It' s just that it's so exciting to be writing and you want to share it with others. But not too soon!! LOL. Yes, do come over to the J Q Rose blog. Tomorrow is Gail Roughton with her down home Southern advice on writing. Lots of fun.J.Q.

While I like seeing the 'I like this' comments, I tend to skip over them and focus on the ones that tell me what's not working.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09179338199224761532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5846834032309178013.post-80954463644545496522014-10-29T11:39:14.070-04:002014-10-29T11:39:14.070-04:00Great interview!

You'd think this might cause trouble, but we trust each other so much that brutal honesty works well for us :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09379282124092389960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5846834032309178013.post-21481848040474235602014-10-29T10:27:00.777-04:002014-10-29T10:27:00.777-04:00Thanks for stopping by, Helena.
Critique partners...Thanks for stopping by, Helena.<br /><br />Critique partners, while they can be totally awesome, sometimes muddy the waters. I've found that if one says something, it's an opinion. If two say it I should look at it, and if more than two say it, it's an issue that needs to be addressed.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09179338199224761532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5846834032309178013.post-42657526024393142052014-10-29T09:53:31.705-04:002014-10-29T09:53:31.705-04:00What great questions, Mary, and I really enjoyed y...What great questions, Mary, and I really enjoyed your answers, JQ. Very informative. I sympathise with what you say about the crit group. I took a draft of the first couple of chapters to my writers' group last week. There were only four other writers there - but they each told me something totally different about how I should improve! It left my head whirling. <br />You have some great ideas on marketing. I'm looking forward to checking out your regular writers' posts.
