Writers Circle

For any writers who participate in a regular writers circle, here is an idea: submit something anonymously for feedback.

Someone in our group did so for our meeting this week and I have to say, I think it made a difference. When you read work by the same person a few times you get familiar with their mistakes and their strengths. After a while, when you pick up something the same person has written, you tend to expect and look for those strengths and weaknesses.

Try it out and see if you get the same feedback you have been getting, or if it varies. Hopefully you will get a little more than usual.
Good luck!
