Re: Do you read fandoms you don't know?

I don't, no. I've gotten a few comments on my work from people who missed the point or didn't get what was happening because they didn't know canon at all -- I'd rather not be the one leaving those sorts of comments on other people's work.

See, if I read a story for a fandom I didn't know because of the trope, I then wouldn't leave a comment like that, because I'd assume it was my unfamiliarity and not the fault of the writer.

Eh, if I've enjoyed the story, I might as well leave a comment. If I missed the point by a mile or the writer doesn't like my comment, they can always delete it.

I'm usually under the impression that comments telling the writer what I liked about their story are welcome, even if I didn't get as much out of it as I might have with canon knowledge. I especially love it when a writer takes the opportunity to enthusiastically tell me more about their canon and sell it to me.

But honestly, I don't keep track of the comments I leave, so I probably won't notice either way, especially in Yuletide when most writers wait with their replies until after reveals.
