How do you handle critiques? If you get defensive (and it's so hard not to!) you're hurting yourself. We have another Critique Chat coming in November, so I thought this was a good topic to discuss.
 
Carolyn Kaufman has some very good advice on Handling Critiques Without Getting Defensive. I won't be pasting this word-for-word in the chatroom, so you probably want to read it ahead of time. If you can't come to chat, it's still valuable reading. 
 
Join us tonight to discuss handling critiques, for the first hour. We'll take any other questions you may have in the second hour.

We look forward to chatting with you!

 Having problems with your writing? Need plot advice or marketing tips? Looking for suggestions on who/what to read next? Come on in! If we don't know the answer, we'll make something up. We are creative people, ya know.  

8 pm EST (check the clock above the login screen) the door will open. Type in the name you want us to call you by, and click the login button. No password needed for scheduled chats.
