@Queen of Trash: It must be really huge!

@Another Movie Addict: I'm sorry that this one was particularly rough on you. I hope you're feeling better now and the crisis has passed! <3

The Queen Declares...

@Another Movie Addict: Yeah, I know what you mean. It was one of the reasons I was hesitant to have my mom in my beta readers but she actually gave me critiques and I was like yes mom, thank you. She was like "This part is not good Willow, fix it."
First person is tough but it's the one I love to write in most, I just need more practice. I'll keep both of your critiques in mind, they're really helpful. <3

@Wildfire: It's like 48x60inches I think.

@Wildfire: It's all good.
@Queen of Trash: We had a lot of problems with grandma critiques in my photography class.

@Queen of Trash: That's pretty big!

@Another Movie Addict: Good.

Yeah... critiques don't help unless they actually critique something. So many people don't seem to understand how to critique.

A critiques. I never ask for any anymore because all I get is "This is amazing", "Everything you make looks good" etc.

I'm a blunt kind of person, so the way I say things tend to come out mean.

@vengeance: That's not a critique.

@Another Movie Addict: I tend to be accused of that too...

@Wildfire: it is and I love it.

@Another Movie Addict: A couple of my BETA readers did that and I didn't use them for the second book.

@Wildfire: There were a few folks that needed the harsher words though.
@Queen of Trash: I was worried how to approach it.

@Queen of Trash: I would have done the same thing... critique != free book preview. They're different - lol!

@Another Movie Addict: Yeah, sometimes that happens.

I am a honest person when giving critique.

@Another Movie Addict: well, no worries.

@Wildfire: yeah the BETA readers get the unedited copy and they tell me what's wrong with it so I can change it. So, I know shit is wrong with it because it's not edited. So if anyone comes back just like OMG IT'S AMAZING and that's it I'm like okay I can't use you next time because this isn't helpful. A mix of this is really good and this is how you can improve, that I can use.

@vengeance: Same.
@Wildfire: People kept coming in with their vacation photos, or phone photos of their children. Trying to pass them off as fine art photography. So I got a little mean with those people.

@vengeance: ... that implies that you're not honest most of the time... :P

@Queen of Trash:
@Another Movie Addict:
I understand. Not everyone is actually an artist/writer/photographer in the "real" sense of the word. Just like not everyone is a (good) critic. But with all things - it takes interest, knowledge, and practice

I still need more.

There is always something to learn and ways to grow as an artist... and it takes regular practice.
