Small Request About Comments
4 years ago
So, I try to keep things mostly PG in the gallery, and go out of my way to avoid using profanity in stories. Granted at this point, pretty sure the universe would explode if I actually swore it goes so far against my nature.
Anyway, I'm just asking please don't drop F bombs or other forms of profanity in the comments section of the story, even if you're being encouraging. I appreciate the comment, but like I said trying to keep things PG so I'm probably going to delete the comment if it has profanity, and possibly block someone from being able to comment if it becomes a nonstop issue.

Typically, I erase comments when
-Someone has an inappropriate or super fetishy icon, this is related to tailoring my gallery to keep a specific image. That's definitely not the case for you.
-Comment contains profanity or other inappropriate content
-Comment is is nitpicking minor details, or feeling the need to point out every grammar mistake. I know they're there. I try to fix them, but I'm one person with no beta readers or editors, can't afford to hire any, and so while I do work hard to try to fix all the grammatical mistakes or inconsistencies some are going to slip through, especially if I'm going to keep up my current output level, and I just repeated "You did this wrong. This is spelled wrong. You got that wrong." over hundreds of stories got rather grating after awhile. I'm trying, but I'm not perfect. So, these tend to get tossed into the ignore it and move on pile.
-Post feels like it's trying to be insulting, or start a fight or argument in some way, in which I go back to my ignore it and move on with my life mentality.
Ultimately, this is a thing where I'm just going to have to improve with experience. As I get more accustomed to my workload and can get through it faster, I'll be able to do more passes on stories as well as get better at spotting errors in general. That, or my income will reach a high enough level where I can hire an editor and that will lighten a lot of my load as well as having a set of fresh eyes to help spot things. I think I also have some improving to do with time management, and that I could get more work hours in a day if I was more conscious of how long certain tasks take.
There are... also some health issues that are... eating up more time out of my days than I'd like but... I'd rather keep what's going on there private.
