Critiquing 102 – What should I critique?
My latest in a series of three posts on Scribophile is up!
Critiquing 102—Mining for Gold
Please, someone, tell me what to look for when I’m critiquing and whether to use a shovel or pen.
Sentences. Paragraphs. Scenes. Poems. Chapters. Flash Fiction. Short Stories. Articles. Novellas. Novels.
What do they share?
They are a combination of mixing, matching and the manipulation of words.
Sometimes, though, those combinations don’t work exactly like the author intends.
Last week, we discussed a critiquing process. Now, let’s look at some industry specific instruction a critiquer can use in the review of a fellow author’s works.
I really am excited to be a part of this and to offer my words of wisdom (if anyone actually thinks I have any!)
Enjoy!
This is a great post–and a valuable source of advice for those new to critiquing. 🙂
Thank you! 🙂
