Question of the Day - Part 4

<< < (96/145) > >>

FrickingKaos:
I get random people on twitter that say they are reading and they liked my story. I just say thank you...but it really isn't hard to leave a review honestly.

Rose:
Here's what it breaks down to. While I'll be the first to say I write for me before anything, I'll never say I write solely for me. If I did, I wouldn't have the goal of one day getting published. I wouldn't be posting my stories here. All of us care to an extent. What bugs me, are the people who I see bitch on twitter about not getting reviews, or not getting enough reviews.

To those people I always want to yell at them to just be grateful people are enjoying your work.

Some people focus in on that and while all of us love feedback (or we wouldn't post it anywhere), some people are almost obsessed with it. I don't get why either.

FrickingKaos:
I haven't seen anyone being that obsessed with feedback on twitter lately. I don't write only for that reason. We all want feedback like you said, I'm sure that there is not a single person here that feels otherwise.

Rose:

I was speaking generally Tracy about stuff I have seen in the FF part of the fandom.

Purpura Lipstick:
Rose you said exactly what I've been saying/thinking for years.   If we were the ONLY person we wrote for we wouldn't be posting for others to read.  I write what I like, but I post to share my work with others and it's nice to have others tell you they are appreciating it.  I have had a few people on twitter mention having read a story of mine, it makes my day to hear it.  If people leave a review that's awesome, but if they tell me another way they enjoyed it, I'll take that too. As I'm sure you all do as well. :)
