Daily Writ­ing Tips is an out­stand­ing blog for writ­ers, pro­vid­ing con­cise posts about hon­ing our skills.

This excel­lent reminder comes from the post “Cri­tiquing” is not “Edit­ing”:

Cri­tiquing is not the same as edit­ing. If the friend is “edit­ing dras­ti­cally,” the result is no longer a cri­tique but a rewrite.

Some­times we can for­get this, eager as we are to accept help from oth­ers, and lose our voice in the process.

I encour­age you to visit Daily Writ­ing Tips every day for insight­ful advice like this.
