*makes note to email adoring drooling fanmail instead of sending it over messenger* I've been reading online for years and as a general rule email 90% of authors to thank them for the privelege of reading. It seems the polite thing to do. However it gets daunting sometimes as to what to say, i have talked to another reader that told me they never sent emails because they felt that they didn't know how to comment in a way that was intelligent. Basically that they had nothing to add except that they enjoyed the story and how many times must an author get such a useless email. After a half hour lecture on the fact that that isn't a useless comment that person now emails faithfully.
Myself as a reader with absolutely no talent for words atttt alll i can understand where that thought comes from which is why most of my thanks go something along the lines of "great story thanks for sharing"
So basically although in a perfect world everyone who enjoys your work, which is probably anyone that has ever read more than 3 words of it, would give you feedback. I'd try not to let it get you down when you don't get it cause YOUR WONDERFUL AND ANYONE THAT DOESN'T THINK SO IS BONKERS
