Being critiqued, especially peer review, is an odd experience.
I have to admit that I went into my critique last night with a bit of anxiety. Did I get too experimental? Was my protagonist unlikable?
On one hand, I want everyone to like my work, but on the other, I need an honest critique to make my work better. Basically, I want the person who does my critique to find everything but have nothing to find.
I was really happy to discover than everyone liked my protagonist and enjoyed my chapter. Or maybe, they weren’t being critical enough.
