RE: Baby in the Blender: How I Learned to Love Critique
I think you have to check your ego at the door of the workshop room, as both a writer and an editor, because it's not about you, it's about the work. A critique that sets out to make the writer feel good is no a good critique.
The work is the thing.
Great points. And the flip side too--a critique that deliberately sets out to hurt the writer's feelings is also no good. As you say, it should be about the work, not the writer and not the editor.
