Feedback meme

swiped from elinued, because it's just such a fantastic idea:

Post a link to your fan fiction. (Mine is here.) The goal is this -- when you spot the meme, click on the link to that person's fanfic and pick something you haven't read before or never commented on when you did read it. The goal is to send positive feedback for something that you genuinely love reading. No negative feedback (after all, it's Valentine's Day, and we're all about showing the love) and no constructive criticism (since even when it's done nicely and is meant well, it can sometimes go the wrong way). Point out lines you loved, style choices you adored, that hot little thing that happened in the middle of the smut. Anything that you love to pieces.

You can do it as many times as you want for anybody you want but hopefully you should try to do it every time you see the meme. This way, for the next week or so, people will be getting all kinds of nice comments from people about their stuff, and I don't know about anybody else, but that always makes me happy. :) Plus, you might read something new that you missed before.

de-friend me

I'm going to have to go back to reading just a short, filtered list for LJ. I'm spending way too much time goofing off and reading everything everyone writes and not doing the stuff I really need to do.

So if you too are feeling overwhelmed and/or you aren't interested in my personal life or fics (especially since I'm probably not likely to be writing VigOrli again any time soon, if ever), this would be a good time to defriend me. Consider it your official day of amnesty.

(I don't like to defriend people first because some people get hurt feelings, and that's not my intention.)

(And I post my fics *everywhere* so if you just came here for the fics, you're unlikely to miss them if you're part of the same communities I am.)
