I don't think I've ever once written a review of a story, if & only if I like something, I just send the author an email. 'Do unto others' & all that.
Myself, I was blown away by the reviews from my two humble contributions. Not to mention the emails...
More reviews? You've got to be joking! I don't want 500 to read through...
All said & done, most of my stories are written for a particular person, they don't always want to share them with the world. If I can please that person, my work is done.
Sadly I've lost touch with 'Jessie' & feel unable to continue that one, which I feel had the most potential.
Good point about the poor grammar & spelling in many stories- I don't even read posts if they just 'don mak sinse' I cringe at their efforts.
I left school at the age of 15, yet can manage to go back & read what I've written & make changes. We all make mistakes, but some of us fix them afterwards- what else is a WP for?
Thanks so much for all the kind words re my stories, I can feel the inspiration coming back.![]()
