Readers' Poll

[glassdarkly]

Hi everyone. Will be posting another chapter in a moment but in the meantime, I thought I'd put up that poll I mentioned doing, to check the status of the many people friended to this LJ who haven't commented. I've tried to keep the questions as neutral as possible. Hope I succeeded.

[Poll #903979]

Comments

[sueworld2003.livejournal.com]

Even though this poll didn't really apply to me, I filled it out anyway just so I could see the answers!

Signed in the other LJ.

You're the first one, Sue.

I told you that I wasn't sure how I felt after I read the first part. I've talked to Kitty quite a bit about the story since she's following it and intend to dip in at a later time. I think part of my problem was you launched it when I was about to do Noel, so I had really no time for reading much of anything. I was reading everything there every day.

Anyway, I'm completely behind and I'm probably not very hip, but I'm going to probably splash here again, perhaps when you've just about closed up shop.

Are a lot of people reading and not commenting? Because of course when I read I always comment, so that won't be the case for me. And in a weird way I'm following it a little since Kitty is following it.

Uh... I think I will have to choose the third option but with a little change: I am reading and enjoying but not commenting...on all the chapters.

And I skip those parts I told you about last time :)

I too chose the third one with a little change. I am reading and enjoying the story I just don't comment on every chapter.

Hi, Deborah!

I didn't respond to the poll because, of course, I'm both reading and commenting, although not on every chapter. But I'd be very interested to know whether there are a lot of lurkers reading and not commenting.

Is there any chance you could post the poll results for everyone to see?

Hi, I actually saving it. We're having some really hot, 'stay in the house' days coming up and I'm going to read it in big chunks.

[deborahw37.livejournal.com]

Guilty! I'm reading ( though I skipped a few bits having read the warnings) I'm enjoying , and increasingly intrigued ,but I'm sort of saving comments for the end , this is naughty!

[rainkatt.livejournal.com]

Everything I checked is partly true--I'm only as far as I got when I commented to you over the weekend; I read up to there (with already-mentioned caveats) without commenting; will probably read more chapters first, before I comment again. But maybe not.

I am, as I said, enjoying the quality of writing a LOT.

[sufie58.livejournal.com]

I'm reading and enjoying and look forward to your updates. Love that you post chapters almost daily. I intend to comment but was going to wait until the end - hope that's ok?

Hi, RL is keeping me very busy lately, but I have always intended to comment on this story I'm reading it whenever it comes up and I haven't commented yet, I'm a bad bad girl. But considering I've been moving from NJ to FL, I've been kept hopping. That's also the reason that I haven' been able to read the last couple of chapters. I really am enjoying this fic, you manage to push all of my buttons. I don't comment very often, I'm a lurker at heart. I'll try and make it a point to comment more often.

[kaysm95.livejournal.com]

Hey, just want you to know that I'm reading and REALLY enjoying (well, I was. The last week has been so busy that I'm about 3 entries behind, but I'm working on it!). I just tend to not comment until the end of a story. Sorry about that! But don't worry - it's great so far!

[kitty-poker1.livejournal.com]

I don't think I've missed yet. *smug* I've probably just jinxed something or other. *meep*

[cowboyguy.livejournal.com]

Y'know, I don't know what's wrong with me, but I honestly forget to comment half the time... Maybe it's all those years of reading stuff on fanfiction.net, and I never commented then... I dunno. ^_^
But really, what I wanted to say is, I'm still reading the story, and I'm still loving it, and what'll probably happen is I'll give you one HUGE comment at the end of the story... But I'll try to break the habit and comment more in the future. ^_^

[uncouthbrkit.livejournal.com]

I did the poll, mainly because I have major guilt about not commenting as often as I want to. Problem is sometimes don't get the chance to read - then beyond the warm glow of enjoying three or four posts consecutively there's also the fact that commenting on the older posts seems somewhat superfluous. Basically I'm reading every single syllable and am starting to feel quite resentful about the reading that has to be delayed to another day, just goes to prove that this story is addictive and should carry a government health warning.

[nightlifeonly.livejournal.com]

I started reading and enjoyed it really but than i had a break because of Christmas and when I came back I stumbled across lit-gal's *Second Verse* and between reading that, sleeping and working I hadn't time for anything else. It's also difficult for me to write comments, because I'm not very good in English writing I always think I make too many mistakes, but I promise when I start reading your fic again then I will commenting as before

[kseenaa.livejournal.com]

Well, since I am reading everything and commenting to, I guess it doesn't apply for me. ;-)

[thismaz.livejournal.com]

When I asked to see this story, I said I was having trouble keeping up with reading, because November and December were, like, manic. You said, don't worry, each part is short. *Laughs* Each part may be short, but you post them so fast, the whole story has got away from me. Here we are at, basically, 70 chapters and I haven't managed to read any of them. I will get to it, once RL slows down a little bit. *sighs and hopes*

Could you friend me?

[justanapple.livejournal.com]

Hi,
I adored your Furnitureverse; would you mind friending me so I can read Coming of Age? I read Furnitureverse when I was Pissedotter but I deleted that journal to stop me spending so much time on the web. Here I am back again as justanapple - apparently I can 'resist anything except temptation!' Very excited to see you have another series.

[kudagirl.livejournal.com]

Can't do the poll because I am reading and commenting on most of the chapters. Love the story.

[spikesjojo.livejournal.com]

My access was denied - and I really do want to read it. Help! Sorry - very newbie here - pretend you are explaining to a Luddite, and you won't be far off!
