I know that most new authors do not even know either this or the Author's forums exist, but it seems as if this is the only place relevant to post this bitch/request.
I get 2-3 PM's a week by authors thanking me for a positive comment on his or her story. Oh, and they don't identify the story I supposedly commented on, or their username. So how am I able to comment, if even able to respond, to talk about the genesis of the characters or the story itself? Of course I also probably get one or so a month calling me pond scum or worse, as I sometimes troll the trolls. They don't identify themselves either.
All I can do is respond and ask which story it was, and hopefully open a dialogue. Not all authors are that way. I have ongoing conversations with several authors about story lines on ongoing chapters.
