"Why the inner critic is your best friend"
This article is about how the inner critic is known to be a bad thing, yet it is very important to the creative process. The critic is important because without any bit of it you would turn anything in. You need some type of filter. The article states that "a finely honed critical faculty is one of the things that separates a creative professional from the legions of amateurs." I learned that when you write, your read and evaluate as you go. This is your inner critic fixing your work as you go without even realizing it. Even when your work is done you go through it once more to critique or remodel. This is where creation and criticism work hand in hand. What I gained from this article is learning that before starting work, you should think about the advantages of having a finely honed critical faculty. This would be understanding what makes a good piece of work and knowing how to assess your own work and improve it. One may want to read this article if looking to better their work and understand why your inner critic is so important.
