Things are hopping over at WriteOnCon. I submitted five pages to be critiqued on the forums, and have already gotten three responses back. One of them a return critique! I’m pleased to see how polite and professional people are staying in this exchange of information.
Two out of three critiques were very upbeat, and contained both parts that they liked, and disliked. One sharp eye caught a leftover from a previous draft, where I was removing an old character. Oops! How embarassing! I’ve since changed it in my own draft, and I’m very grateful to the lady looking at it for her thoughts.
Outside the forums there are tons of great videos showcasing authors and editors alike, query critiques, and door prizes! There’s so much to look at and see, I’m not real sure where to begin. All I know is that I’m itching to do one of these in real life. I feel like I’m getting a taste of what I could have if I was only good enough. If I could only write good enough.
I wish I was that good.
Anyway, I know I said it yesterday, but I’ll say it again. Get yourself over to WriteOnCon! You’ll learn so much.

You are GOOD and getting better as all dedicated writers. Write, write, write, and by every word you write, you hone those skills, sharpen those characters, tighten those plots, and before you know it, you will be a published author. Even before you find a publisher, you will know that what you’ve created is good. You know the issues and you are well able to master them all, Ms. Kuska. I hope I am encouraging you. I have not “arrived” myself, but I’m in the race! Thank you for sharing your thoughts and thank you for the link to writeoncon.
