the last round of feedback I got back was dispiriting -- an air of, "I am baffled to the point of disgust by your work."
o.O Yeah... that would be exactly the kind of "feedback" you don't need. And my condolences re: your struggle to find a network that benefits you. (LAUREN = THE LIGHT.)
Oh and don't even mention the time I gave a chapter to the guy I was dating at the time -- not my husband -- saying, "If you like it, I'll give you more; if you don't, we never have to speak of it again." Not only was it never mentioned again, he dumped me a month later. HAHAHA THE UNIVERSE JUSTLY PUNISHED ME FOR MY COMPLETE LACK OF JUDGMENT.
THE FUCK. I hope this dude's fallen into a garbage dispenser since then!
FWIW ain't nothing wrong with what you have now on LJ. The only thing is that it's all virtual and I find that with big projects especially, real life one-on-one interaction gets shit done more effectively. (That and you can't depend on virtual people to be there when you want them to be.)
Nay, writing is neither for the strong nor the weak but for those who hate both themselves and the world.
frequently I will "cast" actors as characters (which means things end up pretty lookist in my head; I need to fight that).
Hey, WHATEVER WORKS. It's not like you're Lions Gate Entertainment whitewashing the entire cast of The Hunger Games.
It's been an honour, and apologies for depressing you. Rooting for you/good betas. (And best of recovery to your eldest.)
