You, my dear, are an excellent example of the kind of person that is an absolute JOY to respond to, and you can rest assured that I would never have extended the invitation to you that I did recently otherwise. I find myself feeling very lucky to have had the opportunity to get to know you better. As I said in my rant, from time to time I find new friends from my reviewers. You are definitely one of those.
That person - there are less diplomatic ways that I could lable her, but that accomplishes nothing positive for either of us - on LOTRFF actually had the unmitigated gall to write back and say "I didn't mean that as a negative review. Forgive me if I upset you."
Yeah. Right. As if that changes anything. The kind of commentary she gave me as a so-called "review" would have been better send in private email, AFAIC - and I'm on enough other archives that I'm truly not that hard to chase down. I've been looking for a reason to cut down on the number of archives I have to post to on weekends. This gives me a good (to me) excuse to drop LOTRFF. I'm also about ready to ditch OSA as well.
And be careful what you wish for. I now have you on a very short list of folks whom I might use as betas for things written for challenges that I can't necessarily post to LC or HoF.
