Maybe not such a bad thing

I've had a friend who had OCs and I realized they were kind of Mary Sueish after awhile, but I never really said anything after I realized, because honestly it wasn't my business what my friend did with her characters, and I figured that she would realize in time like I did and make improvements.

Guess what? She did.

I mean if she's asking you for critique I would suggest telling her what needs improvement (like not using ridiculous euphemisms for genitals and ...maybe focus on the emotions and feelings of the characters instead of the physical details?) It always helps to focus on telling her what's good and how she can make it even better rather than saying it like "This sucks"

Tell the truth...but be clever in HOW you tell it. You can phrase it in away that will raise defenses or you can phrase it in away that sounds like "Okay this could be better and here's how" or in a way that tells the truth without registering as an insult.

Also am I the only one who didn't comment on "love pudding" and
"man-sponge". Whoopsie not anymore. Hurr.
