Review for Planting Seeds

Planting Seeds

(#) Ithilwen 2006-04-23

In all fairness, the "we're doing something naughty; no we're not" is a bit overused. And the characters aren't really grounded in the Lord of the Rings universe. This could be any two people in any garden.

Oh, Pat, there are many fine drabbles out there. Read a few more of them before you decide to write them off.

Author's response

In all fairness, the tone of your reviews is a bit overused. It is a drabble. Most drabbles could be said to be about any fandom or even real life. Do you read anything for the sheer joy of reading and just say thanks? I have found this true of reading some of yours, but I just decided not to waste your time pointing it out. I do not find this kind of review useful and really do not think they are helpful. If you do not like my drabbles, perhaps you should not read them. I have yet to see anything positive in your reviews of my writing. Can you find nothing at all??? This is supposed to be "fun". It is not fun for me. Again, I question the maturity of some reviewers on this site.

And Pat? There are many good drabbles out there. She is right. But, you have to be in the right mindset to enjoy them. If you go in deciding ahead of time to dislike them, as some people seem to do, then you will not get them. I hope you will check out some of the other authors' works. Do not judge all drabbles on my obviously poor writing skills.
