who gives a rate...

You know, I try and stay under the radar. Don't want to stir up some mess. Never cause any trouble.
And I realize that not everyone all of the time will think highly of my writings. Not even some people some of the time will and or do.
And I also realize that the rating system given to us is supposed to help both reader and writer. Which I think is a very useful tool.
But how are we supposed to know what is undesirable about a certain piece if all we get are low ratings.
Yes, I got about as low as I could get on my piece today. No, my feelings were not hurt. Yes, I was a little surprised with the rating. No, it won't stop me from allowing others to continue to rate my work.
I like to see what others think.
And it made me reread that piece very closely to see if I could get at the angle of this reader. I couldn't. I don't think any writer can without feedback ~ in word not rate.
So please, if you are going to give me a very low rating ~ at least be kind and considerate enough to tell me your reasonings on the given rate. I would love to know.
Ratings are good. But comments are better.
And how am I to improve if I don't know what the person thinks?
Thank you for taking the time to read this. I really appreciate it. :)
