Nice points and you are right, but to be here non-stop requires lots of time, which sometimes I don't have that's why is hard for me to keep up with writing and reviewing all the times.

Thank you Iza. I understand. Writing on this site is extremely time consuming which is likely why so many on this site are older retired people with a lot of time on their hands. Keep writing when you cam find the time.

Comment from Mrs. KT
Hello, Beth,
I've been reading a number of advice articles this morning regarding how to navigate FanStory.
First of all, I am so relived you referred to newcomers as "new writers," rather than "newbies," which I find demeaning.
Secondly, the following paragraph really resonated with me:
You may go further up on the rating scale by the sheer volumn (volume) of the work you put out, which has nothing to do with the quality or length of your work, but personally I think it is better to be further down on the ratings and post work you can take pride in writing.
Wonderful and sound advice and also very perceptive.
Thank you for sharing!
