Да, конкретики там нет, это точно. Более того, я уже давно вроде бы осознал, что на всех читателей и не угодишь, и не нужно вовсе стараться угождать, но вот... Видимо, не вовремя такое попалось на глаза.

12. Writing Groups - Can be helpful or harmful depending on the individual writer
i. Do the following to make the most out of writing groups:
1. Be descriptive of your emotions when reading others works, not prescriptive
2. Tell them what your experience was when you read the material, not what they should do in your opinion. You may not know exactly what style or theme they are going for in the work.
3. Share what is good about the author's work upfront before diving into areas for improvement
4. Share your natural reaction, don't overthink it
5. Author listening to the feedback:
* Write it down and don't change anything right away until you can work over the feedback.
* Don't defend our explain your writing to the writing group, you want your readers to absorb the meaning from your story not your verbal explanations.
* Avoid tainting your feedback; people will withhold feedback if you get defensive about your writing every time they provide feedback.
