I got a treat with nothing in the notes to suggest it was for me (as opposed to for the fandom/for the author's own enjoyment), but I commented like it was anyway, just in case. So if this is me, no hard feelings! A gift for the fandom is still just as much of a gift :)

Just as a data point, coalie, I don't tend to leave author's notes directed at the recip. Rarely, at best. Anything I want to say typically gets said in my reply to their comment later. If it's tagged to you and on your gift page, just assume it was written for you!

I wrote you an entire fic. That's enough interaction for now.

I only add notes when there's something people should know or keep in mind about the story before reading it. That's rarely the case.

I usually leave something in the notes thanking the recip for the prompts but this year I was sick and sleep-deprived and just did the minimum for tags and summary and notes. I really do want to thank this recip for introducing me to the fandom so maybe I'll write something for NYR.

You can always say that in reply to their comment, too.
