ff'net and YOU....

[lyssie]

HAH. My supposition that posting Kara/Anders to ff'net would pretty much garner no feedback? Yeah. Born out (Circe, you've read it all already).

Surprisingly, the Dualla/Lee fic got a review.

Someone wanted to know why Kara and Lee don't end up together in ShagAThonAGoGo. I politely told her Chief has better stamina (my immediate response of, "Because I fucking hate Kara/Lee" would have been rude).

Still, if you add up all of the reviews I've ever gotten... It's still at least a thousand less than Nancy of the fruity wine fic, or the half-thousand Mary Sue authors. Probably far less than most of the Kara/Lee authors on there, too. Certainly a hell of a lot less than the other Sam/Jack authors.

Hell, the people who demand feedback to finish stories get more feedback than me.

Luckily, I keep reminding myself: the goodness of a story is in direct proportion to the amount of feedback. The more feedback, the more crap.

With a bit of luck it'll get people over here to read quality stuff. [Insert diety here] knows it's difficult to find on ff.net. Just think of it as performing a public service.

There does appear to be a distinct lack of incentives to post quality fic over there, just a push to post in bulk to leapfrog to the top of the queue. After putting up with that kind of attitude for so long discovering LJ has been a bit of a culture shock. Actual encouragement happens...

*laughs* I never considered it that way.

Unfortunately, my updates tend to be in bulk, since I tend to randomly forget feel too lazy to upload to ff'net, and, ah, thus cause a massive influx of Kara/Anders fic to appear (or, last week, it was the backlog of Weir/Sheppard and Domino/Cable).
