*hugs you* Thank you, Katie! I so appreciate your feedback, but please do not feel obligated to leave it. I gladly accept all comments. However, I understand that life gets busy sometimes or you don't know what to say or you just hate what you read, and you don't want to hurt the writer's feelings by saying so. I'm sure there are dozens of other reasons why people read but don't comment.
As for the beta issue, don't mind, but I'm going to copy and paste from my reply to another comment:
Surprisingly, a lot of people have responded to my request. I have no idea what I'm going to do yet, but I will certainly keep your offer in mind. I appreciate your willingness to help. At present, I don't have anything written that I want someone to look at. I have a vague idea for a story rolling around in my brain, but I don't know if it makes sense to write it or even if I CAN write it well. And then there are characterization and structure questions. I thought it might help to have a sounding board or boards. Not that I'm arrogant enough to believe my actual writing wouldn't benefit from another pair of eyes. If I take on this story, I know I'll want to have someone else take a look at it before I make an ass of myself.
Thanks for offering; I've read your writing, and I'm sure you would be great. Just let me figure out where I go next. :)
As always, looking forward to more updates from you!
Thank you! I'm looking forward to reading more from you, too, once you have time to breathe. :)
