Haylie:
What are you talking about? My imagination is alive and well!
And I'm no J.K. Rowling in any sense! I am... Anonymous! Dun-dun-dunnnn!
Sophia:
I've been an egomaniac all along.
It always seemed to me it cluttered the thread.
"It always seemed, to me, to clutter the thread." Or, perhaps, "it always seemed (to me) to clutter the thread," might be better. *Shrugs*

See? ;p
Anyway... I prefer getting comments because they tell me how I'm doing. Captions involve writing, after all, so why should it be any different from stories? It would certainly help instill some confidence in me, for when I'm done making captions and ready to write more stories. The responses I get from the captions I make can give me an idea of whether or not it would be worth putting more effort in making stories for people to read, if it appears that my writing is acceptable and my ideas are healthy.
(Well, how else can you express their worth, if the only options available are whether to comment or not? Evidently, if someone doesn't feel the need to comment, then it wasn't worth commenting on. On the other hand, the more effort put into the comment, the more the captions are worth. In the end it's all relative, but I still hope for something that will give me an idea of whether or not I should attempt something bigger. I might have a lot of time on my hands, but I also have to put in a lot more effort than most the longer something is/gets: because I have a hard time focusing and I end up putting more energy into staying the course than actual writing.
Basically, if anyone wants to see any fiction or fan-fiction from me after I put captions behind me, I'm going to need some encouragement. ^_^; )
