feedback and the pleasure of writing
Sep. 17th, 2005 06:05 pmYeah, yeah, I'm going to write/edit eventually this afternoon. First, though, more (unlocked) meta, rambling thoughts on posts seen everywhere on LJ and JF lately.
(First, though, I must say that the f_w thread about Atlantis fandom provided hours and hours of entertainment - so many ten-cent words and fandom flounces and journal deletions, and I still have absolutely NO IDEA what the original kerfuffle was about! That's fantastic! I have no desire to be in a fandom with any one of those people, but man, do they provide entertainment when they get going.)
Ahem. Anyway. Feedback. Many people are getting their backs up about feedback - the definition, what constitutes good and bad feedback, and how authors are "supposed" to feel when they do or don't get feedback. This would be my "fuck it, no one cares, but I'm going to tell you how I feel anyway" post.
( the definition is everything )
