I wish writers would write to write. Because they love it, not because they have to please the crowd!

I couldn't possibly agree with this more! I hate when people beg for feedback or threaten to stop writing if they don't get any. Yes, it's nice to read someone else's thoughts, but write because you love it and you love the story not because you want someone to pat you on the back for it.
Carter-Orange:
I agree about writing for the love of writing and not to please people or for the reviews. I think it's selfish of writers to say they'll stop posting unless they get reviews!
RokofAges75:
Agreed!
Sakabelle:
I couldn't agree with you guys more. The one thing that will make me not want to leave a review, or stop reading all together is "I won't post until I get x number of reviews!" It makes it seem like the writer is only writing for the feedback, which gives me the vibe they aren't passionate about the story, which makes me completely uninterested in it.
FrickingKaos:
Wow that's crazy. I haven't seen anybody threaten to stop writing if they don't get feedback. I know I have complained about the feedback thing before, but not threaten my readers. That's just extreme!
