my other sites: PLEASE PRETTY PLEASE VISIT!!!!

ok, so, i have an account on a website called FanFiction.net. i currently have four stories on there, but a total of like, 23 reveiws at the most. TWENTY THREE REVIEWS. SERIOUSLY?!?!? DO YOU REALIZE HOW LONG AND HARD I WORK ON THOSE STORIES AND HOW MUCH THEY MEAN TO ME?!? YOU COULD AT  LEAST  HELP ME OUT A LITTLE BY LEAVING REVIEWS!!!!!!!!! sorry for ranting, but it had to be done. and i also have a DA account. Da is short for Devaint Art, a website where you can post you're artwork or stories or whatever. it's a really awesome website. i'm  content with the reveiws I get there, but i would love it if more people knew about it. i don't know.... it just REALLY irks me. so, i thought maybe if i put them  on here, some people might check it out. so what do you think? you wanna check them  out??? pretty please???? by the way, fanfic is free so you should sign up. DA is free too as long as you don't upgrade.

READ THE FOLLOWING:

Writers- all of them, from famous authors to subtle FF writers- ALL depend on the feedback from readers. Read this NOW!

Lack of reviews is the greatest killer of fan fic writers out there. We at the institute wish to let the public know of how they can pitch in to save our dying authors.

1) Drop a review every other chapter. It may not seem like much, but reviews are actually what many of us want to see. That, and hits. Hits do make us happy but we don't really know if people like our story or not.

2) Visit an author's profile page. Those kind of hits really make us happy. It's where we showcase our entourage of friends, favorites, polls, beta readers, and stories. Some of us even tidy up with set areas for upcoming story ideas and character bios.

3) What you call being "too lazy to review" is what we call "a flame to the pages" as the writers. That one minute or two that you felt "too lazy" to review is another minute of creeping discouragement that all writers feel as they begin to think...

"Why am I even here…?" "What's even the point of continuing?" "My skills must be terrible…no one cares for my story…" "I'll never be a good author...I quit."

These are only a few thoughts that go through every single author's head when we put out a chapter/story that we poured all our heart and soul within, and we sit there…and sit…and wait…and not a single person says even a word.
If you're not a writer, you have NO IDEA how much that hurts…

If you ARE a writer, then I'm sure you know just how great it feels when someone is kind enough to leave a heartwarming and encouraging review, and you read it, smiling while thinking…"Wow...I did it…"

So, why not give fellow writers the same luxury here?
WAY too many times I've seen amazing, epic, and utterly beautiful works of literary art fall to pieces before finally being abandoned due to the terrible discouragement that the lack of reviews can cause.

Sometimes, it is so severe that the very writer her/himself decides to quit, denying the world his skills of writing that I'm sure it would have deeply enjoyed.

So…
Just one minute, that's all it takes. Just a few gentle taps of the fingers on your keyboard, a few seconds or so of your time, and your words can SAVE a writer from quiting something they love.

Please. Do me a favor: Go find a story, ANY story, anywhere here on Fanfiction.net, and see if you can help it. If it has very little-to-no reviews at all, just check it out, and say whatever comes to mind.

And enjoy the thought in mind that you could have just SAVED that story, with just a few taps of your keyboard…

If you agree with what I have said then please copy and paste any part of this you wish onto your profile. Modify it in any way you see fit; there is no need to use my exact words. You make it say what you want it to say.
