So, I wrote a story for the [livejournal.com profile] kakairu_fest winter exchange. I did my best. It inspired me to write a story for Nanowrimo in fact! (which I'm still not finished with, although I did meet the 50,000 word minimum) But did [livejournal.com profile] bgreenwivy thank me for it? No, she did not.

Normally I don't like to bitch about things, but that's just plain rude. Maybe the story wasn't quite what she wanted, but I did my best, and it would have been nice to have a polite thank you. This was my first time doing a fic exchange, and it kinda sucks that I didn't get a thank you.

I gave it a couple weeks because hey, holidays. But now I'm starting to get a little pissed.

Wow, that really sucks. It's extremely uncool not to comment on something you received in an exchange. :(

Her own entry has some mistakes in it, despite a comment about having a beta. Maybe she's new to this whole thing? It would be awful if she was simply ungrateful.

Yeah, someone on JournalFen suggested I give her a poke, but I think I'm going to wait until this cold is over and I am more rational.
