Personally, I love it when people favorite my stories or put them on alert. I mean, I get really excited when people review, but my stories are posted just in case people might enjoy them. I wrote them for myself, because I got a plot bunny that refused to go away. They're posted because after the third time I read my first story, I started thinking that maybe other people might enjoy it too.

And I do love getting reviews, even though I only have three or four faithful reviewers compared to fifty-one people having put the story on alert. But, I find the alerts just as important as the reviews, in a way. Sometimes when I have writer's block, or I have to force myself to work on my WIP, I remember that I have fifty-one people waiting for update.

Anyway, what I'm trying to say here is that I think any way that readers can tell writers they like a story is equally as valid as other any other way. Readers should not feel obligated to review, even though it is nice when they do so.

I agree so much with you. If someone favourites something or gives me kudos or whatever, I'm so happy. Someone read it and liked it! Reviews are lovely, but for me it's like a bonus. I don't write to get reviews, and I don't expect everyone (or anyone) who reads my stuff to give them to me. It's nice if they do, but any other way they acknowledge my story means just as much to me.

I've grown to love the favorites, (joining AO3 kicked the disgruntled habit, because of the kudos system; I treat favs and kudos the same now) but it's the 'story alerts' that still bug the crap out of me. Mostly because the stories that are put on alert are complete.

There will be no need for you to be alerted. It's done. I will not revise it, because I've spent ages revising it already. It's complete. I promise. If you want to be alerted, select "Author Alert".
