Best. Feedback. Ever.

I thought that your story was boring and not worthy of remembrance. Coming from a frequent fan fiction reader, I understand that you're trying, but maybe you should stop writing altogether. Better luck next time!

Jeez, why didn't one of you have the guts to tell me I should stop writing long ago? That's seven years of my life I'll never get back!

ETA: just in case it's not clear, I'm not sharing this out of outrage, but amusement. So please enjoy it like I am. :)

Lucky! Oh, I love comments like that. The pretentious 'literary' fanfic readers who so desperately want to sound like they have the right to pass judgement on a person's fiction...

Really, if they think YOUR fiction is bad, what on earth do they think of the REST of the crap that predominates fandom?

You know you're doing well in fandom when you GET comments like that, actually. Means more people are reading your stuff. Best day of my fanfiction career was discovering a thread dedicated to me on [livejournal.com profile] fanfic_hate. ^_^
