So, people like my story! Yay!

Though, my half-baked theory that the more plot = the less comments seems... pretty correct, actually. Hahaha...haaah... <-- somewhat exhausted laughter because I heart feedback but omg writing porn is GRUELLING.

ETA: okay, writing the above makes me SO PARANOID because it's this THING again where if you talk about what it's like to receive feedback then you are being precious. And yet that site of engagement is such a complex one that I wish wish WISH fandom as a whole was more open to meta'ing and being frank about it (I know, I have said this before, but then I get - hah - paranoid, and lose my nerve and delete after all). But I am trying to be brave, and not think about being silently judged. CAN WE PLEASE, AS A COMMUNITY, JUST TALK ABOUT IT?

Ahem.


Anyway. Speaking of writing stuff, I am going to re-do the Nerdy PSA into a v.2, seeing as lots of people are still using it and I think I could tidy it up a bit and integrate a bunch of stuff left in the comments. If you have anything to add/weigh in on wrt accessibility and casual coding that isn't covered there, drop me a comment/PM/pigeon?

omg productivity!

Really? I don't get that. I've never seen it myself.

I think maybe then what I an thinking is that I don't understand what question is being asked here. Because the question that I read as being asked doesn't feel like what you want to say.

In my case it was more that I misread what you intended, and yeah, I guess I'm not well, uhm, contexted int your dialogue here. I thought you were saying that fandom doesn't talk about the disparity of comments in gen vs. porn, and I was wondering why anyone thinks that's a mystery. The case of Nancy Drew and the Commenting Disparity is, I fear, something that is so multifaceted that I couldn't begin to pick it apart.
