Congrats on getting your first fic posted! I hope you've been having fun with it. I think coming in from a roleplaying background is pretty common with fanfic! I'm guessing that Tristan's life pre-Isekai won't end up being very important, given their degree of amnesia, but I was intrigued by...

Ah, so the mysterious not-partner is a ditto! That’s fun; it’s rare to see a ditto get more than a bit part in a story, but there’s a lot you can do with them, especially if they’re going to be the sneaky antagonists type. Right now their motivations are a bit too vague to really latch...

Hey, Fobbie. Sorry for the mix-up with your earlier prize review; I’m here to round out the five chapters with comments on Chapter 40. Which is kind of unfortunate to read as a standalone, since it’s mostly battle and otherwise mostly brief scenes of characters coming or going. Definitely...

Review Blitz 2025 Welcome to Thousand Roads' seventh annual review blitz, our biggest feedback event and your opportunity to catch up with the fics you've spent the past year meaning to read. If you've participated in a review blitz before, you should find this one familiar! If this is your...

Blitz Hype and Fic Rec Thread Welcome to the 2025 Review Blitz hype and fic rec thread! This thread is for general Blitz discussion and hype--talk about your plans for the event, show off the prizes you've received, challenge someone to a review-off: it's all good! This thread is also your...

Eyyy, nice work! It's a lot of fun seeing all that classic artwork in there, and your commissioned pieces look right at home among them.

It has come to my attention that I've once again been bamboozled by time zones! The event is supposed to run a Sunday - Sunday (EST) schedule this year, which means it will actually begin midnight UTC Monday, December 22nd. Sorry for the confusion! Look out for the official rules, prizes, etc...

Hey, Arukona! Here with a long-overdue Blitz prize review, covering chapters 7-9. Like you said, this does work out nicely, since we're obviously closing out the opening arc here and getting ready to move on to grander things. I'm definitely ready to get out and see more of the world! I think...

I've been meaning to get into the swing of reading some poképod fics, and I'm happy to start off with this one! I really enjoy the "circle of life" angle you've taken with the beasts here; it's one I haven't seen attributed to them before, even though it makes thematic sense with their...

Welcome to the forums! And congrats on getting your first story posted; that's a big hurdle for everyone, so I hope you're feeling good about having gotten over it. This is a really interesting start! I like how you're playing with the expectations of the genre and indicating that something is...

As usual this year, I plan to catch up with my staples of Once a Thief, Places We Call Home, and Broken Things for sure! I also have some outstanding chapters of Legendarian Chronicles and What the Gods Gave Me (new chapter just out!!) that I need to catch up on as well. If possible I'd like to...

I'm closing up a little late, so no worries! Thanks to everyone helping out with prizes or running the event this year--I think we've got some very nice options to offer to our reviewers. Thanks especially to those of you who threw your hats in after I mentioned we were light on high-level art...

Thanks a ton for proposing this theme idea and hosting the corpse this year, Walrein! People had a ton of fun with it, both writers and readers, and it's always amazing to see new takes on the corpse concept. Also, a huge shout-out to all the writers in this corpse! There were so many...
