How would you like to be reading Moby Dick and then Melville's ghost pops up out of nowhere and says, "how about them whales?"
I agree with you and Flopsy that maybe the pop-up message is likely not a good thing, but I personally would love to have Melville's ghost pop up and ask the question. Not only in Moby Dick but I can imagine a few other ghosts who would be so much fun to talk too....LOL
I also agree with Februs, and the reason for the start of this particular forum, we have done well over the past year and I for one, as a writer still under a year (but barely), the comments on my stories have been great. I also have achieved a good number of views and without all those couch potato's (I say that in a teasing loving way) I would not have attained the number of views I got.
I would like all the readers to know that as authors we love comments but there is a lot of satisfaction in just having the stories read, and for that all the writers on this site really appreciate you reading the stories.
