I have to admit conversations concerning concrit make me a bit jumpy. I guess I have a fear that some day, providing concrit will be required of all who want to enjoy the fan products of others.
Outside of fandom, I am constantly giving people feedback on how to write, how to read, how to teach, how to present. This is a major part of my job, and I accept this even though it's exhausting, tedious, and often thankless. Grading is really the most onerous part of my job.
Fandom, in contrast, is my escape. The moment it begins to resemble my job, it stops being my outlet and instead becomes yet another obligation.
I am deeply appreciative of those who are open to giving concrit, really deep and useful concrit to others, but I am thankful that I can opt out.
