Comments That Make Your Day

[Djmac1031]

I just got this comment to my latest story, Mrs Pillsbury At The Grocery Store, published earlier today:

"FUCK! That. Was. Hot! I have a Hotwife and I just told her what I read - I would LOVE to get that text from her!"


I enjoy getting a comment like this because a) it's nice to know the reader was pleased and b) I have no personal experience with hot wives. Almost everything I write is made up. It's gratifying because it fortifies my conviction that personal experience should NOT be a limit on what an author writes. The imagination is limitless.

Been meaning to get to that story. I'll work on that soon.

I received this anonymous comment about the six-part series entitled Rescuing a Snow Angel. It was soul-bearing. Some elements are accurate, reflecting what happened to the person the main character is based upon. The war elements are factual, as is the educational background but like most lit stories, the rest is straight-up fiction. The scores range from 4.5 to 4.78.

"YOUR CREATIVITY IS EXCELLENT ! Setting up a number of possibilities, addressing them, then pulling it all together. This series created a number of questions / introspection which was and is good.

THANK YOU !"

Comments like these bring joy to my efforts to tell stories that entertain.

That's the best, isn't it? To have someone compliment you on your creativity, and to express gratitude for it.

A great comment on my story 'A Stormi Night' - https://literotica.com/s/a-stormi-night

Here’s my take on your story. There’s nothing wrong with it. I enjoyed the build up to Stormi’s arrival. It sounded real. Despite the cigarettes, the following scenes and dialogue felt authentic. The sexual references at the end was just the right dosage to make this the perfect introduction (a teaser) to a sequel or second chapter.

Got this doozy today. It's not positive, but it's useful as a reminder that one shouldn't put too much stock in comments:

Hardy in story line at all the writing again felt forced and there really wasn't any sex involved so I really wouldn't say it was incest when it was just hands used I'm starting to think all your stories is going to feel forced which is not good if you ever hope to keep writing be glad you just started not too many years ago and writing in a word that people are scared to say how they really feel about your stories well I'm different I'm not scared ill be honest with you on your stories every time and sometimes the truth hurts but it is what it is like I said thus far your stories are all forced and trashy I have read enough to know you don't know how to write a decent story even a fantasy story so you shouldn't try until you learn what it takes to write a decent story

Back to the drawing board, I guess.

God, it has to suck to get that kind of blistering criticism from e e cummings.

e e cummings on crack, I think.

mercifully conservative on the fullstop too. Considerate, given the fullstop breeding season wasn't spectacular this year and they're scarce in the market.

Come on, people. There are SEVEN capital letters in the comment. ee would be rolling in his grave...

 

[mirafrida]

You write story, and it gets not-all-that-many readers, but a few hearts and nice notes, and hovers between "hot or not" over the course of years...
and then one day a comment like this comes in and you're like "oh, THAT'S why I wrote it"

This story was beyond amazing. I can count on one hand the amount of times in my life I've felt as sexually charged up and turned on by something and this version of the ending is one of them. It sent an electric feeling to the tip of my cock that I rarely have ever felt. So well written and so interesting. The verbal humiliation was my favorite part. I can hear Sheila's voice in my head vividly as she catcalls Grace.

I wish there was more material out there of similar theme. I can't even start to try to find any porn that replicates a similar scenario. I've found myself thinking about this story for an entire week since reading it and wanting more.

There are stories around that reference eating members. The Blobfish or something like that was one. But hey, Hollywood has us beat with Jaws and other movies. It's a common trope and human fear.

BTW I should mention that vore as the main story is prohibited.

Red_Herring's comment was a reference to Silence of the Lambs.

 

[onehitwanda]

This one amused me.

Hi, I was wondering if you had time to beta read my next story. It's an IT story that's about 15K words at present. I should finish it soon and expect it to land at about 20K words or so. I'm not seeking en editor. I'm just keen for your perspective on my narrative and for any notes you might share on how I could improve characterization. Thank you for your time and consideration.

I mean, it's sweet, and I'm touched, but I've barely got enough time for the astronomical amount of shit going on in my own life.

I was responding to this line in his post. You have to have a story along the lines of eating people to get the kind comments he referenced.

Anyone else get comments like this that are merely thinly veiled references to consuming other members of your species?

 

[Candy_Kane54]

Got this one for my story Lady in Red:

That was simply lovely and deeply passionate on an entirely different level. The question of family origin was delicately dangled along the way, but when the truth was discovered, I just lost it -- no Kleenex not sufficient, needed paper towels to flow with the deep undercurrents of recognition at so many levels. Well done. Worthy of a reprise when Anna returns to enjoy her daughters' success and new home. Sigh

I've never written a story about eating people. However, many people describe the taste of red (i.e., smoked) herring the way the commenter did, so I assume he or she was making a Silence of the Lambs-style reference to eating me, a humble fish:

"Your writing has a robust, savory flavor with a rich dose of umami and smoke. I found I enjoyed it more while drinking a crisp glass of Chenin Blanc."

I'm also told by humans that Chenin Blanc pairs well with my cooked flesh. Disgusting.

 

[gordo12]

There is no lack of disgusting when it comes to commenters.

Are things really that busy on Bishop Rock?

On Overcoming Burnout, my superhero romance for Geek Pride:

Damn, NoTalentHack! Is there a genre you CAN'T write? Another fine effort.

I love this 'Forrest Gump' comment on my series Breeding Bull:

This story has to be continued. That's all I am going to say about it.

 

[joy_of_cooking]

Here's one from @MediocreAuthor on "Asked and Answered":

this story did a fantastic job of presenting (what seemed to me to be) REAL PEOPLE...Very believable, and I REALLY enjoyed it. Even while they were talking about kinks that I don't share, I BELIEVED that they felt passionately about them

I'm struggling a bit with the next chapter and sometimes I come back and read this comment for motivation.

Nothing like criticism on writing from someone who doesn't even know what punctuation is.

 

[SimonDoom]

Yes, it's a lack of time that prevents us from helping others while we spend hours every day on the forum...pfft.

This one amused me.

Haha! You should hear how I described your story to @seraph_nocturne while on discord. Hang on. I'll screen cap it

I got this comment through feedback:

I only made it through the first sex scene before work closed in on me. Magnificently written. I'm not exactly a porn or erotica connoisseuse, but it was the hottest erotica I have ever read. I was in my office reading. I guess I was blushing because Caitlin, one of the paralegals was like. "Are you okay?" So I tried to look bored and said, "Yah, I'm good."

The perils of reading at work!

I love the name Caitlin.
