I have a question for the (WdC) masses regarding reviews you receive.
What do you do with reviewer feedback? Say it's for a short story you wrote for a contest that's ended or a one-off you wrote more than a year ago. Aside from fixing typos or glaring grammar errors, do you: edit the story to try to improve it? take the information as a learning opportunity and leave the story as it is? keep notes on feedback for future reference? other?
Since life is kind of unpredictable, I take feedback as a lesson for the future. Unless I've done something totally bone headed like the time I've tried to kill a vampire with a steak instead of a stake.
One is meat the other one is for camping and stabbing the hostile undead through the heart.
If I've got a glaring mistake that really needs fixed, I'll fix it. Otherwise I'll just try to keep what I find useful in mind for later.
I take note of what is said and immediately fix syntax errors (ie invalid links) that they pointed out. Later when I work on cleaning my port I will pull out my notes and decide if I want to work on the pieces or scrap them to make room for new projects.
Speaking of Secret Valentines...has anyone heard anything recently about this activity? I think it's supposed to start tomorrow...Does anyone know if Legendary❤️Maskis okay? She hasn't posted anything about it in a couple weeks and I'm concerned.
I guess since we haven't been assigned secret valentines, it's off (or delayed)? If you're reading this, Legendary❤️Mask, please don't worry about any of this–we want you rested and healthy!
Clicking through my notebook and finding all these well-wishes. Was I really gone through two anniversaries?? I think I stopped in a few times, but wow. Time is so weird.
I'm taking that leap, finally. It's been a long time, and I've missed this community so much I can't begin to say. To start, just a brief (brief? me? I'll try) post to say thank you for thinking of me over the past year...or, how long has it been? I've received messages, MBs, birthday and holiday wishes, snail-mail cards, letters, and kind notes from many of you. It means so much to me that you've taken the time to do these things.
