Would you like your work to be critiqued?

No, Diana, so far not all writers have had great responses. TWO is not great! They were both GREAT critiques - but only two was very disappointing? Am I really that bad? But apart from that its a great idea and others are getting alot out of it - its obviously just me ...oh well. Perhaps I smell.

Hi Gabrielle, Sorry you only had two but I'm glad they were good. We only post them up for a day and some people get lots and some people only get a few. It depends more I think more on if users have time. Perhaps you would like to try another day? Thanks, Diana

Getting ready to be told that my stuff is rubbish. Duh! I knew that already!

That would be selfish. I'll wait a while.

OK, I'm willing to get torn to shreds! Critique me and hang the quinsequonces...

Try slashing Drive D... to bits! I'm awaiting your verdict.

Wouldn't it be better to showcase one writer a week - bio data, open for criticism/discussion possibly of all their ABC stories and/or poems? I would certainly have sent Gabrielle a crit as I like her work but I think that was one of the days I missed out.

I think maybe a daily basis is too short - I've certainly not been able to keep up and do as many as I would like. What about two or three days ?

Gabs, you are not alone as Fox Mulder would say. I have had only two critiques so far. *head bowed in shame*

Good point, Andrew. Indeed, one day is a bit short. One tries to keep up, but the pressures of daily life etc - sigh, groan, moan, whinge.

yes please. The getaway by martin_Griffin

Dear Ms. Diana Bird, I would like "Treasures of Sierra Leone" to be critiqued. Thanks, Mo Zuckerman

Hello, Thanks for your thoughts. I agree that it should be up longer so Roy Bell's poem Corvus Corone Corvix will be up for three days. See front page for links. Mo, if you would like your work critiqued please email me directly at dbird@abctales.com Thanks

I was VERY pleased with the critique service. Fellow members were kind, supportive, and friendly. And since it's done by e-mail, it's kept private. I would recommend this great critique service to anyone who wishes positive feedback. And it's free.

Yes. Yes I would
