how valid would you say the critiques on the crit threads are? what kind of people usually give feedback on the pieces of literature posted - are they the more educated, experienced browsers, or just the cynics?

>>	Anonymous Mon Mar 21 20:56:59 2016 No.7837580 Nobody here reads. The best of them are pathetic firebrands, who even with generous advice, are ludicrously wrong in the broad picture. That makes up about 5 of them. The rest are simply plain idiots/trolls, who should be ignored.

Cynics. Anonymity breeds them. You get the rare response that's genuine, but of all the pieces that get posted in those threads, the chance that they pick yours is pretty slim.
For book recs, I like this place, but as far as getting feedback is concerned, I'd rather stick to real life interaction, or even Reddit, over /lit/.

/lit/ feedback helped me finish my last novel. People were very friendly and encouraging and even when all they said was "is this shitposting" I was glad for the comment. You guys are the best sometimes!

>>	Anonymous Mon Mar 21 21:25:22 2016 No.7837642 is r/ocpoetry any good? I lurked there for a little bit but I honestly think the environment of /lit/ where you can just completely dismiss shit poetry is better than a policed hug factory
