Tim and Art discuss trends in feedback Art has received from his beta readers on his recent stories "V-Hold" and "Donut Fridays." Together they make sense of how different people can read the same work and have wildly different reactions and, more importantly, what decisions can come out of that. Art offers a method of providing feedback to other authors in three buckets - What I Liked, What Didn't Land For Me, and My Recommendations - as a methodology to provide direct, respectful feedback instead of to being too harsh or too nice. We reference Tim's story "Jake Paul Beats Mike Tyson" in the episode. This episode is our last of the season as we transition into calendar breaks rather than episode counts. Going forward, we will take every February and March to refocus on our work and recharge the battery. Join us again in April 2025 as we kick off Season 5! In the meantime, feel free to reach out to us at [email protected] to inquire about our professional reading services or just to say hi!
