Hey CC, I wouldn't say all feedback is kudos, etc. I had someone tell me they wanted to vomit. She's still reading though.
I personally want to know what people feel. I just wouldn't want the whole thing turned into a discussion about a related topic. But then if it did, I'd at least know that people were at
least looking at my story.
I agree with this comment:
Newbies should assume some obligation to know the neighborhood before going in and criticising the landscaping.
But sometimes when you have looked and looked and can't find anything... You get my idea.
Yeah, Chief Pam:
Constructive criticism can be very useful, I agree -- for those of us who really are looking to improve our skills as writers, it's essential -- but saying "there shouldn't be any fics where Lois is dead" or "Clark should never get serious with anyone who's not Lois" isn't particularly constructive, to my mind
My story has just exactly the above. And some people hate it that part of, but they keep reading. (And thank you very much by the way.)
Constructive criticism is good. Nasty cruel feedback isn't. I haven't had any, but I've seen it.
