Receiving very positive feedback

[Former Member]

WOW! Today I opened my email for the first time in a while and was really surprised by the content. I feel so humbled right now. People have been emailing me with such awesome feedback. I actually feel happy. I don't feel embarrassed or ashamed about writing.

 

This is such a good feeling. Now, I need to keep posting chapters and new stories. It's like a drug

Shout if you need any help.

You know I will. I wish I received as many reviews from the readers on this site as I have from the others, but it is what it is.

The way I look at it, every rejection letter I get from an agent is simply because they lack any good taste

 

(Yeah, I still get a little down, but thinking that helps take the sting out of it.)

Yep, and don't forget to send back a thank you, even if it's a quick form letter. I think readers like the personal touch, provided you're not getting swamped by dozens of emails a day.

Dont hesitate to contact me if you need assistance. Way to go. Thanks for posting this.

It's a great feeling, isn't it?

 

The other part of the review system which I love is that it connects me to my readers. If they have a question about the story which is not answered within the story (some of them, I didn't even think of), I can use it to answer them. I only ever include about 20% of what went through my mind whilst writing in the story anyway. Sometimes it's just not relevant to the plot or won't fit, but I need to understand it to write the story convincingly. So often I know the answer already and can share the extra bit of information. The other nice thing about being the writer of your own canon is that you can invent answers where you didn't think of something beforehand, which I find enriches the canon world you write for considerably. I love working with reviews.
