TDD (or not TDD).
Sep. 12th, 2006 02:07 pmI posted a short note about this on the NML, but didn't want to go on at length about it there.
Chapter XXII of "Dusk" is indeed no longer on ff.net, though it's confusing because it already has several reviews. I pulled it just a couple of days after I put it up.
It has nothing to do with the fic itself; it has nothing to do with my readers. Had this been any other fic I would've done the same. Right now, while I'm still emotionally wobbly, concrit of any kind is going to hit me hard. Although getting positive feedback would cheer me up immensely, it just didn't seem fair for me to put up a new chapter and expect only praise. Not that people concrit often; not that anyone has been less than unfailingly polite whenever offering it. But it's the...principle of the thing, you know?
