I had no clue under the sun where this would fit on the board, so I'm putting it here.
I'm looking to make a list of the most frequent critique responses that we, as writers, receive on our work. Whether it's in SYW here, something from beta readers or writing group, or something you might hear from agents, editors or instructors/mentors.
For example, I hear from my writing group that I need more internalization from certain characters.
Something that a friend hears a lot is that her dialogue sounds stilted.
What do you hear frequently in your critiques? I'm not doing this to make people feel bad, but to get a general idea of what we (as a group) hear the most.
