WIP Challenge Check-in, Day 19 -- Saturday

[linaewen]

Saturday is here at last!  I hope it's a great day for you, whether writing happens or not.

Have you had a good week of writing?  Did you accomplish any of your goals?  Do you feel like you are on track for what you wanted to accomplish this month?  Post here anything you want to share, like story snippets, word counts, complaints about writer's block, or pleas for betas.

Here's one last Flamingo-influenced discussion post for the week:

 

How do you feel about lack of comments on a story you've posted.  At archive sites where kudos is given, is this good enough feedback for you or would you prefer comments?

Comments

I'm visiting family today, so I'm not sure what will happen with writing. But the chapter I'm working is begging me to pay attention to it, and that's a good sign. I've got everything I need with me to work on it, so if I get some quiet time to myself, I should make some progress.

Comments are always gratifying, but I also appreciate kudos and read count on a story. Whoever invented the kudos button, thank you! I think it's a great way to let an author know the story was well-received -- for me, it's enough as a writer to get that kind of acknowledgment. If a person clicks the button and also leaves a comment, that's a double blessing. ;-)

I love the kudos button very much. I will leave a kudos on pretty much anything I enjoy, even if it isn't something I plan to read again. AO3's bookmarking is also good though for showing the stuff I like/rec the most.
