There's probably 30 other things I could have added to this list, because there's just so much to pay attention to. And if you want a critique exchange--I'm open to it. Maybe we should do a big Fast Draft January swap in a month or so.<BR/><BR/>EmEmily Marshallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07073350248209507278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3318840210070768346.post-37495802905436848512009-01-27T08:30:00.000-08:002009-01-27T08:30:00.000-08:00I definitely want a critique from Emily now!

I think I'll start looking at my critiques from others like this: someone questioned me on plot, someone marked me on pacing. Then rather than seeing a bunch of different comments, I can see "OK these are all questions on my pacing" or whatever the case may be. (Pacing is something I need to work on this month!)<BR/><BR/>As a critiquer, I look at dialogue a lot too. Writing dialogue is about my favorite part of writing, but it rarely comes out the way I want it to on the first draft.Kate Fallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12856887940900664692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3318840210070768346.post-54662815550183538082009-01-27T06:38:00.000-08:002009-01-27T06:38:00.000-08:00You put so much into perspective, but particularly...You put so much into perspective, but particularly your comment about a willingness to grow and learn as a writer if you are able to put your work out there for critiquing. I had never thought of it quite that way. <BR/><BR/>Emily - looking forward to tomorrow at the adult writing group.amuse mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17107288250737832143noreply@blogger.com
