Do You Ever Find Writing to be a Bit Like Skinny-dipping?
I like to write, I just don't always want people to, you know... see it!

@StormInaTeacup I find it interesting how different people react to a bit of creative writing. I've posted stuff in various places and gotten widely differing opinions. I particularly value negative responses. It shows me that not only did the person read it, they felt strongly enough about it to respond!
@GerOttman constructive criticism is always helpful, but it is nice to get positive reviews too.

@StormInaTeacup It doesn't always have to be constructive. What I mean is, when someone likes it they may respond with "I enjoyed this, or nice story". When someone dislikes something they will often become much more elaborate in their response. They invest much more time and thought into the response. It's kind of gratifying to me when someone feels strongly enough to do that.
