Critique's Intent
1. Encouraging the writer to improve their techniques. 2. Helping someone realize the nature of their own writing: why serious writing (subject to criticism) may or may not be for them.

I would like to ...I guess help edit is more what I'm good at instead of necessarily critique. Finding and helping to fix grammatical errors tends to be my forte. If there's some way to connect with the author in a "real time" kind of way (AIM for example) then I would possibly be able to do more, but it might still be editing, just more advanced editing. Word choices, for example, are easier for me to help someone with in real time. If this place is dead, I'll find other places to be of use I guess, or try to fix my own writing.
