Honestly, I understand where people are coming from when they ask for reviews. Demanding/begging is pathetic, but I personally find it disheartening when no one reviews.

It's more encouraging to recieve one review that's only bad grammar but a nice message than no reviews at all, so take your pick.

Besides, Emma, you're guaranteed reviews, while some of us get hardly any hits at all. *hint,hint*
