Thank you other Salt! ^ u ^ Shall I be Salt. Jr? cx I don't have much to read on that one... My muse has ran away from me.

However, I'd love it if I could get some feedback from anyone on my newest story! The prologue is still a w.i.p, but it's up!
(Please don't post on the actual thread, thank youuu.♥)

You seem like a talented writer, and I'd be glad to read some of your stories.

I have a question for all of you!

[b][size=85]Does the way someone posts make you want to read their work more? If it's organized, are you attracted to it- or does it make no difference?[/size][/b]

Yes, I'd have to say it does. It makes a bit of a difference, but nothing huge.
But yes, if something is organized, it makes me gravitate towards it.
Then again, I've always loved symmetry and simplicity.

I would say that it depends on the way that they post it, definitely. If something is clean to look at and not clumped together, all the same throughout, then I would rather read that. On the page of a regular book, we have things organized into paragraphs, so it's easy to keep track of. You can't really post like that on CS, so if a post is dressed up to where it's easier to follow, I'd much rather read that than just a clump of type with no indents or marks to show when a new person's talking.

But is a post is too dressed up, then I start to have a problem. At that point, it takes away from the writing, and that's what you want to avoid, for fear of losing readers. I think there's a good golden zone that you need to find.

Does the way someone posts make you want to read their work more? If it's organized, are you attracted to it- or does it make no difference? It makes a huge difference to me. I can never find a grammatically correct post that I like and is organized. It's either organized but poorly written, or not organized and all over the place but written correctly. I personally can't read something if it's not neat. I know that most people don't care about this. They love reading computer creations no matter what the organization, but I'm really stubborn about this. I make sure all my stories are organized, if not, that means they were probably written when I was at a younger age.

For sure. Sometimes I may not even click on the story if the title is messy or not appealing, heh. ; - ;
If a story is organized and aesthetically pleasing, I'm much more likely to give it a shot.
