May. 23rd, 2005 09:26 pmI review a lot. Basically, one can be safe assuming that if I read something and liked it, (something on LJ, or FA, or some other place where reviewing is easy), I reviewed it. And, as most of the things I read are on recs or from great authors (here's looking at you, flist! <3<3), I like most of them. However, I don't write a lot, or spectacularly, so I'm not sure how writers respond to people like me--people I've termed serial reviewers. After a certain point, do reviews from the same person start to lose your interest? If a person has reviewed your work five times? or ten? Do you think that the person is simply reviewing to review, or does each individual review make you happy? Also, if you had a long, chaptered, novel-length, would reviews on each chapter irritate you, or would they make you think the reader really enjoyed the fic? What if you were friends with the reader? Would that make you value their reviews more or less?

Date: 2005-05-27 09:44 pm (UTC)Crazy!Draco...how I adored him. I adored that whole fic. It was so, so gorgeous. And the end! The last scene! With his parents, and Sirius, and Crazy!Draco
and me sobbing my eyes out. Wow. That fic took me for such a ride.A Thousand Beautiful Things! I actually just read that for the first time maybe three or four weeks ago, and if I weren't SO backlogged on things I should read, I'd really like to read it again. As it is, I haven't even read the sequel yet--off to do that momentarily!--and I'm really looking forward to it. That fic was just so well-crafted! And Draco was so noble and misunderstood and just. Oh. Really good.
