Thoughts About Comments

I think that for a good comment it needs to be substantial.  It should include specific details about the readings.  For instance, talk about specific problems in the writing or what was good about the writing.  Also it should include what the reader liked about the theme.  After the good and bad parts of the writing have been addressed, the reader should then focus on how to fix the problems and make the writing better.  I do not always leave comments like this.  I usually leave comments saying what I liked about the story but not its problems and how to fix them.
