Quixotic undertakings are my passion in life!

Fellow writers of fic: born out of a discussion on the Doctor Who anonmeme, I have created concrit_anon, an anonymity-optional community for posting fictional works and receiving constructive criticism. The aim is for users to post their fic, either anonymous or otherwise, and other readers can post their concrit, again either anonymously or under the username of their choice.

Right now I'm in the early stages, deciding if this is an idea that's going to work, or a giant pain in the ass I'm going to end up regretting. I have a post up on the comm where you can comment and let me know which side you're placing your bets on. Do stop on by, even if it's just to jeer at me (anonymously, hopefully) or to say hello and help me feel I haven't wasted the last couple hours of my life.

Ta!

Thanks, doll! And back atcha: I love reviewing the work of writers I trust. (And by trust I mean...you know, people who I actually enjoy reading! It gets too awkward when you just don't enjoy someone's writing at all.)

While I know I'll definitely make use of the comm, should it take off, I've not created it to fill a need for myself; I'm lucky enough that I have people I could go to if I wanted honest criticism. (Adding you that list!)

I want it to be a place people can use. It's hard for a lot of people to ask for and actually receive constructive criticism, as well as for people to give it. At least if there's a comm dedicated to concrit, people will know what's expected: to give and receive honest criticism!

At least that's the plan. In any case, I'm having fun setting things up. :P
