No feedback AT ALL

You received a review from MaryN in March.

A word to the wise, when you review others don't ask them to review your work and don't tell them you're only leaving a review for points. If you're writing a novel, find a few writers on here with active novels. While some writers here will read and review all types of writing, those posting only poetry don't need as many points to post, so are less likely to read and review long chapters. Many writers on this site already have a group of people they reciprocate with and are hesitant to add someone new. The best way to encourage people to reciprocate is to review multiple pieces of their work and leave good quality reviews (*see my first point).

A few things to note: Your saying NOBODY has reviewed you is incorrect; you had at least one in-line review in March (PS: that's when you joined so it hasn't been 4 months as you stated). You might check their comments and your response to see if you could do something different to encourage the continuation of reviews.

Your user name might create some confusion since you haven't posted any poems.  I for one would think you were a poet looking at your name and most likely wouldn't look up your profile and/or portfolio to see if anything interested me. I review very few poems and those are generally from folks I've come to know through other genres. Perhaps I'm not the only one.

You have posted very few reviews (and no in-lines) for other writers considering the amount of time you have been a member; reviews beget reviews - good ones at least.

Your timing just might be a little off. You could have come to the forums and asked politely how you might receive more reviews and most likely you would have gotten significant response just as you did from this post which has already precipitated several reviews. Just maybe an earlier request could have lessened your frustration level considerably.

Just a few thoughts to ponder. Good luck. Take care. Vern

Well said, Linda.
