Taking criticism

The ladies at the Stiletto Gang graciously invited me to blog with them regularly. So on the last Friday of every month, that's where I'll be, and where I am today. Just remember, when you see a Stiletto post from me, your bills are almost due. :-)

This month I've been turning over revision feedback from my editor, which prompted my post called Atkins Editing: Thick Meat, No Bread. I have so much to learn about the publishing business, and growing a thick skin is something I'm working on.

Sincere thanks to all of you who participated in this week's contest, and congratulations to the winners! I wish I could send books to everyone. Your support and encouragement is greatly appreciated.

  1. Enjoyed reading the Stiletto Gang blog. Love the Atkins metaphor...need to remeber teh sandwich when I need to criticize, but you know me, I really don't like to be negative...

  2. Rats...you need to add a spell check to the comments...I really do know how to spell "remember" and "the"!

  3. Hi Cathy! hehe. You're right. I tried to see if I could edit the comments and fix that for you but if there's a way to do it, I don't see it. No worries, I know you can spell! You're like me... I don't like catching typos after the fact. I'm glad you liked the post. Seemed fitting at the time. :-)
