Writing a story takes a lot out of a person.

Petpleasureyes... I understand your disappointment... after posting my first story at this site a couple weeks ago I eagerly awaited people's reactions. When after a few days I saw that some thousands of people had read the story and I had yet to get a single review I didn't know what to think. Did the readers think the story sucked and were just being too polite to say so? I began to have doubts about posting further chapters. Finally I did get a couple of favorable reviews and an email or two which was enough to encourage me to go on with the effort. The thing is, I think most people are very reluctant to give out any information about themselves over the internet, and especially at sexually-oriented sites, so they are afraid to register as users, a necessary step in the review process. Probably if they were allowed to post their reviews anonymously, a lot more people would express their opinions. The only trouble with that is that then you {and I don't mean just you personally} would be likely get a lot of facetious, silly or just plain abusive comments along the lines of "F**k you, a**hole" or similar. The vetting process forces those who do want to post reviews to take some responsibility for their words, and excercise some degree of restraint, so I understand why this is done. Unfortunately, the subject of bestiality is not one that holds great appeal for me personally, so I would hesitate to try and review a story in which that is a central theme, much as I would like to give you some encouragement. Be patient. If you've gotten 6000 hits then at least it shows that a good many people are interested in what you have to relate. Are you satisfied with what you have created? Does it express what you wanted it to express? Then give yourself some credit and take some satisfaction in that, and try not to worry too much what anyone else thinks. No doubt the artist is his own severest critic.
