#Workshop - October 26th: "Influences and Goals"

Contributor: El-Jaro El-Jaro
Hello All!

For those keeping score at home, this coming Wednesday is the next Review Program Workshop.

The last few workshops have been mostly Q/A. This time, I'd like to discuss the things you've learned from/about/through the Review Program. What's been the biggest help to you for writing reviews? Who's been your biggest influence? What's the hardest part for you when working on a review? What have been some of your goals for the Review Program?

So, bring your stories and suggestions, this could easily be your last non-holiday event of the year!

See you all next Wednesday!

ps. Don't forget, it runs from 7p-9p EST

Great questions. I do find that I'm inspired by reading other people's reviews. Our community has a good feedback loop going on in that way. I'm especially inspired by others to branch out and give myself more room to express myself within reviews rather than keeping it purely technical.

I agree with Miss V. Reading and analyzing reviews by other people helps me write my reviews. I always look at the product information, then read the review and then I think, "What information do I want that is not included?" Reading other folks' comments on reviews also helps me.

I hope to be able to learn a lot from tonight. I may be in and out of the forum because of the time. It is late for the East coast, but not in the Mountains. It is dinner time for people and animals as well.

I can hardly wait to start - I have so much to learn and right now I'm struggling with reviews (maybe I need to ask Alan & Michele to un-graduate me!)

Ok so at the risk of sounding like someone who is new here, what do I do to go to the workshop? Is it place online or is it just this thread?

I'm just havin' left over English muffins and stew from yesterday. Some foods make the kitchen smell just as good the next day... probably going to make some peach pie later on. And hopefully get a review drafted, too!

Just read your VIP review - wow. I'm a vibrator gal but you do make that dildo sound interesting. Trying to decide about adding it to my list since I've not used any dildos at all.

Since I'm a bit early, thought I would share a pic of our dinner guests.



The little doe on the left sure was interested in Terry (The rooster)

I think the only question I'd ask before telling you "Definitely! Go for it!" is---do you like firm vibrators inserted? This one's not really flexible at all. If you like'em firm, though, this is The Dildo To Own.

And if you really need vibrations too, there's plenty of room to use a clit vibrator.

The VIP is my favorite. I absolutely recommend it if you like your toys firm.

And if ... more
still learning about what I Like for vibrators. I like semi-firm...a bit flexible but sorta hard.

tried a plastic vibrator that was about the same size/girth as my Evolved French Kiss - couldn't bear to have it in me (couldn't get it in) - same thing - slightly more flexible material - pure heaven!
