Aug. 10th, 2006 10:27 amSeen quite a few entries on my flist the last couple of weeks about a kerfuffle, which is just a lovely word. I'm not really in the loop fandom gossip wise and I haven't had the online time to follow links and find the sources of the kerfuffles (look, it plurals) and I certainly don't want to get involved in other people's disagreements but I have a thing or too to say about reviews. I'll put it behind a cut because I'm kinda opinionated for a newbie.
( short rant about the unnatural politeness of people in fandom )
So I want to make it clear: I love concrit. I also love flat out criticism, opinions that I don't share, opinions that I violently disagree with, arguing, sniping, insults, lurkers, swear words and whispered endearments. And Spuffy. I don't hold to the 'if you have nothing nice to say, keep your mouth shut' adage. ALL comments are welcome on this LJ. If you don't like my fic, say so, please, if you can spare the time to say why even better. Disagree with me, dislike me, I take offence at nothing and it makes the compliments all the sweeter when people feel free to really speak their mind.
