#WritersCoffeeClub day 21: Share an unexpected critique you’ve received. Why did it surprise?
When my alpha reader told me one character trying to comfort another fell completely flat (and asked if I was intentionally trying to make a point that the comfort-giver was really bad at it). No, that hadn't been my intention at all! Oops.

#WritersCoffeeClub day 22: Are there types of settings you avoid writing? Why? So far, I've only written one type of setting (a modern major city), but it's not like I've "avoided" writing others. I just... have been focusing on one thing. That's all. Still, I don't feel any particular pull or desire to write about rural life. But is that "avoidance"? I think it's just apathy or disinterest.
