dude all i want is some indication that the invisible guests (or visible, that's cool too) are reading my fic and liking it rather than reading and clicking away in utter disgust

maybe.....only five people turned in rough drafts so.......

i think most writers would just like some sort of acknowledgement that the reader enjoyed the story they wrote (so even an 'i liked this writer thank you for sharing it!' is something) because not a lot of people comment.
if you want to really engage the writer or leave a helpful response i like when reviewers point out exactly what they liked (like...i liked character a's characterization or i thought this scene was really funny). and then follow up with some general comments about the story.
if you want to get even more into it you single out a quote or part from a section you liked and explain what you liked about it (ie you wrote this well, i think you really got the point across about character a's dorito's obsession here).
if you want to cross over into extreme intellectual conversation you start commenting about the characters and the plot and ask the writer questions about their decisions while writing the fic but don't put the writer on the defensive (don't be like why did you make character a such an asshole it doesn't make sense with the rest of the plot he's not an asshole in real life wtf). maybe even get into things where you discuss themes you noticed in the story (ie i liked the rise and fall of corruption theme that you have going on in this fic. from where character a started as an asshole bc he was living the high life as a host but the corruption of the job - drugs, sex, alcohol - got to him after an assault, so he turned his back and crawled his way out from the underlife. where'd you get this idea from?)

okay i'll be real no one is ever going to leave that last example but lol it'd be fun to respond to

did you send it recently?

(Anonymous) 2013-07-11 10:10 pm (UTC)(link)
da and not quite to the extent of your last example but when I read longfics with a lot of plot I pick out points like that to talk about or just to mention that I noticed/liked what the writer was doing? I got told in a comment lately that I noticed a lot in the fic. I wish more comments like this were left for people, with discussion and picking out themes and interesting things like that.

(Anonymous) 2013-07-11 10:12 pm (UTC)(link)
really, as a writer I just like seeing people tell me they read my fic, and they enjoyed it.

I really, really love those comments that might go into a little more detail (quote things, tell me what exactly they liked, why, how I conveyed something etc) but really, most everyone is happy with a simple "I liked this!"

comments are so hard to come by, I enjoy whatever I get and appreciate it!

gj anon! this was cute. fandom really needed an otaku!myungsoo fic. irl he doesn't hide his manhwa-loving ways at all lol

If you dropped dead right now, do you worry how your online friends will find out?

I worry about it a lot. If I die how does the internet find out? So few of them know my full real name but I count them among the people I am most close to....

thanks for getting back to me mod! sry i was paranoid ;~;

(Anonymous) 2013-07-12 04:40 am (UTC)(link)
i think about this a lot and i think what would happen is one of the internet friends who had my phone number would text me something dumb, and whoever had my phone post-mortem would say "sry did you know anon's dead?". my friend circle is kind of interconnected so eventually everyone would find out.

you could always give your passwords to someone you're really close to just in case they ever have to post something, but i'm not worried enough about it to do that.

idk what to prompt /o\

(Anonymous) 2013-07-12 02:01 pm (UTC)(link)
you don't know what kind of fic you'd like to read?

the form wasn't ideal for this type of thing, though. i like exchange forms that have you list pairings and prompts separately.

(Anonymous) 2013-07-12 02:09 pm (UTC)(link)
same, it took me forever to figure out something in particular that i wanted, not just "any fic for my otp -3-"

(Anonymous) 2013-07-12 03:16 pm (UTC)(link)
yes and no? like i know in a general sense what i like to read but i don't have any specific ideas

(Anonymous) 2013-07-12 03:21 pm (UTC)(link)
general ideas work, too! aus and general plot ideas for example.
