Thanks for your comment on Memory Book!

Thanks for your critique. It's interesting to me that most of the things you didn't like in the poem were things I put in the second draft in response to previous crits. I would be interested in getting your reaction to my first draft, but I don't know how to repost it.

Thanks for the critique of "Leading." I appreciate it.

thanks for thumbs up to my crit. I posted my first work - 3000 words - fiction. Keep me posted on your new work.

PS. I will definitely take your suggestions into consideration.

Thanks so much for you critique of my poetry! I'm very surprised that you understood so much of what I was going for. To answer one of your questions, the reason I mention the kitchen worker's cell phone is because I realized that she had been dialing in her lap - not praying after all. Both sections are very close to my heart because they forced me to admit certain aspects of myself that were hard for me to do. I'm glad you enjoyed them and that they came across pretty much the way I wanted them to.

My Pleasure. Good luck with your work.

Thank you for critiquing my work. I agree that switching the sentence format weakens the sentences. I'll look the lines over again and see what I can do.

Thanks for all the positive feedback. I'm flattered that the piece has inspired you!

Thanks for the critique. I'll be using some of your suggestions to tighten it up.

Thanks for the pat on the back!
