Fic Talk > I Challenge You....
Engarde!!! The writing challenge's final chapter :O(
mare:
Thought i'd start one final thread for this since we are nearing the end of this challenge and I don't think people who finished have been checking the thread. I'd love to use this thread as a dicsussion thread for all the stories that were read. Some final thoughts and of course the final surveys you guys still need to fill out etc...
:)
Most of you have completed the reading part of the challlenge, which of course is the most important part.
There are a few of you in danger of not finishing this challenge. I hope you guys step up and are able to do it, if nothing more than for the people whose stories you're reading.
Mel - You still need to read 6 more chapters of 00Carter
Saka Steph - You need to read 44 more chapters of 00Carter
Rachel and everyone above - You need to fill out your survey about the story you read
All of you have until Next Wednesday to complete this challenge!
Everyone else, don't forget to fill out the reader's survey!
:)

This is the readers final survey. Fill it out only if your reader has finished your story, and be honest! If you feel like your reader didn't give you adequate feedback, now's the time to ask for more details or clarification, etc... but remember only ask if you are willing to listen to the answer.
I'll be back on Monday for more bugging! (You know you all love me!) lol

1. Did you get regular feedback on your chapters from your reader?
2. Did you respond to that feedback?
3. Did your reader take the time and post about what they read in the forum thread?
4. Do you feel like you got the amount of feedback you were expecting?
5. Was there anything that the reader of your story said that surprised you?
6. Do you feel like the feedback you got was constructive and something you would use as a tool to help you out later?
7. Overall did you think this was a positive experience? Why or why not?
8. Is there any question you have for your reader that you would like them to elaborate on?
9. Would you consider taking part in something like this again?

I'll go first I guess lol I have two of these to fill out so i'll start with Kristal!
Who was the person reading your story? Kristal (alota-cookin)
1. Did you get regular feedback on your chapters from your reader? Yes I did.
2. Did you respond to that feedback? Always
3. Did your reader take the time and post about what they read in the forum thread? Yes, she did and I appreciated it!
4. Do you feel like you got the amount of feedback you were expecting? I wasn't sure how much feedback to expect so I was very pleased with the amount I got so, yes. lol
5. Was there anything that the reader of your story said that surprised you? Not really. lol
6. Do you feel like the feedback you got was constructive and something you would use as a tool to help you out later? It was more reactionary than anything else and I enjoyed that. It gave me a chance to see what she was thinking when she was reading it.
7. Overall did you think this was a positive experience? Why or why not? I did enjoy it. At first I was scared. It's always scary when you know someone is reading this only because they have to for a challenge, but yes it ended up being great. I always looked forward to knowing what their thougths or opinions were going to be on any given chapter.
8. Is there any question you have for your reader that you would like them to elaborate on? Not really, I think Kristal was pretty clear on how she felt about the story.
9. Would you consider taking part in something like this again? Absolutely
10. Do you have any comments for your reader or anyone in general who may want to read your story in the future? I just wanted to thank Kristal for giving my story a try. I know it's not something she would normally read and to see her so receptive to it was awesome!

5. Was there anything that the reader of your story said that surprised you? Nope lol
6. Do you feel like the feedback you got was constructive and something you would use as a tool to help you out later? Just like kristal, Erika's feedback was more reactionary so it was the same type of thing as far as looking forward to seeing what she thought of some of the chapters.
7. Overall did you think this was a positive experience? Why or why not? Yup same answer as above lol
8. Is there any question you have for your reader that you would like them to elaborate on? Nope, but I am curious to know if she did go anf read the short story about the attacker? lol
9. Would you consider taking part in something like this again? Yuppers, my mind did not change from ten seconds ago lol
10. Do you have any comments for your reader or anyone in general who may want to read your story in the future? Just wanted to thank you to Erika for reading, commenting and reviewing this story. I appreciate it!

Tracy's Survey:
Who was the person reading your story? Carter-Orange
1. Did you get regular feedback on your chapters from your reader? Not every chapter but she did review frequently.
2. Did you respond to that feedback? Yes I did.
3. Did your reader take the time and post about what they read in the forum thread? Yes she did.
4. Do you feel like you got the amount of feedback you were expecting? Yeah she commented every 3 chapters or so.
5. Was there anything that the reader of your story said that surprised you? I was surprised at some of the comments....lo oking back it made me question myself as a writer.
6. Do you feel like the feedback you got was constructive and something you would use as a tool to help you out later? In a way it did. It was an old story and my writing has improved a lot since YGLANBN was written. I probably should have picked a more current story.
7. Overall did you think this was a positive experience? Why or why not? It was...I enjoyed it. But for personal reasons, it made me rethink some things. I don't blame the challenge, I have changed as a writer.
8. Is there any question you have for your reader that you would like them to elaborate on? No she was pretty clear.
9. Would you consider taking part in something like this again?
Yes I would.
10. Do you have any comments for your reader or anyone in general who may want to read your story in the future? You Give Love A Bad Name was my first fanfic. I probably made a bad choice in picking that, but it was completed and I wanted some constructive criticism on it. I would love for someone to read the other stories in the series and do the same. I really appreciate her taking the time to read and giving me a chance.
