Hi-ho, Hi-ho

I had a story up at critters last week.  The last time I checked the webpage, I had 28 crits, and out of those 28, only 2 didn't like the story as a whole.  And 1 of those 2 I'm not counting because the woman doesn't like any of my stories, never has a positive comment and is usually quite brusque and rude.  I don't know why she continues to crit my stories, because she doesn't like them at all and doesn't think they work in the slightest.  So *why* does she?  And that's why I don't pay any attention to her crits anymore.

So, I'm very pleased with the crits.  All had some extremely insightful and constructive comments to make, and most agreed on what needs to be changed.  That's a first for me!  I still have to wade through all the crits though to highlight the grammar errors and other technical nitpicks and then get specific on the characterization and story additions.  I hate this tedious part of the writing process.  Probably why I tend to leave stories just sitting on the hard drive. 

So I'm off to work.
