This isn’t some of your work that resonates with me the most. ~ PowerPhrase
I recently forwarded a book proposal draft that I was excited about to a friend for feedback. If you do creative work, you know how closely the creation is tied into the identity of the creator. I wanted accurate feedback, but I was also sensitive to having my “baby” criticized. I sent it to my friend Jay, who was very gracious in explaining that I wasn’t as far along as I imagined myself to be. She said,
- This isn’t some of your work that resonates best with me, at least not yet.
She went on to give very specific feedback about the strengths and weaknesses of the writing. I read her feedback like it was a gift, which it of course was.
