This is inspired by the "Have you emailed your favorite writer" thread.
Looking at this from the flipside, have you ever gotten feedback from your readers? If so, what was your reaction?
I got my first feedback recently; the sidebar to my "Bird Talk" piece is posted on their website, and several people left very positive comments. I don't know why, but it really felt good to read that. I felt silly for feeling so tickled about it, but I can't help it! I'm a geek, I know.
I guess that's not totally my first, as I get lots of comments on my blog. But even tho' that's "real" writing in the sense that it has a wide readership, earns me money, and has been the gateway to print and video appearances, for some reason that feedback doesn't feel as real as the ones from an article I've sold to a magazine.
