Read

I'm finding myself writing more and more journals without thumbnails, and that's saddening. Unfortunately, sometimes one does not have the time and other things pop up. I'd like to explain something as people seem to not believe my sincerity in fav-ing.

Alright, if you go to my page, you will see that I am a member of 50+ groups. There are only about two or three of those groups I don't watch. If you go to my favorites, you'll see that there are 400+ pages. Daily, I receive around 100-300 deviations in my inbox and I read every single one of them. I've only been on this site for about 4-5 months, so you'd think I'm just doing that fav and run thing, yes? Well, I'm not. If any of you who have received a favorite from me without a watch or a comment, I sincerely did read what you wrote (okay, so some of you may have been favorited for a drawing, but the majority is literature). I'm an aspiring writer, and so I understand that it's important to know that what you have has sincerely been read, and not just a cry for attention from a fav whore. I have a lot of time on my hands, and I check dA all the time so it's really easy for me to read all of your deviations without being overwhelmed. I'd just like to clear it up that yes, I do read everything I favorite, and if you have any questions, concerns, or accusations you'd like to make, feel free to leave a comment.

I don't understand when people stopped being content with just a little message that easily says someone liked your work. I mean, every favorite I get gives me the same joy a comment or a watch does.

Also, in case you're wondering why you might have received several favorites from me in quick succession, what I do is I read the deviations first and then favorite by dragging the thumbnails.
