[Writing] Eesh.

Expect some more chapters over at edencycle tonight...today's workday has been such a washout (constant interruptions from what I should be working on, natch) that I want to do do something writing-related just to say I actually got something DONE today. ;)

[LLB] Ouch!

Just got dancinghorse's critique back of Love Like Blood a few moments ago.

The Good:
--She likes the title. ;)
--Apparently I have "synopsis-fu". In all honesty I have to thank a few of you out there who helped me tighten it up a few years previous when I originally sent it out to JABberwocky. Still, glad to hear that!

The Bad:
--I desperately need an internal editor to cut all that excess crap.
--The problem with writing a Smartass Bostonian is that I seem to have also shown Gabriel as a raving dumbass and killed a lot of the drama with his goofiness.
--Good worldbuilding, but it needs a LOT of tightening.

Overall:
--Good, but DEFINITELY needs more work.


So YAY! and THANK YOU!!! to dancinghorse for her great critique! I totally agree with a lot what she says, and I'll keep them in mind as I continue to clean it up and make it even better.

Back to the drawing board! ;)

[eden cycle] Chapters!

More chapters up at edencycle for your enjoyment! :)
