I've been going through my inboxes at deviant, and, well, I'm ashamed at how terrible I am at responding to comments. I know I'm spotty at best here, but over there... There were comments that were as old as my account! How unforgivable is that? I have responded to all but one review on my
averygoodun account, and everything on my
ecsart account, with a generous helping of apologies around, but how many people have I alienated by being so horribly rude?
*sigh*
While I was doing this exercise in humility, I think I might have figured out part of
why I do have such a horrible, horrible record for answering comments, especially those left for my artwork: words don't come easily when I'm emotional. And comments, especially the nice comments, on my artwork, make me very emotional. "Thank you" just seems so very, very inadequate.
So, if I'm a little hesitant responding to a review you've left, I apologize and ask for your patience. I can't promise I'll reply to everything, and I sincerely doubt I'll be going through LJ and catching up here, but please do know that your comments are appreciated very mcuh. Very much, indeed.
