Another chapter posted...another chapter unread...

*sigh* By anyone. Actually, two.

I hope to heck that Lauren looks at her dang email because, if she doesn't, she's going to miss the portion of her story that I edited...and that would make not only me feel awful about it, but also kind of pointless. I did spend time on that...eh, maybe she's just busy...editing...still, a quick "thanks" or "I got it" would be nice, just know she actually did...

I just don't see the point of email if people only check them once a week. Or, in certain cases, more like once a month. If there was something really important that I needed to tell them, or needed in general, most people would find it about seven days too late...

"What? You needed to know what that paper was about that counted for 80% of our grade and you missed because you were absent and the person who tends to reply immediately to texts doesn't have that class with you? Oh. Sorry! I'm sure you can bring that grade up in time for the grading period to end in three days."

It's not like I expect people to sit there all day on their email, but, you know, once a day. Once every two days. Heck, even once a week might be nice.

*sigh* Just makes me feel like they don't care at all...I get it if you're busy and I respect that, but...all week? Two weeks? Not three seconds to shoot me a quick "hey, what's up?"

Also doesn't help my confidence in my writing at all. The point of having email connected to Fictionpress is that you can easily see when someone has updated, but, how can you if your email is never checked?

Ugh...I sound cynical. Which I am, to a point, but I'm venting...I should stop being annoying and do something useful...that isn't writing, since nobody cares.

*facepalm* I deeply apologize for my ranting and venting and I should shut up now, right?

Digressfully,
