Create: Write (and record if you’re a podcaster) a 2-minute piece (that’s about 200-250 words) about a fight between two people. Don’t work it too much. When you post it:

1. Ask for feedback

2. Set parameters for what feedback you want

3. Limit the feedback to an exact number of responses

4. Thank your responders once you’ve reached that number

Then go and give feedback to someone else who’s given permission for responses.

Be respectful of your own and other people’s limits.

“Another fun story from this author. I love Jonas. I want to be Ivana. My only critique on this would be that far too often the characters lose themselves in wool gathering. A flash back can happen in an instant. It may take time in the reading, but it doesn't always need to interrupt the action of the characters. Overall, I love the story. I love this world. I could happily live here traveling in my Ronan Wagon telling fortunes”
