Mare's update corner...Wow *cough* it sure is dusty in here!
mare:
Thanks guys. I know i'm being a ninny muggins, but I can't help it. LOL
starbeamz:
I don't know who ninny muggins is, but she can't be as awesome as Mare. Stop comparing yourself to whoever this fool is :P
Rose:
LOL what's a ninny muggins? Is that like Mary Poppins's disfigured cousin?
RokofAges75:
You are definitely being a ninnymuggins. A cotton-headed one. I'll forgive you because I love you, but seriously, stop it. I fell behind because of school and being braindead when I get home at night (I don't like to even read while braindead; it's hard LOL). I caught up because I love this story, not because I felt obligated because you were asking for feedback. You know me; normally that's the kind of thing that turns me off to a story! You are too good for that.
You're not the most popular author on AC for nothing! People love your stories! You just have to remember that not everyone is in a position to drop everything they're doing and leave a review as soon as you update, and if they don't review right away, it doesn't mean they didn't like it or aren't still reading. You also have to remember that there may not be as many people even reading fanfic, period, since back in the days of Fly Fishing and Stays and Why I'd Do It All Again. And finally, like Julilly pointed out, with the Most Recent flaw, people who don't have you favorited but are still reading may not even know you updated, so you're probably losing a few readers just to that.
I honestly don't think it has anything to do with the story taking a direction people didn't like, but even if that was the case, so what? It's YOUR story. YOU'RE the only one who knows where it's going, and it's up to you to write it the way you're envisioning it. It shouldn't matter if other people want it to go that way or not. No one else knows where it's all going to end up; we're just along for the ride. You're in the driver's seat! People like me who are just enjoying the ride will stick with you to see how it all turns out. So hurry up and write! :)
Rose:
Wow you summed that up well, I can't think of anything to say but that.
Oh, and this...no one's told me what a ninnymuggins is yet :(...and is a cotton headed one itchier than a normal one? :) (Sorry, I'm feeling incredibly random today LOL)
