Concrit, in and of itself, is a gift as far as I'm concerned. It's important to me as it helps me grow as a writer. If all the comments are "SQUEE THAT"S GREAT", then I'm wondering what they're really meaning. There is always room for improvement and I appreciate that people feel comfortable enough to point out where there might be that improvement.
As far as seeing the author request any, there really isn't an opportunity for it, is there? I always request concrit on my "regular" works and would if given the option on the anon exchanges. Perhaps there should be a concrit: Yes or No option when submitting fic/art.
Finally, concrit is different from criticism as far as I'm concerned. Concrit says, here is a small plothole or this phrase was awkward. Criticism is ZOMGYOUSUCK.
