Since I doubt I'll ever get off my ass to send any real feedback, I'll clarify what I said above and this time actually aim it where it matters, aka you: some of your stories, such as the abovementioned Straight and Low and The Marrying Kind I've enjoyed enormously, and there's no way I would've trudged through the Kiss series if I'd thought it wasn't worth it. The third part showed how much you've developed as a writer (although I had some minor disagreements about how the story was handled, but, but, this isn't the place for them), so I shouldn't have been surprised to find that some of your (obviously older) works are ...ahem... less than brilliant. ::g::
But I'll tell you a weird and scary thing. I got about twice as much feedback for that piece of utter horseshit than I did for 'The Marrying Kind'. If anyone can explain that to me, I'd be glad to hear it.
Uhh, if I can manage to read the 'piece of utter horseshit' I'll share my theories. ::g:: Unfortunately I think it's just the way of fandom: overdone emotional crap rakes in the reviews.
