Comments That Make Your Day

I just read through much of this thread, and wanted to contribute my favorites. I don't seem to get a lot of comments, at least not as many as some others, but I do find the ones I do receive can make my day.
I mostly write in series, and all these in this post are from what I see as my personal best, Acting 101.
Chapter 2
Oh, Christ! The last half of this story was simply sublime. Seldom have I read here the true passion and equal awkwardness of a seminal first fuck.
Commenter then followed that with a ton of actually valid and useful criticism, which is always wonderful too.

Chapter 3
A score of 8.84 (as of this reading) and no comments? How rare!
I guess your readers are all too semi-comatose from pseudo-sexual exhaustion.


Keep it coming!
Disclaimer: I did not in fact have a score of 8.84...

Chapter 4
This series is amazing! One thing I noticed is that you've described Meredith's appearance in detail at this point but not so much for Steff.. I don't think I properly understood what her hair looked like until you said it was a bob in this one. Anyway keep it up!
I love it when at least one commenter notices something subtle that I've been doing intentionally through the whole series.

Chapters 10-12 (The Finale)
Having discovered you, I'm going through your stories like a stoner goes through butter slathered popcorn.
Simply gratifying.
Loved it, brilliant; I'm now going to read all your other stories. I wish I could give it 10 stars. It cries out for a sequel when Meredith is introduced to Mother!
Thank you, it also gave me the best laugh I've had for ages in the son/dad camping trip.
The camping trip references Chapter 9, which I took a big risk on and included with no sex. I love that it was well-received.
 
Another nice comment yesterday on Homeless: :)

10 stars is close. Julie actually married Royce, when he took her off the street. It didn't hurt that Emma fell in love with her daddy then either. As Beth whispered to her, "around June", she already knew she was a wife. Please write more, wonderful stories!
 
I get very few comments, over half of my stories have none at all or a single comment. I beat the Summer Lovin deadline by about eight hours, and Laurel was incredibly fast and posted Charlotte's Free Weekend within barely 24 hours. Definitely no complaints on that. The voting has been... uh... mixed. But that's for a different thread.

Here, I've received a single comment. But, thank you, Anonymouse. At least for this reader, I seem to have achieved what was, more or less, my goal.

Completely and utterly ridiculous. And yet, written well enough that I read the whole thing, and enjoyed it. Thank you.
 
I was well and truly blown away this morning when I opened my Lit email to find somebody wanting to know if I'd ever published my poetry, saying they'd be willing to buy. Most sadly, I had to turn him down, but you'll be able to tell it's me today, the Cheshire Cat smile drifting through the city.
 
My story Educating Laura: Anal Time is kinda slow to start and includes more experimentation than your average Anal reader can cope with, so it's not scored well.

So I wasn't expecting praise from our friend Anonymous.

Which made me really appreciate this today: "Never felt so well understood in the way I tend to approach all things sexual. Very nerdy, being turned on by experimentation, by doing naughty stuff, turned on by turning on... just everything the author of this masterpiece describes, maybe (and that's really just maybe) with the exception of pain. Thanks a bunch, I'm definitely gonna read more of your writing!"

I know I write for a slightly niche audience, so good to know I'm reaching them.
 
I got this one this morning on "Homeless." It's my new favourite.

I will not read anymore of your stories. I spend too much time with tears in my eyes. Time for me to register with Literotica so you can be in my first five favorites!"

It just made my day!

Post your comments when a fan makes your day. :D
I am always thankful for the positive messages I receive, but one of my favorites is still from an anonymous reader, “You are one of my favorites on Lit. No one else writes with that kind of Pulp Fiction style you do!”

To this day, I still don’t know exactly what about my writing led the reader to say that, but it has stuck with me since.
 
I had a comment today from someone who intends to complain about a story that has been posted for 18 years. Good luck with that.
 
I received a nice comment today on one of my stories: "You could feel the passion they had for each other. " If I've made the reader feel that way, then I feel like I've done something right.

On the other hand, I've also received these two separate comments from anonymous readers recently:

"cunt"

"Utter trash."

It's a bit of a roller coaster, this comment thing.

It's not nice of those last two commenters to just introduce themselves and then not comment.
 
I've lost all patients with rude comments. From this point, well, a month back, rude gets a delete.
 
I liked this because the commenter put a lot of thought into it after reading the whole damned book:
Interesting story. Atleast the plot was good but I have come to dislike almost every character. They all feel so superficial. It felt like almost everyones only true emotion was lust or atleast it was the only emotion that was displayed. Wich makes kinda sense on an erotica site but at the same time makes a story empty. Highlighted was the fact in the parts with Laurens PoV. Her encounter with Jen for example, it was mentioned for a moment but forgotten in the next. Or her encounter with Frank, she felt some pain for a friend but it was forgotten the next moment. That she only saw him for the first time in the conference room was already an indicator how much she really felt after she knew that Jakob was behind is torturous journey or that she didnt even asked how he was doing after the conference. The other characters displayed similar behaviour and it didnt help to engage with the story. 4*
I guess I wonder which character the commenter didn't dislike ("almost").

I really like this comment, which seems to get to the heart of many of my stories:

"I love the way you can portray sexy kinky fun between people that's caring without needing to be romantic."

They added, "I loved Laura in Smoking Hot, and I'm becoming very fond of Richie as well."

Ooh! Someone who's read multiple stories of mine including a whole book! Though I'm not sure becoming fond of Richie is a good idea - he's a self-centred arse a lot of the time...

I mean, you're not wrong, Richie is an arse-mongle, but still, it's a fun read. I go back to it to read for a smile.

Though I don't know if that's what your commenter meant, you can like a character as a character, even if you hate them as a person.

Arse-mongle is a new one on me! I first read that as arse-monger and figured he's not exactly selling anyone else's arse... yet. (Down, damn plot bunny!)

Which story of his do you mean? Educating Laura, Undergrad Experiments, or I Say Ass (Again/Brighton)? More in the (long, very slow) pipeline...

Very true. Richie's a decent guy on the whole, when he's not being an obnoxious git either accidentally or on purpose. He acquires a few social skills between the start of college and being a postdoc 8 years later, mostly by treating women as people and getting told by them when he's being too much of an arse.
 
Sweet comment today on Juxtapositions:

“That was so gorgeous. Hot but also so so tender. A happy, rare find on a site like this :D
 
Really enjoyed the time we got to spend with bubbles, and looking forward to whatever messed up gremlins you dream up next.
Hmm... Well, the hinted at follow-up suggests that Bubbles is lost in a crystal cavern... Should I take "gremlins" seriously? :p
