I think you don't get why I'm pissed at you. Let me explain.
When someone takes the time to post a story they have written online, they are eager to hear feedback, and hopeful that it will be good. Writers are very touchy about their work because its little peices of them put into words.
The last thing they want is a smart comment about one word and then hear about how you didn't bother to read the story to begin with. That is not appreciated. Sorry if I lit into you a little, but we writers are a touchy lot.  . |
No, I know that. I write things. I used to post them on sites. I know how eager the feedback level is on things. But you shoul still be open to questions nonetheless.
And my question was
why you chose the French word. And finally, you answered it. Thank you.
And dont tell me how writers are. I've been writing various random poems/songs/stories/scripts since I was 8 years old. I know what writers want to hear. But you have to conclude that this is an internet forum. It isnt a catch-all for desperate writers starving for feedback on any medium.
Edit:
PS. I'm sort of disapointed you didnt take up the "That is redundant and pointless" thing I said. I was hoping if I lobbed one up, you'd take it instead of smacking the umpire in the balls with the bat when you get the chance.
