Question for the day:
What does it mean when your critique partners say your latest bit is your best writing yet?
A compliment, for sure, but it leaves me wondering just how godawful everything that came before surely must be.
Does anyone else have this problem accepting praise?

Nah - just take it that it means you are getting better.
Imagine if they had said something like it needs a lot of work or it sucks!! LOL
THEY LIKE IT!! That is what matters right!???
Thank them and move forward! :)
Yes, I do and it sucks. To be like that, it sucks. Not your writing. Your writing doesn't suck. I was talking about MY writing. I'm out.
I agree with Kimber - just means your getting better. Good job, keep going.
Now if I could just find the motivation to keep at it. I'm trying, but I think my pen has run out of ink.
Yes, yes, you’re supposed to get better each time - or at least that is what I hear.
I think I do that to myself more than I hear it from other people. I'll write something new and feel like it is way better than everything I wrote before. Which makes me feel sort of embrassed to be submitting the stuff I wrote before.
Why have you lost your motivation to keep at it?
