In an attempt to move away from the proposed poll, I'd like to be one of the first contributors to actively seek feedback on my contribution. The goal here is to understand what readers got from it and to get honest and technical review of the pieces.
Questions that I have of my own work are:
How could they be improved? Grammatical errors? Spelling errors? Could they have been "denser"? What parts of each story were missing that you filled in and how did you fill them in? Did using a theme to bind them together work and was that "cheating"? Which piece(s) was(were) weakest and strongest? And most importantly, did the pieces actually "raise the bar" or challenge your conceptions of writing or art?
I'm not looking for a lot of back slapping here, honestly. Let's show our fellow contributors and readers that there is a real interest in producing something superior by stripping this contribution to the bone so that I (we) can produce finer pieces as our writing careers progress. I want my readers to raise my bar, since I'm new to this.
Thank you.
