[Feedback Post]

To commemorate the 100th challenge at [livejournal.com profile] kh_drabble (as well as all sorts of other things), we'll be having this nifty thing called the Feedback Post. Basically, this is a cumulative feedback post, where people (both signed in and anonymous) can give feedback to any author. Basically, in order to participate in it, all you need to be is an author who has posted in this community before (because it's a feedback post, duh.)

For Those Who Want Feedback
1. Put your username down in the comments.
2. It is up to you, but I think it would be helpful if you put links to your latest drabbles. It is up to you, of course.
3. Do enable comment notification, because anonymous comments will be screened.
4. Do feedback to others too, especially if you like receiving your own feedback!

For Those Who Are Giving Feedback
1. Basically, general comments on their writing style, ideas, creativity? I know all of us here are authors, or at the very least, readers, so we do have an idea of what writing is like and how someone can improve. Even better, tell someone their positive points, because we all need a little ego boost now and then.
2. Slanderous reviews will be deleted. Just because it is anonymous doesn't mean that you can shoot your mouth any way you like. If people take advantage of it then anonymous reviewing will be turned off.

I hope that this would be useful and constructive to the participants of this community, but most of all, really fun as well.

So get to it!

(Oh, and if anyone wants to use this to feedback to the moderators about anything in the community, I suppose this is a good time as any to do so. Thanks.)

...I can never remember what I actually posted and in which order, so here are a random three. I promise to respond to everyone else at some later time, although I will likely do it anonymously, simply for the sake of amusement. ♥ (I like trying to guess who left what comment...)

All Fall Down (http://community.livejournal.com/kh_drabble/384625.html)

I just love your stuff, I have to admit. You're concise and the concepts you manipulate are really striking. Flurry of Flame is my favourite out of the ones you posted here, I love the descriptions. But they're not too wordy to get distracting so... 8D <3

Thank you! ♥ I sometimes feel that my concepts are a bit...ah...out there, so it's good to know they work well.

I like these :D They're pretty and descriptive, and I really like your use of language, it's simple and easy and it flows wonderfully. My problem would be that they're awfully vague (All Fall Down, especially)-- like pretty poetry, it's great to read, but I had to re-read a few times because I felt as though I'd missed the point of the drabble the first few times around.

I always love your ideas. They're so unusual and refreshing and dark in the sense that they are usually things that people do not consider, things hidden in the back of their minds. Sometimes your writing is a bit vague. I like to think I'm good at picking out subtleties in writing (though to be honest I haven't been the best at it XD), but with 'Flurry of Flame', for example, I just can't...pick out what is going on? The other two I adore, especially All Fall Down (if only because I love the perspective you use, and all the little naughty implications). But really, it's probably just nitpicking on my part... When I write vague stuff, I do it for myself, knowing that most people will not completely get it or even like it. I feel like all of your pieces are like that -- appreciated by few, but loved by those who appreciate it. (also, I feel like since I started reading your stuff, you've really developed a style of writing that I really like, not just a style of plot, if that makes any sense.) And now after copious rambling, I'll just say that you've got a fan here ♥
