One of my critique partners is turning out to be extremely helpful. She has a good eye for catching certain things that I hadn't been able to see before. She catches when I drift from "show" to "tell" so I can rewrite it to return it to deep POV. And she's good at pointing out when I need more description sprinkled in to provide visuals to the reader. Now that she's critiqued about half of one of my books, I'm starting to see it on my own which makes me happy. So now I'm going through my books with what I've learned. It's really helping, I think.
Whew. Every time I advance a stage in my writing it is so cathartic. Does this make me a nerd that I get so excited about stuff like this? Too bad. It makes me happy.
