My Position on Reviews:

Now, pray do not take this wrong, but here on FFnet the authors post their work for all to see. They do it for free. They expect no remuneration. In fact, the only coin they desire is feedback, and they DO desire that. If we make a mistake, we expect to be told.

If our writing stinks, we would HOPE that someone would be kind enough to point out ways in which it could be improved. ("Hey, those punctuation keys are NOT included on the computer keyboard by accident. Try them out. You won't regret it!")

If the writing is good, so much the better. Say so! Even one line is better than nothing. ("Enjoy your work." or "Good story! What happens next?" or "I just don't get this. You should go learn to knit.") Silence is the hallmark of apathy, and apathy has no place in this community. Speak up! You have a voice! Use it!

This was not intended as a rant or a begging session. The presence or absence of reviews is not going to color my approach to the story one iota. I am writing because I have to. My Muse stands behind me with a riding crop and applies it liberally if I so much as slow down, Real Life intrusion notwithstanding.

But, please, My Friends! Listen!

You are depriving yourselves of a hand in the creative process every time you pass up the chance to review! Seriously! If you want to get better as a writer ... hey, write reviews! You could do worse. And you may even strike up a new friendship. I always respond to the reviews I get, and have frequently had other authors respond to mine ... and believe me, I am NOT SHY about leaving reviews on the stories I read! You can meet the coolest people that way.

Try it!
