But I'm good with longer pieces too. Thank you for the crit offer, Tanya. And I'll gladly return the kindness. I do need to read some of your work.

I remember for one after I read it I thought to myself, "is this a western? where the heck did that come from?" My first crit partner who read it, said it would make a wonderful western. LOL. okay then. We clearly both thought the same thing. <br /><br />I had a crit partner who writes like that too, and I found it hard to work with her because she only worked on sections of mine at a time and only sent me sections at a time. I like to see the entire picture.
