but don't like (b/c boring? frustrating?) having to interact with the feedback
I like interacting with nice feedback. It gives me the warm fuzzies. I don't like interacting with negative feedback because I do have the "Yes, but..." reflex and can't control it. I find it frustrating that I can't control it. I find it frustrating that I didn't do better on the fic in the first place. I get bored with myself for being graceless and unable to deal with it.
I bet, if you were pro writer, you'd never get in trouble by invading a fan forum or exploding all over twitter.
Idk. You physically cannot comment on people's bookmarks and that's mostly where I see this stuff. And on an anon meme people just don't care, so yeah, I don't have the point. But there have been a few times where I saw someone make an lj post with a rec, and the rec contained criticisms, and I have wanted to go "Yes, but..." So I feel like if I had to see that everywhere all the time I might totally give in to being hilariously wanky. Luckily right now people just talk about my stuff in places where it'd take way more trouble to interact with them than it's really worth.
