@vbartles.comI've had some extremely terrible feedback that's lead to some of my best writing. It just takes a determination to accept the "okay, this bit obviously isn't working for that person" and figure out what needs to be clarified to make sure it does work for my character and my story. #KidLitChat
@johnzeleznikauthor.bsky.socialI did it well and she loved the story. It helps that she's an voracious reader and was an English major in college. #kidlitchat
@boringstorybook.comI try to frame the feedback I get less as validation, and more as, “are people going to understand the concept/joke/observation I am attempting to communicate?” “Is my voice comprehensible in this case?” #kidlitchat
@dtdelosh.bsky.socialnice to hear the agents POV. #kidlitchat
@bonnieadamson.comOh, wow--how fun! #kidlitchat
@dtdelosh.bsky.socialYes def questions over suggestions. They make you think of your own solutions. #kidlitchat
@johnzeleznikauthor.bsky.socialI reached out to a friend from HS that I hadn't spoken to in decades to read one of my books. I had a little person character in the story & her daughter is a little person, so I just wanted her feeling on how I did representing the character. She's since become one of my trusted betas. #kidlitchat
@vbartles.comVery true! Palm oil does ruin a lot of things for me, but it's not worth the pain when there are so many other delicious things to eat that don't make me violently ill! Like frosted sugar cookies topped with Pop Rocks! #KidLitConfections #KidLitChat i-am-so-grateful.blogspot.com/2025/09/expl...
@jenniferlgadd.bsky.socialIt always fun to see what the previous person picked out to run with. It wound up being stuff the person who wrote before didn't even think was important. So much fun, and we had some truly clever ideas. I might see if they want to pick it up again. #kidlitchat
@bonnieadamson.comSigh. Same here. #kidlitchat
