I understand that the lack of reviews has sent you into a funk, hun, but to be honest sometimes I wish everyone actually paid attention to one thing. If I get only 1 review I'm happy. Look at my hit counter on my site and you will see what I mean. Compared to everyone else I don't seem to get read hardly at all. In all the time I have been a Misfit I have recieved 3 reivews from my site. Every fic I put out there for ppl to read I was jumping for the moon if I got 5 reviews. I seemed to average for a year about 5 reviews for short fics and 3 reviews per chap for long ones. They have only gone up with SIYV and GS, but still I dont' get reviews from my site or many ppl interested in my site. All the drabbles and slash I write besides GS still get an average of 12 to 15 reviews combined from all the places I post

Rae - I review every story you write either on the tag or through the BSV because they have a review form. I definitely like your work, and you have written some pretty amazing drabbles too. You really rock things out in so few words. It takes me 10,000 words to do what you do in 100 it seems. Guess that means I suck eh

I'm definitely still reading your fics! I don't really remember if I reviewed for your last few updates or not, and if I didn't I'm sorry. I know that I did read them, and I really enjoyed them. I sincerely hope you don't stop writing Spuffy, but if you feel that that is the best thing for you, then I hope you enjoy what you decide to do instead. I know I'll miss you. :D
The lack of reviews is depressing, I will agree...there are some authors that get tons and tons, and some that get just a couple...and it never seems fair...I have talked to Megan and Holly about this, and that is part of why we created Sisters In Solace, so that we knew there was at least a group, however small, that were reading our fics and either enjoying them or letting us know what's wrong with them that needs fixing...
I totally agree with Rae--please don't leave, just because nobody is reviewing your stuff...all of us are finding that to be the case...well, most of us, at least...and it would be such a great loss to the fandom if you were to quit EVER! You are brilliant and artistic and wonderful, and believe me, we would kick ourselves in the ass if we lost you!
sending you big snuggly *hugs* and hoping that you stick around...the best is yet to come!
It's me.. you know I still reading your stories and I'll miss them dearly *sigh* Yesterday I saw an article on darker_spike about not leaving enough FB for manips. Well I skip the entries completely because I loose too much time on LJ (that I need to read). As others pointed it out: Remember Megan's post about not leaving FB for her stories? And surprisingly (or not) many lurkers did give feedback for this chapter. Oh hon.. I love your stories. I hope you'll be able to write soon. I just don't push for updates, I'm too patient I think but I'm always waiting. Cordykitten
i am one of the people who don't leave feedback. i do apologize for not leaving any. i forget sometimes how much it means to hear back from your readers. that is why i no longer write. i also have seen a lot of excellent writers leave my yahoo group fire and ice fic because of recieving little or no feedback. i promise to leave more feedback from now one.
