Wtf ? I don’t know what cues this reader took to create this mental picture, but it is clearly someone from a different culture. The reader also decided, RANDOMLY and with NO prompting, that one of my characters is “hippie” and suggests that he should randomly say “mantras” to reinforce this. The critique which I just paid for.Īlso, maybe this is just a peeve of mine, but my story takes place in Los Angeles and this reader clearly has never set foot here, yet presumes to tell me what would and wouldn’t work. In my life I have talked with many people whose first language is not English and I can discern meaning from vague poorly constructed sentences or incorrect grammar, but such a person should not be getting paid to critique pieces of writing, because they themselves also miss many details and nuances, and make it plain to anyone reading their notes that they’re stumbling through the task of writing the critique. The notes are riddled with nonsensical sentence constructions like “This will enable reasons to character behaviour.” ok. (the reader, for example, uses “steaks” instead of “stakes” as in ‘the steaks need to be higher’) while critiquing a piece of WRITING. The notes are not even grammatically correct. This might seem petty, but the notes I got back were written by someone who’s first language is clearly not English, and as such this reader misunderstood major things in the script and makes very strange statements in the notes.
