Criticism is good

Criticism. I’m sure that every one of you is familiar with it. It’s when we hear peoples’ thoughts about our outfit, behavior, lifestyle, or our manuscript. Whichever is the case, the fact is that criticism is never pleasant. But critiques are good and necessary for us in order to be improved. And that’s why we should treat criticism with respect and learn to earn from it. Critiques are gold and it’s time for us to understand it. 

Editing Confusion

Today I want to talk to you about a confusion that takes place inside my mind. All started along with the editing I am currently doing for my first book DAZED. Until the fourth draft (which I am finishing now) everything was clear and I was confident and happy. Some time I decided to do two more drafts, as soon as I finish this one, but while I am getting closer, I am having second thoughts.

Writing and Editing...two different worlds.

Writing and editing…the most important parts in a writer’s life but two very different parts. Writing is the core of a writer’s life. It is where we are called to create our story, to build our characters, to give them substance and make them real, make the reader care about them and keep them interested and curious about their lives so they want to keep reading and reading and get attached with them. When we write we must be focused on that and not trouble our mind with anything else.
