It helps me to write feedback before reading other people's comments, because when I do it the other way around I feel like just repeating what others have already said, and it feels superfluous.
Huh, I find it baffling when people are particularly appreciative of my feedback. I don't think I'll ever be comfortable writing in English. I'm never quite sure how exactly what I write comes across, if it reads the way I meant it. It usually either feels clumsy or pompous. I'm always afraid of either over-simplifying, or using big words in the wrong place. I'll always be self-conscious about my English I'm afraid :)
