Comments That Make Your Day

"Very festive. I feel like Bing Crosby would have masturbated to it himself."

I agree with that comment

 

[SamanthaBehgs]

I agree with that comment

That's because you made my day <3

 

[NoTalentHack]

The comments on Spectrums have been almost uniformly positive, which I'm grateful for. Unfortunately, the ones I'm proudest of tend to also be the most spoiler-filled. This one has a (relatively minor) spoiler, too, but it made me laugh out loud, so I'll post it here anyways.

I minored in philosophy and I never thought I would ever see anyone here write about Seale's Chinese box lol

I've been called a lot of things, but this one comes closer to my writing sometimes than any:

Fido
"I have to say Gordo12 your bonkers, but definitely original in your story telling. Another 5*+story as are most of your stories. Thank you so much for your effort. Wish I had found you before but will read the rest of your stories"

Bonkers HUH? If she only knew! I have stories so bizarre they'll never see the light of day.

 

[ColtonWrites]

You wrote that? Like.... and you let us read it for free?[snip]I was looking for a little smut earlier this week and accidentally stumbled into art!

Ok that definitely made my day

And I just kinda hope Frost was rolling over in his grave to find a better position to compete with Bing Crosby.

"Cum, he told me, parum pa pum pum... in my bum..."

On (750 Word Odyssey retelling) 'Cheating the Gods'

FUCKING GREAT!! UNBELEIVABLE!! I'm glad I took a chance and read this. Thanks for the story. It will go on my next Fav list. I struggled a little with the Homeric references, but I'm old, so a lot of them were like 'current events'. 8.9 stars, I loved it. (Could you tell?)
The BEAR When did History get so interesting?

Followed a few minutes later by:
AND YOU POSTED IT ON MY BIRTHDAY!!!! 9.7 stars, it just went up Thanks again. Made my day.
The BEAR That gets you two. Enjoy!!

On my holiday contest story, shortly after it went live I got warm, supportive comments from two of my absolute idols, @Jackie.Hikaru and @ChloeTzang

It felt like singing on stage and getting a hug from Taylor Swift and Beyonce afterwards. I happy fangirl cried so much I gave myself a headache and had to sleep it off. I was so overwhelmed my brain was just like "no, this isn't real, let's go back to sleep and see if this is the dream world."

okay, so @Actingup and I wrote a Loving Wives story about loss and estrangement and the hope of reconciliation through emotional vulnerability, It Just Ain't Going To Happen. It published overnight, tentatively it seems to be doing well, relatively speaking. But these comments, specifically, have me absolutely buzzed.

I have no idea how to rate this story. I liked it and disliked it. It was well written and captivating. I wanted to bitch slap the two women and curse good old dad. This was fiction, yet I found myself deeply supporting Dad. Does that make me a male chauvinist? DUNNO. What a mismatch of a relationship. I'm not sure all that touchy-feelie mumbo-jumbo would save the day, but it worked well in this tome. Well done. I'll keep my eye out for more of your work. Label me angry and confused.

I gave it 4 stars because I don't know if I liked it or not. It was well written so that got you a 4. I didn't deduct 1 for messing with my head. I may come back and change it to a 3 or 5. Not nice! Child abuse! LOL

The Joy of the story is in the little details. There is an emotional reflection in the thoughts and dialog which propels the story versus the all too often telling of events without depth. The depth helps me reflect on events and interactions within my own life.

Are we prompting some LW readers reflect on and confront their own feelings and preconceptions?? Presumably there will be a lot of anonymous comments coming down the pipe that haven't been approved yet, who knows what they will have to say... but these three gentlemen have absolutely made my day

Sounds like I need to go read that

Got a wonderful comment this morning on my Winter Holidays story, thought I’d share.


Pretty sure bothersome is supposed to be both, ducking Autocorrect. . I do love this comment, though. It’s nice when someone tells you that you accomplished your goal with a story.

"Just lovely. The romance between them was beautifully handled - their surprise, the attraction, the exploration, and eventual realisation of their feelings. You really made us feel for the two characters and hope that parents and friends would not spoil their party. Can't say enough nice things about this story - heart warming and beautiful. Thank you."

From Santa's Elves, one of my holiday stories this year. Nice to see such a positive response for a story I labored hours and hours over.

New this afternoon on Fido

"An honest to God breathe of fresh air, and a unique POV as well. I'd give it more stars if I could"

We've now had a 'holy crap!' magnitude of moderated comments come through. Some of them are keen to tell us about their views on abortion, some to tell us we're too highfalutin, or that we couldn't possibly be from Michigan (which in my case is certainly true), that the story is too predictable, too moralistic, that the female MC is a shrew, the daughter extremely annoying, and so on. But most of the comments are very nice. This one though... this made me laugh. It starts off so nicely and then....

The story is incredibly well written. The author (sic) beautifully personified each character and made each of their struggles realistic. Those are the only positives that I can attribute. Michelle is a full on narcissistic bitch and is training her daughter to follow in her footsteps. Brad is afraid of being called upon to take any responsibility for his family and choices. They aren't flawed characters struggling to overcome adversity, they're a bunch sociopaths that are destined to be alone because they lack empathy and compassion.

or that we couldn't possibly be from Michigan (which in my case is certainly true)

I have never shoveled snow shirtless but I have certainly shoveled coatless, so I politely reject that criticism

Absolutely, positively, strumtrulescent. You have made my day. Like Brad, I don't cry very often, but the tears of joy flowed as I read this remarkable story. Thank you both. It was truly incredible. 5 Stars forever.

All the best,

Dave

This one made me tear up, though

 

[AG31]

I can't believe I didn't post this here. It's far and away the most rewarding and helpful comment I've ever gotten. @MillieDynamite made it for The Recurrence.

"I believe there is something deeper in this story than just the shock factor,"

This comment appeared on Homeless yesterday. It's certainly been the week for
different comments:

"Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares. -- Hebrews 13:2

You've done it. Caught lightning in a bottle. This story is the kingdom, the power, and the glory of writing. I need to stop typing before I fry my goddamn keyboard with my tears."
