You are right, @quiddity25
We can have personal preferences about writing but we shouldnt kill the motivation of the inexperienced writers, or really even the experienced writers who have a particular style and it just happens to use words or epithets I dont like.
I like your take and reply to the post I reblogged and I acknowledge now it was short sighted.
The worst thing we can do is give critique that kills the motivation and spirit to create.
At that point its not the writer who failed, but we as poor critics/readers.
