So, I got 2 (sympathy)reads out of nowhere after posting here last time.
Reinvigorated, I then gave 4 fairly involved critiques. Then got 2 more. So, return rate on critiques remains at 50. Spinning the wheel on more sympathy reads GO!

Very interesting experiment, and I am glad you conducted it. I was disappointed in feedback participation during round 2 of short story, especially in return reads and found a somewhat similar, though improved trend during micro. I've taken to reading the stories of those who leave feedback on others stories. If a writer left feedback in one place they are more likely to leave feedback in another is my thinking. It also allows me to more randomly select stories. I often don't know what genre or prompt I will land on that way and I kind of like the surprise of that. It's almost the reverse of the competition but for reading.
Thank you for sharing your experience. Hopefully it will spur some sharing and quality feedback all around. |
