Every Writer needs to be Critiqued
Mood:  a-ok

Every writer must learn to accept outside and independent critiques.  To that end there are any number of places on the web: workshops, writers groups, forums; which will provide these for you.

I have found one place that beats them all if you write fantasy, horror, or scifi and that is "critters".

Critters is a massive membership(free) organization that guarantees you a number of critiques for every work you submit a long as you are providing regular and timely critiques for others.

I'm am convinced the three most important things a writer can do to improve their work are to: read massive quantities; write always; and critique the work of others.

I also believe every writer should be familiar with "strunk and white's elements of style".  Pick it up if you don't have it.

So get to critiquing and being critiqued and visit critters at http://www.critters.org/

rock on and keep writing
