I don't expect most of the readers to be professional writers, reviewers, or critics, but I'd still like to know if they responded favorably to something I've written, or found it offensive or worthless. Skills needed - ability to read... you have that skill! (-: At other writing sites, I've seen a lot more feedback, and much of it was actually beneficial! Again, it's just my opinion. PS - especially with poetry, I have to admit that often "I just didn't get it." But, by reading assorted comments, I gained insights through other people's interpretations. It becomes a much richer learning experience.
