If you\u2019re ever like\u00a0\u201cbut what do fic writers even WANT.\u201d<\/p>\n

a book report<\/p>\n

They want a book report.<\/p>\n

They want you to get 9th grade English up in their shit.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Remember having to write ad nauseam about the symbolism of that stupid conch in Lord of the Flies? They want you to do that about Steve Roger\u2019s shield and Emma Swan\u2019s jacket.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

WHoa seriously?? People WANT this?
Holy crap, I always thought I\u2019d be really rude to leave an overly long comment on something, or it\u2019d just be super creepy for me to babble a load of emotional attatchment I had to their product, or all my wild fan theories which are probably wrong\u2026
I mean.. I know if I ever created something I\u2019d wanna see comments like that, but I\u2019m a weirdo and I haven\u2019t even created anything anyway so what do I know?
Umm.. yeah.. so\u2026 at my followers and friends and stuff: does anyone agree with this? Do I have permission to really ramble embarrassingly and honestly when I like your stuff, or would you prefer short and semi-rational comments?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I agree! I really like to read people toughts on my stuff, no matter the writing style.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I always LOVE knowing that readers understand why I chose certain ways of getting things across! I also love seeing which bits OTHER PEOPLE liked best! Since I\u2019m the author, I\u2019m biased. I either think my work is brilliant or I have crushing doubts. <\/p>\n

So – whichever you want, or feel comfortable with!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Every review or comment is a wonderful thing to receive and will probably make a fic writer\u2019s day, but yes. All of the above. Tell us your favorite line. Tell us what worked (or didn\u2019t! criticism is okay too!) a verbosely as you want. We definitely want to know.<\/p>\n

I get stupidly excited over every single comment because I still can\u2019t believe anyone reads the crap that I write.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Yes<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I\u2019ve made some amazing friends through comments left on fan fiction. I love to hear people\u2019s thoughts on chapters and what they loved or hated or what made them think. Just whatever comes to mind. I can be slow with it, but I try to get back to people that leave reviews from their accounts and I\u2019ve had times where we\u2019ve ended up great friends because of it.<\/p>\n

Yes! Always feel free to leave reviews and never be afraid that I\u2019ll judge you on it. Each and ever one of them makes me smile like crazy.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Yes! A book report! That\u2019s a dream come true!<\/p>\n

All comments are lovely\u2026 but knowing someone actually took the time to consider the words or the pacing – all the effort that writing takes – is fabulous!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

THIIIIIIIIIS TIMES A MIILLLIOOOOONNNN<\/p>\n

TELL me you noticed the foreshadowing. And the symbols and the allusions and the dumb pop culture refs. Make wild expansive meta of that one line in that one scene which I didn\u2019t actually think much about at the time I wrote it but HOLY SHIT THAT\u2019S SUCH A CLEVER IDEA OMG. Make me sweat because you noticed that one other thing I added and oh yes my god, they\u2019re onto me!\u00a0\u00a0Book reports. Live comments as you\u2019re reading. Seriously. I enjoy them so much.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
