I fully agree with Ainaechoiriel,
nobody is good in all categories,
and I had no problem to write author comments
within the various categories.
Though I had some problems to vary my words
with respect to the story vote ;-)
Yet taking the hint "vote on how the author succeeds
with respect to the allotted category" helped quite a bit.

But copied comments will definitely lighten the voter's load ;-)

Best wishes Elanor
