    Well, maybe that works for the rest of you, but has it ever worked for me? Noooo. Every extreme effort I make is ignored. Hell, I could save somebody's life and I'd be ignored. What could cause people to lose so much human decency that they'd just blow off an honest request for reads, reviews, and assistance?

    :) It is nice to just find this place. I always thought about why I am the only who gets like no replies maybe one reader who is always there or two but nothing more! Now I get to be around people who have gone through probably the same thing. It is sorta nice!

    *Do I sound like I hate my self. I hope not 'cause I don't go nuts with no replies just a little bit annoying deeing no one read a post*

    Oh self promotion time my fics are in my bio but my new one Tears of Glass isn't just yet but soon! Please read!

    To Mr. Bitter: If you want help, get a beta reader. At least someone will be reading your story. Maybe they'll have some good comments that will improve your style (not that there's anything wrong with it-- I don't know it) and help you attract readers.

    The number of relies I get isn't that bad. It's the number of readers I have. I've had more than one person reply to each of my fanfics, but only one person has remained a faithful poster for each of them. :( Ah, woe is me!

    My feedback habit has been broken, painfully. From October to December I posted a series of 10 shorts, got some replies and only one returning reader. Several times I considered not finishing the series, but that would have defeated the whole purpose for writing it in the first place.

    I'm doomed to write about subjects and in forms fanfic readers at-large don't really warm up to, so I keep writing and post anyway. Sure, it would be nice if somebody commented, but I don't write for the attention.

    *steps up to the plate*

    Hi. I'm Am. Alright. I admit it -- I
    LOVE Feedback!! I've been trying to hide in it, but, no, no, never again! If I don't get it I go mad, crazy, and insane. You slave over something for hours and you just want one hint that somebody in this wide, wide Universe likes it. I said it, the like word -- wash my mouth out with soap! Or soup. Ah, I cannot hide it anymore! Don't break my legs and expect me to walk! I don't want to walk, you can. I don't want to follow you into two Siths hells. It's enough you've dragged me here, this is a manifestation of truth, love, freedom and JUSTICE! What an abomination!! Thank you.

    *steps down*

    Whew. I know I get piles of feedback on average, but I have a greedy side. Humour me ;) On a normal note, hello everyone! *nods to Em* Long time no see.

    Please excuse my current mood,

    Am [face_love]

    Okay Okay I know double post. i am home alone and sick so what else is there to do heehee.

    We are all here for I think the same reason so why not help others that have our same hardships! If you want to help someone out I think we should look down the board at the number of replies the author has. Lets say this fic is out and it has 3 I think we should go in there and reply. You don't have to read it all you have to say is, "Great start please post soon." Just becasue we don't get replies a lot *well most of us* why make others suffer also. So take a minute and post a little reply to a fic. (this is just what I think it is not as if I am making you or anything ^_^)

    That was a just a little idea!

    After my field trip this week, I've got loads of free time, so, does anyone have a story they want me to read? I'll read anything. I have a hard time reading OT, but I read them anyway.

    I suspect you should check the last few pages. :D Everyone here is dry on reviews and desperate.

    Including me. [face_mischief]

    You will soon be swamped by requests.
