There’s a world of difference between feedback meant to shape a story and feedback meant to shape the writer. What you describe here is cleaner, an edit offered because the story asked for it, not the editor’s vanity. And when it’s done that way, it really means something.
Excellent. Fair and respectful. Criticism is, foremost, subjective and depends on the writer's intent, especially on public forums. Well said.
Thank you, Jenean!
Thanks Thaddeus, I am looking forward to it.
