Do you have trouble writing "good comments" on fanfic? Do you worry that your comment isn't interesting enough, not long enough, not intellectual enough, or doesn't give enough of a ✨clever review✨ of exactly what you liked about the writing? Does that stop you from commenting?

Moral of story: Sure, please write something eloquent and poetic and beautiful if you want to do that, or write an essay responding to every paragraph of the fic one by one if that's your jam, that'll all be very appreciated, but if you can't word, just dump a keysmash or stack of emoji in there, yeah? Because we'll love and cherish that just as much.
