Getting other people to read your writing is a
great way to improve. It is always rewarding when a reader sees a
character or setting in the same way that you, the writer, sees it. Or
when a reader laughs or cries because a story you wrote affects them.
And if they don't, they just might have ideas and suggestions that help
you accomplish that goal.
I participate in an online writing workshop where participants regularly
offer and accept feedback on their writing. Many times, they make
changes based on that feedback. Below is feedback that I've received on
pieces I've written.
