17) Fave feedback.
When I'm writing for someone else? Clear, specific, "More of this", "reword this", "I like where this is going". @EloytheSaint has been great about this on PTG2E.

I don't solicit a lot of feedback on stuff I'm designing for myself. Roses and thorns at the end of a playtest mostly. I want to make people think of what they like so I can turn up the dial on that as well as what they didn't so I can fix that.

I use a couple of people as sounding boards. My husband gets a lot of weird sentences that mean nothing to him thrown his way as I talk out something. My cat sometimes too. I should consider getting a rubber duckie.

There are a few people I trust to be honest but kind if I ask. They're in a tiny circle on G+ or in a near constant hangouts chat window.

I try to be specific in what I'm asking for feed back on. "Does this make sense", "I think this is missing something, what would you change?" It's similar to the way I cook. "Taste this, what's it need?"
