MTYG

[pensnest]

I hope those among you with an interest, however fading, in popslash are reading the current crop of MTYG stories. No, there aren't many, but there are some real crackers among them which deserve your love! I think MTYG always brings out the best in writers.Even if you didn't sign up for the challenge you can get a feedback account with no pain. For those of us who went through the traditional SeSa angst to get our stories done, happy feedback is the best reward!

Incidentally, it's probably getting easier to guess who wrote what. If you want to hazard a guess or two, I shall put posts up on the MTYG discuss communities at once.

You have been a most reliable pinch-hitter, I know!

It's a little strange this year - nobody seems to be *reading* the stories! At least, nobody seems to be reading and sending feedback. It's unnerving.

I'm rather glad to know it's not just me (or my story, heh), because I did find it a little unnerving too. I will admit to having only read a few stories myself, but I'm usually reminded to visit the site by some lovely feedback messages, but alas. ;)

It does baffle me a bit to find that people who take the trouble to participate then don't necessarily follow through by reading the stories. I could understand it when popslash was flourishing and DWNOGA had 200 stories—obviously, you'd read by pairing and concentrate on the pairings you liked, and maybe follow a few recs. But now?

Admittedly I have been reading any and all pairings (even JuC!) for a while now, and that isn't true for everybody. On reflection, I'm not sure what pairings have been written this year, I must check! Let's hope everybody has the day off on New Year's Day, and is not too hungover to devour the stories!
