Imagine that a peer or an editor gave you especially harsh and negative feedback on a piece of your writing. You were so affected by this critique that you considered throwing your entire piece out. You decide to compose a short note to the peer/editor that critiqued your work. What might you say to help guide them in terms of writing future critiques? You want to make sure that they do not insult another writer the same way that they insulted you, and you want to offer them some tips for proper critiquing.


When critiquing your own work, it is important to pay attention to realism. Characters should be believable in their intentions and motivations. If they seem confused or nonsensical, the reader becomes frustrated and may possibly stop caring. For example, if an off-duty cop isn’t paying attention to his surroundings, that feels unlikely or unrealistic. Come up with two examples of characters/situations that may be unrealistic or unbelievable. Write at least one sentence explaining your example.
