I reply usually within a week, but it's just something like "Thanks for letting me know you liked my shit."
No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket
I, if I ever got any feedback, would reply to it sprightly.
But I don't, because I am not the type of person who finishes things, or shit.

I always reply, though I feel like Sally Field going "You like me! You really, really like me!"

I honestly don't know how to keep up with feedback. I get overwhelmed. Plus I always feel this need to not make it a rote "Thank you. I appreciate the feedback." response.

I've never found myself with the problem of having to "keep up" with feedback. Must be nice.

Thrive to spite them
Occasionally I'll get some feedback on the Smallville stories. Apparently either no likes the jossverse stuff or they aren't sending me anything.

What are the standard LotR lists? I'm thinking I should throw my Aragorn/Eowyn snippet out into the cold, cruel world.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore
I don't think I've ever gotten email feedback. I have one story up on FF.net that got two comments (one was from Fay, thanks Fay!) but I haven't really written enough to get feedback.
