Should I Stop Writing Reviews on Triond Writers?
A valid question. A temporary lapse of weakness on my part…
I have written many reviews on different Triond writers. These reviews are technically tributes to fellow Triond writers in hopes of encouraging them and increasing their views. Also, in every review I mean what I say.
Should I stop creating these reviews? Has it gotten to the point where my reviews are worthless and boring? Especially since I don’t dish out any criticism, constructive or destructive?
I like writing these reviews. I mean what I say in these reviews and it also gives me something to write about once a week. Is this a bad thing?
I have received some negative comments on some of the reviews I have done in the past. For the most part, I ignore these unless they are of great value. I can take constructive criticism and I welcome it openly in order to better my craft.
Are the reviews I write of Triond writers a waste of time? Please tell me in a comment below what you feel about the reviews, or I should say the tributes I write.
Now I will post a Youtube video that I do not own anything of and am just promoting it. Enjoy!

Negative people are all around us and no matter what good you do or how good you do it, they will always have something negative to say about it. I enjoy what you have to say about some people and through your reviews have been able to know some writers I didn’t know.

I don’t think it’s a waste of time, they’re interesting to read and lend a helping hand to fellow writers

I believe that many writers here at triond find such things as your reviews invaluable, because it lets them see how at least one relatively successful writer sees their work, and peer review is very important. I would like to see you continue with them, as I find them very interesting.

Erin, you should keep writing what you enjoy writing. Didn’t you just comment on one of my articles earlier, stuff what others think? Do what you want to do. Everyone has their own reasons for doing things.

Erin you should do what you want to do. Don’t let others poop on your parade!

Erin, to be honest, I have read only few of your works and they were really amazing. Do you enjoy writing reviews about Triond writers? if yes, why do you want to stop writing them?

we cannot please everyone erin, and people will always see the negative side of things no matter how perfect we do them…

I do enjoy writing these reviews. I was just having a temporary moment of weakness is all…

I think you should carry on Erin – I have read some of your reviews and than followed the writers from your recommendations

NO! You shouldn’t stop doing reviews Erin…
Haters makes you famous.. Just don’t mind them! You’re doing good!

Do what you want to do and dont let others get in the way. You can write about whatever you want to.

Honestly Erin,I was able to know about you when you made a review of one of my good friends,Gvgatchalian and I admire you for it. If you really enjoy writing reviews of writers then go for it friend! After all,what really motivates one to write is when they enjoy what they are writing.

Sorry, I missed out on these reviews but in principle, truth and freedom (of expression) must prevail above all. Keep on Erin.

Forget anyone who’s rude.

Just do what your heart says so.

I think you should continue to write reviews. You are bringing some attention to other writers and that is a good thing. Unfortunately, you will deal with trolls and it is a shame that they have nothing else better to do than to insult writers.

Hey Erin, when your intentions are good, why listen to what others have to say? Do what your heart says… there are very few people as selfless as you are – i love the way you promote your fellow writers. Come to think about it, i think might just write a review of you!!
