And Breathe…(Or ‘When the Feedback isn’t what you Expected’)

I’m used to getting feedback - heck, I’ve been writing long enough to have received a ton of the stuff! Some of it helps, some of it hurts. None of it is useless.

But I’ve had some feedback recently about my current WIP that has left me in a bit of a tizz.

I always apply the Accept, Amend, Reject ‘rule’ to anything I receive. Accept usually applies to spellings, grammar, the fact that you’ve change

Katherine’s Quotes

“Why do you go away? So that you can come back. So that you can see the place you came from with new eyes and extra colors. And the people there see you differently, too. Coming back to where you started is not the same as never leaving.”
― Terry Pratchett, A Hat Full of Sky
