Busy day ahead tomorrow, so here's the next piece:

And here's another - in fact, the LAST of our back catalogue. Well, okay, there are a couple of others, but seeing as they're the first acts of multi-page stories, I figured I'd not post them here while they're incomplete.



Beyond that, well.. if you guys want to come over and visit the page or sign up, feel free.

We're rpesently updating with a new strip every fortnight. As and when more material arrives in our inbox, we may look at posting more frequently.

Enjoy!

The thread has kind of moved on now so this might be a bit out of place, but I can remember calling someone out on the egroup before for commenting on a fanfic (not mine) only to say it had a lot of typos. It might have been a fair point, but when the writer thinks 'oooh, someone has replied to my story' and then there is no comment beyond a vague criticism it is annoying. I don't know what the case was with the incident being talked about in this thread, but if the comment was purely 'that's not how you spell abandoned' I'd have been pissed off too. Not sure I would have moved to have the comment deleted though.
For what it's worth the person who did the typos only comment wasn't really that active a member, and he did claim his post was 'misunderstood'. Maybe he was trying to make a broader point about taking five minutes to reread something before you post it.
Another occurence was a comicbook page that me and Garry Bodsworth did that was very text heavy. All of the comments it recieved were that it was text heavy. And the thing is, as a writer, I wasn't really looking for a debate about the comicstrip format and the appropriate number of words, I wanted comment on characterisation, plot, the dynamics between characters and so on. So, I can also understand being annoyed recieving comments that say 'I hate narrative captions in comics'.

It's interesting, on the one hand, you can't control or expect to control the feedback you recieve, but then if you know there are creative and enthusiastic people out there who want to be involved in your project but you know the 'wrong' type of criticism will negatively affect them and make them not want to contribute, should you take steps to eliminate that criticsism? Never really thought about that before.

edit - can't find spell check, there might be a load of typos in this!
