I get asked to give a lot of feedback on stories. I am straight and to the point when I do. I don't hand out fluff and "nice try" ribbons. I don't always have time enough to get to everybody, but I also know I tend to say the same things over and over to different authors. Which means two things: everyone who gets feedback from me can rest assured that it isn't just them getting the criticism I give out--lots of other writers do exactly the same things--and it should be super easy to compile them in a book. And that is what this story is for. To make some of my most common feedback available to all.

WARNING: This has been written by a much younger self in about a month for Camp Nanowrimo, so it is still full of grammar errors and awkward sentences. I haven't gotten around to actually editing it and i probably never will... so ignore the "reviewed and edited" chapters, because they do not really exist. They all have mistakes, so there is really no need for you to warn me about them. I hope you enjoy the story anyway.
