the post, please let me know!
Lastly, is it cool if I put a link to this comm in the post? I don't have a clue how many people subscribe to The Rec Center newsletter, but I think they've got a fairly large audience.
Thank you for your advice/thoughts/suggestions. I love everyone in this bar!
