And Now that it's out, I need to copyright "Read like a Reader" :)<br /><br />And Cat, I agree, sometimes it is helpful to get input, but in this instance the input was more "I know more than you" kind of input. It's really all in the delivery. Caitlin has DEFINITELY proposed some solutions every once in a while, but she does it in a way that allows me to take it or leave it, not like a she knows more than me. It's a creative process, and the writer should be the creator. It's your world - live in it!<br /><br />Thanks again everyone!Kevin P.

"Let voice flourish" is another key phrase to include on these shirts. ;)Marybkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12013291291298167627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7927342525988890809.post-27131935301267880002011-03-31T11:46:04.913-05:002011-03-31T11:46:04.913-05:00First of all, congrats Kevin on your wonderful age...First of all, congrats Kevin on your wonderful agent! Sounds like the two of you are very compatible. And Mary, excellent job w/the interview as always. <br /><br />Kevin, excellent and savvy advice on critting. Read like a reader first. I think we should print that on t-shirts and have it be a required critique uniform. Thanks so much for taking the time to share your thoughts.Anita Grace Howardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01797870961916148616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7927342525988890809.post-58118364519018080572011-03-31T09:25:14.375-05:002011-03-31T09:25:14.375-05:00I think it's OK to do things differently or to...I think it's OK to do things differently or to stand your ground, Cat. Your critiquer's job is to let you know when something didn't work. If you review their comments and make your own determination, then, it's a beautiful thing in my book.<br /><br />I think that when the critique styles don't match, though, as Kevin pointed out in his case, then it's time to move on to a different group.Marybkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12013291291298167627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7927342525988890809.post-30241605322238602352011-03-31T08:50:10.400-05:002011-03-31T08:50:10.400-05:00I think that it's ok to throw out some ideas o...I think that it's ok to throw out some ideas on how a problem could be fixed. The hard part is if the critiquer feels insulted if I do it differently or if I disagree.Katharina Gerlachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00223722392075669331noreply@blogger.com
