Comments on: 1.11 Notes http://kyanobenthes.com/2009/1-11-notes/ Wed, 16 May 2012 13:01:49 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Ky http://kyanobenthes.com/2009/1-11-notes/comment-page-1/#comment-767 Ky Wed, 01 Jul 2009 15:29:16 +0000 http://kyanobenthes.com/?p=607#comment-767 I would <i>never</i> decline a sincere critique from anyone, anytime, regardless of length; I mean, someone might leave a super long technical critique on style elements and such, and someone else leaves a short question on a psychologically illogical line of dialogue, but it's all useful to me. It's not like I'm requesting a super dedicated beta reader and a specific schedule of promises or anything. (It's not like I can maintain that kind of schedule either. LOL) As for why there's a deficiency of comments at all, I'm chalking it up to the summer vacation season (and it's close to July 4th here). I understand most people are also lurkers. That's all fine. I know I'd get a lot more hits if I shifted to FFnet, but I'm just unwilling to trade quality for quantity of comment hits at this point (I'm not saying I don't <i>like</i> random comments, of course, but I'll just assume any hit on this site from someone who doesn't leave a comment is someone who liked it but is a lurker). And yes, it looks like direct registration on this site will leave contact information in the Wordpress database, but anyone who logs in with OpenID does so externally, I guess.

Thanks for the concern ^_^. So, I noticed your plug on the shizunatsu LJ. I'm not really "fresh eyes", but if you wanted me to do a bit more thorough look over on things (I can be pickier when I give myself more time), I'd be happy to. Of course, there are some really good writers that sometimes check in there that might be interested in the job. Actually, I was thinking this before... but it's kind of appalling that no one else has commented here. Ah well, maybe they'll see you've updated now and start rolling in any time. Is my assumption that my registering for this site gives you fairly simple access to my email correct? Well, for now I'll continue laboring under that impression. Feel free to contact me should you so desire. I don’t really have splints but I’ve acquired an interesting and fairly effective array of padded arm rests. Thanks for the concern ^_^.

Also, a friend with tendinitis said a split keyboard helps her; maybe you have that option. Anyway, don't overdo it. ;) Hah, that does make me feel a little better. Thanks, and I'm onto working out the 1.12 outline. It's going to be a doozy. I hope you’re using decent splints.

It's tendinitis, and it looks like it should be manageable if I continue to limit what I use my hands for, for the next couple weeks. Replying here actually provided me with a test of sorts to see if I'd be ok to go back to work part time (I do data entry...) You're quick with your revisions. I'm impressed- and don't be too embarrassed. If I told you some of the continuity errors I'd put into stories it would probably provide a few good laughs. I once forgot what color a main character's eyes were... Some of the other mistakes I'm not willing to admit to just now. Anyway, cheers for now. Happy writing and good luck.
