I hate Facebook. I understand busy (a corset in a WEEK, really, Lady?) but I read. Now that I'm getting in to corsetry professionally, I do love looking at your work. I'll never be on a par with your work since what I'm doing is a different sort of thing, for a lingerie shop. But I have SO much to learn and it's all OTJ training. I need to get a good book and read up to find out, really, what all I *don't* know about this.
But yes please, I'd like to see what you're working on or just the odd piece. Your work is so beautiful.
I like Facebook because, currently, it's got the most activity and I've gotten most of my orders from it. In terms of format, ya, it does suck. But, it's got life... and people don't post mean shit to my walls like they do to my journal here.
booo, I hate it when people's negativity ruins good things. Facebook is cool, and I'm a fan of your page there too, but I just love the format of LJ so much more.
Ya, it's an unfortunate shame, because I really liked LJ.. but now it seems to be populated with assholes who trod reputable independents through the mud...why bother posting when I'm clearly not interested in catering to those jerks? Well, I guess people like YOU who are kind enough to post and comment. I like for you to see my work. :)
Those other jerks won't order from me and I'd never take their order regardless! :p
I understand there have been a few corsetmakers who have neglected communication/gone bankrupt during orders...but it's created such paranoia that if a corsetmaker doesn't answer a client within 24 hrs they think you've fled to Mexico...
There seems to have been a little bit more life lately, but LJ is pretty dead. Still worth putting stuff up though I'd say. It can't hurt. Facebook does seem to have taken over, and as you're promoting to people who already 'like' you there should be less jerk issues. But it moves so fast you have to post more frequently. Merits to both, problems to both, just like most things.
Ya. But, the cons have outweighed the pros by this point; I post my work and I get asshole comments trying to egg me into an argument/debate over my word choices, or over my finishing... fuck them!! Haha.

*boggle* What the fuck? WHY would someone DO that? That's just ... wow. Sad lives, some people live.
If you're getting those kinds of assholes, then, yeah... making the move makes sense. :( I'll be sad to miss you, though; I hate FB with a burning passion (their privacy practises are ... really wretched).
