I love the way comments are done here. I like the format and I like the content, in that some of the criticisms are very valuable and accurate and meaningful - once I dry my tears.
I've had several comments here that (I believe) have greatly improved my stories because I took them to heart.
I love the venue of this library. I posted earlier versions of most of my stories on spankingmemories/SIN 8 or 9 years ago and I loved the sense of community that existed there, at least for a while. Many of you were there and you remember it.
But we had a great many more flamers and trolls and drive-bys at SIN than we have here. The Library is more refined, more orderly, more civilized. We have grownups around to "shush" us if we start getting too loud and affecting the enjoyment of other readers.
There's far less traffic here. On SIN, if one of my stories got less than 1,000 hits, that made it a "dud" in my mind. But if that was a small auditorium, this Library is a coffee shop, with a much more sophisticated and knowledgable audience. I love being here and look forward to getting all of my old backlog posted, plus anything new that made my fingers itch for the keyboard. Another month or two and I will post the two story lines I really came here to post and I will fade to the background - and read at one of the quiet tables in the back, with Saradora and Sarah Thorne and OTKgirl and my other old friends. But no matter how "active" here I am, I love this place and wouldn't change a thing.
