Hello. I am Lauren. I recently started writing and am hoping for some feedback. (Friends and family tend to be too kind.)
Welcome. People here tend to be kind, but not too kind. The critiques of work you post in the workshops is generally constructive and helpful.
Greetings and welcome, Lauren. Once you're ready to drop stuff in the workshop, just write something above your story. Maybe something like "don't be nice, please tear it to shreds"? Or maybe that's too much? Anyway, you've got options. We don't bite. At least I don't.
Hello. You're right, humans, generally, are afflicted by the "Tell people what they want to hear" gene.
