And I’m 100% certain that I’ve issued unsolicited critiques–and am likely to continue doing so. I’ll try to remember that I should be criticizing what’s actually written or done, not–without awfully good reason–the ideas somebody’s thinking of carrying out. But I’m sure I’ll do that now and then, too: It happens.

And thanks. There are two books involved, one in mid-process, one in the research stage. Very different books…

Unsolicited critiques can definitely sting. I’m appalled that people still issue them, often sincerely believing they are “helping.”

Of course, writing a book is hard work. It’s so much easier to tear somebody else down than to produce something oneself.

Best of luck with the book, Walt. I look forward to reading it when it’s published.
