That's why I love my writer-friends--they love me enough not to cater to my ego when editing, because they know how vital serious feedback is, but they also care about me as a person and will go the extra step to give me emotional support to keep going and keep motivated, even (or especially) when the edits hurt. Thanks for dropping by! :DRebekkah Nileshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06684711663696588263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4748832844228334272.post-38991270134302934122013-05-21T18:03:39.529-04:002013-05-21T18:03:39.529-04:00Oh and I subscribed to you in FeedDemon, my favori...Oh and I subscribed to you in FeedDemon, my favorite feed reader.

Keep the use of the video game as a symbol to a bare minimum. The epilogue made the ending unsatisfactory, it needs a true ending. Your end just trails off into the void...These were all valid points, points that I had, on more than one occasion, considered editing. But this person's caring for me as a writer and person (she sought me out during our writing group and lavished praise on me and she also seeks out my opinion in said groups because she knows I am shy, I never say anything) and her incredible wit, writing sense, etc made me think longer and harder about what she said. This makes me want to seek out her opinion more often. Caring makes a great critique partners.<br /><br />And thanks for stopping by my blog! It's great to see some action on there.
