That's a great post!

I only leave constructive criticism if an author requests it. I leave praise if a story interests and entertains me and I stop reading and don't comment if it doesn't

I sometimes write for publication and the editing and criticism process is way harsh but makes you a better writer ... it is however not always a lot of fun.

and fanfic should be fun


So whilst I welcome concrit on my own few forrays into fanfic I would never offer it unasked to another writer .

and if it is asked for I try to make it as gentle and positive as possible

sort of " this would be even better if...."

Which is a cop-out.

But better than risking putting someone off writing

Anyway

thanks for the post

It's real food for thought.
