* not "You should do this"
* If multiple people say that something didn't work, they're probably right, but if they tell you how, they're probably wrong
* Author can ask for that during dialog after silent listening
* tally mark of confirmation is fine, don't need to hammer in a point someone already said ("ditto x" or "I disagree with x")
* Receiving critique:
* Be prepared for folks to tell you what's wrong with the story (compliments make it easier)
* Take a lot of notes (make sure to write down praise, very easy to forget praise, important to have sense of what you do well)
* Every critique is valid, but you'll never get 100% agreement, up to you to decide if you'll tweak
* When brought into the discussion, that's when you can ask questions
* From both sides, trying to make the story better, so accept critique in that spirit
