Welcome to the Merry Go Round Blog Tour.  Happy to have you back for another month. This month, we’re talking about tips we’d give a new writer.  This is a tough one, but only because we’re supposed to choose just one.

I’m going to presume my hypothetical writer is seeking advice, but if he or she is not, that’s where my tip will be most helpful. What might that be?

Find an experienced writer or editor you feel comfortable with and listen when they provide feedback.  Be open to criticism when someone offers suggestions. It’s your writing and you may or may not choose to implement the changes they are suggesting, or you may not implement them exactly as suggested, but no matter how good you are, someone else’s feedback can be valuable to you.
