Seeing yet another rant on the ev01 that is unsolicited con-crit, I just have to wonder... where -is- it??! I don't see it! So where! Where! WHERE??!
...It's not just that -my- stories never get con-critted except by my close friends (sometimes rarely maybe), it's that I like -never- see con-crit on anything I read in HP on lj, and I do browse comments. Forget crit, I don't tend to see more than 5 words at a time (because typing is hard work, y'know). I sometimes get "crit" (like, 'oh, that was confusing' or 'write more' or 'omg INCEST'-- I dunno if that counts, more like flames and general grumbles I guess, but I'm desperate) on Fiction Alley, but the closest I've ever come to seeing con-crit on an HP story on lj in the last year or two was someone pointing out that a g-spot wasn't a prostate, nonono. (Even I was tempted to make an anony!comment with that one.)
...Yes, indeed. (Hello, fandom. Good-bye, fandom.)
( Er. )
