Since we don't have a sticky for this like r/nosleep, I thought I'd ask--how would you like to be critiqued?<br><br>**Specifically, would you like critique from:**<br><br>* **The "naive reader"**: Someone who critiques a story like they would on a bookshelf, as if they'd never read it before. (They might miss some issues or only find some obvious ones, but you'll get a sense of how a reader would approach it.)<br>* **An editor/writer/creative writing major**: Someone who critiques a story like a Literature teacher from school. (They might analyze more of the technical aspects and offer suggestions. It might feel more thorough and like a homework assignment.)<br>* **A beta/alpha/gamma reader**: Someone who critiques the story as an agent, an editor, a beta reader, an alpha reader, a gamma reader, etc. (They'd critique more specifically e.g., marketability, content, consistency, etc.)<br>* **All of the above**: Just take any of it you want.<br><br>If you have a different preference, feel free to leave a comment.
