At my reading, I made little categories for people to write down their responses. They were: Something I Liked, This Made Me Think About -, Thoughts About the Title and Questions.
I only got two pieces of feedback that weren’t useful and/or frustrating and they were both criticisms framed as questions. That is, they weren’t so much actual questions as a Jeopardy style re-phrasing – as in it’s actually an answer, not a genuine question. As in: “Why is this such a shitty question?”
So…next time – I’m leaving questions off my list. Or – I’ll keep it and then just immediately throw the responses in the garbage.
