As a story mod, I have to tell you that RRs are not the very best of this site, EPs are the creme de le creme here.
When I read stories here, and I read a lot, I read for content and with the intention of awarding a RR or nominating them for the EP. Technical issues do not come into play here unless they are the fault of the author. And honestly, in most cases those issues should be dispensed with by the mod awarding the story. Sometimes the spacing is skewed in poems by the system and I would not withhold an award for such an issue.
I try to thank everyone that comment on my stories. The folks that are on my friends list definitely get a thank you post, those that are not receive a PM. Once I sent a thank you via PM and was asked not to contact them again, so it really depends on the person. For those that only score, a tend to not bother because they may be like the other person and not want to be contacted.
Yes. You can add it at any time. You'll want to send the file to Gav.
We encourage all stories be submitted in English. In your case, it is difficult to engage in a different language in dialogue. Perhaps you can revisit the piece and explain to the reader what was said after it was delivered in Italian or simply or omit that part.
This thread is the reason why I'll only ask those that I'm am closest to to review my stories. They understand how much I appreciate their efforts and don't require that I acknowledge them publicly. I appreciate their support of my writing and I do the same for them.
Can we change the order of the listing that pops up when you click on a tag go from newest to oldest instead of the way it is now. I was looking for a recent story that had a certain tag and something from 2009 popped first. Please?
Stellar stories/poems list. This is why I consider her one of the best poets to grace the Lush cyber-pages.
