I am totally fine not being on Tumblr. And being kind of irritated by it, while not wishing anyone else to feel obligated to be irritated by it.
Dana is me. (While not actually being me, since I think we have established that I am not her sockpuppet.)
I hate to see writers write to the readership, because the readership is notoriously fickle. It leads you off into answering the feedback instead of following the story's own logic.
While I logically agree, I have a story (it's mine mine mine kinda mine) that ended up being exactly that because of two peoples' feedback and it's (for me) the happiest story ever. I reread it all of the time.
The author probably didn't follow the story exactly but she made two people insanely happy. She wrote our story, perhaps not the original story. Then again, I don't think she was writing for other feedback or recs by the end. So if you're writing to be true to a story's vision, no. But if you are writing to make certain people happy and don't as much about who else reads it, it's not the worst.
Which is entirely not the point when we're talking about feedback and recs and how to get more people reading and appreciating your work.
WHAT. Oh good grief, how ridiculous can you get?
It's the internet. Do you really want to ask that question?

Remember to type it directly in the SMS box, not in the note function on my phone?
That was totally a hint, wasn't it?

I know what story this is, and I reread it all the time, too. Just last week, as a matter of fact.
and I reread it all the time, too.
Given that you and I were the target audience? It's nice that we reread it a LOT.
I wonder (kinda suddenly) what a childbearing ass looks like. No, that's not an invitation to link me to a picture of a pregnant donkey (or Jenny McCarthy). I'm just wondering what, in MPREG, are the equivalent of childbearing hips. Or are we ripping it out of the front, or extracting it from his soul?
Eggs come out of the butt, though, right?
Eggs come out of a cloaca, which is the bird's orifice for everything that comes out and goes in the rear parts, so yes, in a sense, eggs come out the butt. I don't think that can be reasonably extrapolated to humans or humanoids, but reason may have nothing to do with an MPREG story.
MPREG always makes me think of that one storyline in the Constantine comics. Eww.
I wasn't thinking about bird eggs. I wanted to know about MPREG eggs. Where do they tend to come out of, in general MPREG terms? Caesarian? Butt birth? Would a guy need a childbearing ass in order to lay one?
