Critique: Getting the Help You Need

Paty Jager and I presented "Critique:Getting the Help You Need" to the Central Oregon Writers Guild monthly meeting on February 28. Critique is one of the most important things a writer can do to improve his/her work, yet it is one of the things we all dread! Paty and I had fun sharing our years of collective experience to a group of writers, starting with a skit demonstrating how not to critique.

Hey Lindy! Thanks for the plug.

I just tagged you from my blog. Go take a gander!

Hi Lindy,
I was Googling myself (my favorite way to procrastinate) and found the presentation you and Paty did about critiquing. I would have loved to have been there--especially for the role play! Thanks so much for mentioning my book TOXIC FEEDBACK: HELPING WRITERS SURVIVE AND THRIVE. Congrats on all your writing success, and the important work of your organization.
Warm wishes, Joni Cole
